Fleetwood Mac

Fleetwood Mac delivered a memorable performance of "Don't Stop" at the 1982 US Festival, a pivotal moment during a transformative phase in their career. This live recording came just a year after the release of their album *Mirage* in 1982, which debuted amidst a resurgence of popularity for the band following their earlier iconic works like *Rumours* and *Tusk*. Interestingly, *Mirage* marked a significant return to their more melodic roots after a period of experimental sound. During this time, the band was navigating internal dynamics, as members were adjusting to changing roles and relationships. The performance at the US Festival captured not just their enduring musical chemistry but also the excitement of the audience, reflecting the band's continued influence in rock music. With “Don’t Stop” as a staple of their set, the song, later associated with the Clinton presidential campaign, became an anthem of hope and resilience—a fitting backdrop to the fervor of the live festival experience.
