Patrick Gibin - Limited Edition Wax Poetics Mix

It felt important right now to come back to the words and teachings of Howard Zinn, when the U.S. government is causing and propagating so much fear and racism and oppression and just plain meanness, and things seem tilted toward hopelessness. This is the third in my series of mix-tributes to Zinn, and the vocal samples here come from a few great interviews and programs you can find on Youtube, including a great interview Laura Flanders did with the amazing Staceyann Chin and Imani Perry a couple years ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v4R3-OyS2ho 

The beats are from a variety of producers, all vinyl selections from the crates. Finally, in these times, I always turn back to this essay from Zinn: https://www.howardzinn.org/collection/a-marvelous-victory/ "What we choose to emphasize in this complex history will determine our lives. If we see only the worst, it destroys our capacity to do something. If we remember those times and places—and there are so many—where people have behaved magnificently, it energizes us to act, and raises at least the possibility of sending this spinning top of a world in a different direction. And if we do act, in however small a way, we don’t have to wait for some grand utopian future. The future is an infinite succession of presents, and to live now as we think human beings should live, in defiance of all that is bad around us, is itself a marvelous victory."

Pullin from the Stacks - Nothing New

Last week was the 50th anniversary of Fleetwood Mac's self-titled 10th album; released July 11th 1975. It was the first to feature the US duo Lindsey Buckingham (guitars / vocals) & Stevie Nicks (vocals), who joined two of the original members, drummer Mick Fleetwood and bassist John McVie, along with his then-partner, the late Christine McVie (keys / vocals). Band founder Peter Green had long since left, but the rhythm section he named the band after remained.

I originally did a Fleetwood Mac tribute mix back in 2013, for the 35th anniversary of 'Rumours'. It's one of my most-streamed mixes from over the years. 

Late last year I remade the mix entirely from scratch, as a pilot for BBC Radio 2.
The commissioning editor told me he liked it, but it was never aired. 

I'm not a fan of 'hard-drive classics', so this felt a good time to upload it.

This version is slightly different to my mix from 12 years ago.
It's a little more succinct (57 mins precisely), uses a few different tracks & samples, and effectively it's all been 'remastered'.

It covers all eras of the band and it's various incarnations, telling the tales of their well-documented personal battles, and their 20+ album legacy that made them one of the most successful bands of all time.
