About this record
The runout matrix 2WB-1-3500 RE-1 S3 F11 stamped in the dead wax identifies this as a Monarch Record Mfg. Co. pressing of Fleetwood Mac Live, the 1980 Warner Bros. Records double album (catalogue 2WB 3500) recorded during the Tusk Tour of 1979/1980.
Demand sits at 306 want against 3461 in collectors' hands, making this a stable rather than scarce title. The gatefold includes inner sleeves documenting tour dates and recording sessions mixed at George Massenburgh Studio and mastered by Ken Perry at Capitol Records West Coast and Bob Ludwig at Master Disc East Coast.
What drives its value
This 1980 US pressing commands modest collector interest: 306 want it against 3461 who already own a copy, a ratio that reflects its broad availability despite the live-concert appeal. The 18-track double album was digitally mixed and mastered by Soundstream Inc., a technical detail that distinguishes it from bootlegs or later reissues.
Monarch Record Mfg. Co. pressed all four sides, with each disc bearing distinct matrix codes (2WB-1-3500 through 2WB-4-3500) and Capitol mastering stamps (△533, △534 variants).
The absence of a barcode and the gatefold format with tour documentation add collectible weight. Community rating of 4.12 across 90 votes suggests consistent condition and pressing quality.
Original Warner Bros. pressings from 1980 hold value primarily as functional copies of a major live document rather than as rare variants; reissues and later pressings have not yet fragmented the market into steep premium tiers.
How to appraise this pressing
Confirm this pressing by the catalogue number 2WB 3500 on the spine and front cover, printed "Fleetwood Mac Live 80 Warner Bros. Records INC. Printed In U.S.A." Check the dead wax on each of the four sides: side 1 reads 2WB-1-3500 RE-1 S3 F11 + SLM MASTERED BY CAPITOL + △533 B-15426 △24932; side 2 reads 2WB-2-3500 S2 F2 + SLM MASTERED BY CAPITOL + △533-X B-15427; side 3 reads 2WB-3-3500 S2 F2 SLM + MASTERED BY CAPITOL + △534 B-15428 △24933; side 4 reads 2WB-4-3500 S2 F2 + SLM MASTERED BY CAPITOL + △534-X B-15429 △24933.
The Monarch Record Mfg. Co. pressing plant attribution appears in the runout.
The gatefold cover and inner sleeves with tour dates and recording information are original to this 1980 release. No barcode is present on early pressings.
Grade by vinyl surface cleanliness, groove wear, and cover laminate condition; the gatefold hinge and inner sleeves are prone to splitting and foxing.

Frequently asked
How do I know this is the original 1980 Monarch pressing and not a later reissue?
Read the runout matrix on each side. The 1980 Monarch pressing shows 2WB-1-3500 RE-1 S3 F11 on side 1, 2WB-2-3500 S2 F2 on side 2, 2WB-3-3500 S2 F2 on side 3, and 2WB-4-3500 S2 F2 on side 4, all with SLM mastering credits and Capitol Records West Coast or Master Disc East Coast cutting. Later reissues will have different matrix codes or omit the RE-1 designation on side 1. The absence of a barcode is also consistent with 1980 US pressings.
What does the △533 and △534 stamp in the runout mean?
These are Capitol Records West Coast cutting identifiers. Side 1 and 2 carry △533 (or △533-X on side 2), while sides 3 and 4 carry △534 (or △534-X on side 4). They indicate which cutting lathe and engineer handled the disc mastering. The B-numbers (B-15426, B-15427, B-15428, B-15429) are sequential lacquer master identifiers. Together they confirm the 1980 Capitol mastering session and Monarch pressing plant workflow.
Why does the community have 3461 copies but only 306 want it?
The 11-to-1 ratio of have to want reflects that Fleetwood Mac Live is a well-known live album from a major act, pressed in substantial quantities in 1980 and widely available in the used market. It is not rare or sought after as a variant; most collectors who want it already own a copy or can find one easily. The 4.12 community rating across 90 votes suggests consistent quality and playability, reducing urgency to hunt for a specific pressing.
What is the significance of the Monarch Record Mfg. Co. pressing plant?
Monarch was a major US vinyl manufacturer in 1980, contracted by Warner Bros. to press this double album. The four sides (2WB-1-3500 through 2WB-4-3500) all bear Monarch's production marks in the runout. Monarch pressings from this era are generally consistent in quality and do not command premiums over other 1980 US pressings; they are simply the standard commercial pressing for this title.
Does the gatefold and inner sleeves affect the value of this record?
Yes. The gatefold cover and inner sleeves with tour dates and recording information are original to the 1980 release and expected on a complete copy. Damage to the gatefold hinge, foxing on the inner sleeves, or missing sleeves reduces value. A copy with intact gatefold and clean inner sleeves will grade higher and command more than a jacket-only or damaged copy. The 1979/1980 Tusk Tour documentation on the inner sleeves is a collectible feature specific to this pressing.
