Review by Lindsay Planer
As the title suggests, 2003's Live in Boston, Vol. 3, is the third installment in the re-evaluation of Fleetwood Mac's February 1970 Boston Tea Party tapes. Initially, some of these sides circulated in less than favorable quality on heavily abridged budget collections, including the thoroughly dismissible Jumping at Shadows [live] (1985), Cerulean [live] (1985), and Rattlesnake Shake (1985). For this project, producers chose to go all the way back to the first-generation multi-tracks and the results are uniformly phenomenal. Those with High Definition Compact Disc (HDCD) playback technology can experience the real nuances and interactions between the musicians as they become practically tangible. Speaking of, the lineup boasts Mick Fleetwood (drums), Jeremy Spencer (guitar/vocals), John McVie (bass), and Peter Green (guitar/vocals), as well as Danny Kirwan (guitar/vocals), whose nimble electric fretwork effortlessly melded with alternately stinging and fluid leads from Green. Kirwan's arrival came as the band prepared Then Play On (1969). The LP became one of their earliest musical benchmarks and was also the last with Green, who would depart Fleetwood Mac less than six months after these concerts were captured -- perhaps adding to their historical significance. Of equal importance are the incredible combination and fusion of what is by all accounts an aggregate rooted in British blues. However, almost as if by sonic osmosis, Green's playing has developed a psychedelic timbre that easily rivals his contemporaries John Cipollina (guitar/vocals) and Jorma Kaukonen (guitar/vocals). There are half a dozen previously unissued cuts restored on this disc, commencing with a dank and soulful "Jumping at Shadows," giving a comparatively edgier spin than the erstwhile available version on Vol. 1. Green's aggressive rocker "Sandy Mary" builds and ebbs with the same hard-hitting presence that he brought to sides such as "Green Manalishi." Kirwan's "Coming Your Way" is well jammed in the lyric-less rendering that evolves into a brief, up-tempo percussive solo onslaught from Fleetwood before fading out. A similar anomaly faces the closing "On We Jam," which enthusiasts may find woefully incomplete, as the quintet is thrashing about at its most ferocious. One final caveat, the lengthy cover of B.B. King's "If You Let Me Love You," suffers from Green's nearly inaudible vocals.
