Live in Boston is a live album by British blues-rock band Fleetwood Mac. It was recorded over three nights at the Boston Tea Party venue in Boston, between February 5 and February 7, 1970. The recordings were made for a proposed live album, which was to have been released during 1970 but the project was shelved and the tapes remained unreleased until Shanghai Records issued seven songs from the performances as Live in Boston in February 1985. In 1998, Snapper Music released a three-volume CD set, titled Live in Boston: Remastered (later reissued as Live at the Boston Tea Party), which collected virtually all of the available tracks from the Boston Tea Party concerts. These three volumes have subsequently been available individually or as a box set.

Previously issued as three different volumes of live recordings put to tape at the Boston Tea Party nightclub over a string of dates in early 1970, Boston offers a definitive and crisply mastered version of the entire series, capturing the Peter Green-fronted, pre-Buckingham Nicks version of Fleetwood Mac at one of their smokiest, bluesiest high points…
Artistically and commercially, the Stevie Nicks/Lindsey Buckingham/Mick Fleetwood/Christine and John McVie edition of Fleetwood Mac had been on a roll for over a decade when Tango in the Night was released in early 1987. This would, unfortunately, be Buckingham's last album with the pop/rock supergroup – and he definitely ended his association with the band on a creative high note. Serving as the album's main producer, Buckingham gives an edgy quality to everything from the haunting "Isn't It Midnight" to the poetic "Seven Wonders" to the dreamy "Everywhere." Though Buckingham doesn't over-produce, his thoughtful use of synthesizers is a major asset. Without question, "Family Man" and "Caroline" are among the best songs ever written by Buckingham, who consistently brings out the best in his colleagues on this superb album.
This box set is the first overview of a life, a dream that is already an oeuvre: the dream of a singer who wanted only to be a voice in the service of the Lord, and who in spite of herself has become a star in the eyes of men and women.
Over the course of the three albums included here, the listener will follow the ascension of an artist in the years when she asserted herself as one of the great interpreters of traditional spirituals and gospel songs. This is a repertoire whose masterpieces date mostly from the 19th century, that period when Liz Mc Comb’s ancestors freed themselves from the chains of slavery through hope and through faith. In the last few years, without distancing herself from her roots, Liz Mc Comb has proven herself to be an enlightened composer, and her fourth album, "Time Is Now", is an indispensible addition to this trilogy.
