The other 2019 release, "Before the Beginning," is a travesty, and I don't use that word lightly.

It took me nearly a year before I could find a copy. Worse, it was only a Record Store Day limited release, and it's very hard to find. That one also is good, except it is only a single album that merely deals with some of their performances from 1968. The album "BBC Sessions 1968" was released. Then, in 2019, there were two new releases that promised more. (Plus, there are even more performances available only via low quality bootleg recordings, or haven't been made public at all.) Some other performances trickled out over the years, a couple of this archival album, a few more on another one, etc. That was very good, except for the fact that it was a mere double album, and I've compiled six albums. In 1995, a double album called "Live at the BBC" was released. The official release of Fleetwood Mac's BBC performances over the years has been very frustrating.

If you're a fan of their Peter Green-led blues era, you really should listen to these. I've compiled six albums of their BBC material. Fleetwood Mac performed for the BBC many times from 1967 to 1971.
