A good song from early Fleetwood Mac.

And a quote regarding influencing of metal:

While the Mac is revered for its early material such as “Black Magic Woman” and “Rattlesnake Shake” and the glorious instrumental “Albatross,” Spencer points out that the music had already begun to move in strange directions with Peter Green’s acid-soaked 1970 U.K. hit “The Green Manalishi (With the Two-Prong Crown).”

“I wasn’t keen on the direction we went into with ‘Green Manalishi’ and all that, which led to the birth of heavy metal,” Spencer says. “It’s such a shame that metal sprouted from that stuff. Death-metal bands give credit to Fleetwood Mac today.”

I had always wanted to see what these guys sounded like. Then I remembered that YouTube existed. I wasn’t disappointed by them on my first listen, by any means.

I’m not sure why I like this video so much. It’s just really good.

I’m not really trying to rip on these guys, cause I like all kinds of different metal and these guys are pretty good. But man, I bet they’re into Dungeons & Dragons.

Yeah. I like this vid. Ever since I heard this song for the first time I’ve been hooked on the Leviathan album. I’m still trying to figure out if Neil Fallon actually dressed up in the Clown Suit for this part. I’d say it’s 50/50, I can’t tell if it’s him or not.
