Description:
The December 5, 1977 concert at Nippon Budokan was recorded at the hottest timing with "Rumours" still at No.1 on Billboard! Treasure Ark, a series that selects high-quality live recordings! The concert at the Budokan on December 5, 1977 is recorded! The recording was released only one month after its release. The tour started on December 1, 1977 in Nagoya, Japan, and the highlight of the tour was the Nippon Budokan on December 5, 1977. The band started the tour immediately after the release of the album in February 1977, and after touring in North America, Europe, and Oceania for two thirds of the tour, they came to Japan and performed well. The only regret is that Stevie Nicks is said to have caught a cold during his visit to Japan and was not in great shape.Nevertheless, it was not something to be concerned about in the band's ensemble. The band was also particular about the sound on this day, bringing in the same equipment as on the U.S. tour and hanging speakers from the ceiling of the Budokan, so the concert was reputed to sound very good for the Budokan of the time. Except for "Oh Well" from the Blues era, all the songs performed that day were from the albums "Fleetwood Mac" and "Rumors" after Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks joined the band. It is said that Fleetwood Mac's excitement in Japan was not as great as its popularity around the world, but it was quite impressive and the audience response was enthusiastic. This is a very good record of his visit to Japan during this period.
