At around the 3 minute mark, this guy starts playing the various isolated tracks from the song - drums, then bass, then guitar, then vocals, etc.
I thought it was interesting to hear each different component on its own, then how they all come together.
Music Geek Reacts to Fleetwood Mac's "Dreams" Isolated Raw Tracks
Very Cool! Thanks!
That album is a master class in recording techniques.
Amazing! I can think of dozens of songs and artists from that era that I would love to hear broken down like this!
The guitar...omg
Extraordinarily cool… Thank you for posting that. Having spent time in music studios, doing demo recordings, I can very much appreciate the effort that goes into recording a song.
When you hear a song broken down into its instrumental components, you start to appreciate and get a glimpse of the work that went into it.
If you like that then check out the documentary with The Chain tracks
That credit would go to studio engineer Ken Callait who is also the father of singer-songwriter Colby Callait.
Brilliant! Thanks for posting........
Bump for later.

During the 90’s I played in a tavern band that featured an awesome girl singer. She wanted to do this song and I set about disassembling the song in order to recreate the Buckingham sound (which wasn’t a part of my repertoire at the time).
Man, I wish that I had had access to the raw tracks to isolate the guitar tracks back then! I think we put together a worthy tribute.
Over the years, it became my favorite song on the album while "Don't Stop" became my least favorite.
Interesting how things like that happen. I have many other examples how songs went from not liked to favorites over the years. And vice versa.
It was mostly the guys in the booth cutting out stuff though with Mick, they didn’t need to cut much. He was always more of a percussionist than a rock drummer.

Live, small venue.
There’s a guy that does this with Beatle tunes. Google Helter Skelter bass. John played an amazing bass on that song.
Interesting! I didn't know that.
