Everything that made Fleetwood Mac as great as they were in the 1970s was on display in this concert and displayed in that video. You could see the tension, sense the love and feel the hate. It was equally fascinating the way Buckingham responded. The accompanying video was chilling in the way Stevie Nicks stared down Lindsey Buckingham throughout the night. Three big singles were released from the album including the unreleased track “Silver Springs.” It was nominated for multiple Grammy Awards. It became the fifth biggest selling live album of all time. The album shot straight to number one on the Billboard album charts.

Wonderful, strangely, was not issued in the U.S., although about half the songs turned up on its stateside counterpart, English Rose, which was fleshed out with some standout late-'60s British singles and a few new tracks penned by Danny Kirwan (who joined the band after Mr. Peter Green, the band's major talent at this point, did not deliver original material on the level of the classic singles he would pen for the band in 1969, or even on the level of first-album standouts like "I Loved Another Woman." The best of the lot, perhaps, is "Love That Burns," with its mournful minor-key melody and sluggish, responsive horn lines. In particular, the limits of Jeremy Spencer's potential for creative contribution were badly exposed, as the tracks that featured his songwriting and/or vocals were basic Elmore James covers or derivations. So much of the record was routine blues that it could even be said that it represented something of a regression from the first LP, despite the enlistment of a horn section and pianist Christine Perfect (the future Christine McVie) to help on the sessions. Although it made number ten in the U.K., Fleetwood Mac's second album was a disappointment following their promising debut.
