southern comfort - take one fear at a time
hard to find info about this group, other than they were active from 1970-1972... can't find anything physical, but their album is on spotify!

fleetwood mac - dreams (take 2) (1976)
this is a more stripped-down version of "dreams," as nicks and buckingham worked together to flesh out what would eventually become the wall of sound that this song eventually became. the final cut is perfect in what it evokes: "crystal visions" and dreams; life advice from your inner voices; baptismals into new chapters of your life. this take is rather nice on its own terms, though: the beautiful simplicity of stevie nicks' voice dancing across the thin layer of bass and guitar underneath. it's clear that she put a lot of thought into her phrasing and voice here. you can feel the impact of every line...
