Fleetwood Mac unearthed a previously unheard concert and studio track for a new box set series chronicling most of the band's early years. The three new packages are out Sept. 4.

The eight-CD Fleetwood Mac 1969-1974 features seven studio albums predating the Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham era: 1969's Then Play On, 1970's Kiln House, 1971's Future Games, 1972's Bare Trees, 1973's Penguin and Mystery to Me and 1974's Heroes Are Hard to Find. (The group's first two LPs, 1968's Fleetwood Mac and Mr. Wonderful, are not included.)

The unreleased audio, originally simulcast on San Francisco radio station KSAN-FM, documents the band's Dec. 15, 1974, show at the Record Plant in Sausalito, Calif. The concert, promoting Heroes Are Hard to Find, featured drummer Mick Fleetwood, bassist John McVie, singer-keyboardist Christine McVie and singer-guitarist Bob Welch.

You can see the track listing below.

The four-LP set Fleetwood Mac 1973-1974 features Fleetwood Mac's three studio albums from those years, along with the 1974 gig and a 7" single of "For Your Love" (Mono Promo Edit) and the previously unreleased track "Good Things (Come to Those Who Wait)," which Welch later reworked for his 1979 solo LP, Three Hearts.

The final release is a limited, colored vinyl edition of Fleetwood Mac 1973-1974, available exclusively through the Rhino Records site.

Less than two weeks after the release, Fleetwood Mac will issue a previously announced, expanded reissue of Then Play On. The "Celebration Edition," out on CD and vinyl, will feature the original U.K. track listing, along with four bonus songs.
