"Tell Me All The Things You Do" is my favorite Fleetwood Mac song.  I discovered it when Off Broadway was doing it in their last incarnation, when they were performing as Black and Blond.

I am a huge fan of these guys. Mel and Don have to be one of THE all time great rock rhythm sections.
Mind you I hope our Mark doesn't notice Dons clobber.... ;D Wonder how he feels about wardrobe when he sees these films today?

I wonder how I would look in Mels lemon suit?  :o

How about some post-Hagar Montrose?  My band covered this song, but I think "Dancing Feet" is one of the band's best songs.

We used to do  the Montrose version of  Good Rockin Tonight  back in the 80's.

Here is an old desk recording, distorted, no balances or EQ  just raw from the old tape.

This should fit in nicely...a band fronted by a bass player, beware spandex warning, but the musicianship makes it forgivible..........




Thanks Dave for gettig rid of the duplicate link, I tried but couldn't remove it.

There was nothing in the world
That I ever wanted more
Than to feel you deep in my heart
There was nothing in the world
That I ever wanted more
Than to never feel the breaking apart
All my pictures of you

I was going through my old cd's this weekend and I popped in the debut album from Fountains of Wayne. I'd forgotten how much I like this album.
