    My friend Bruce Watson is in the band Foreigner and is constantly touring. Bruce is a great guitar player! I asked him if there was a song he would like to teach and he didn't hesitate.. "Go Your Own Way" by Fleetwood Mac. He did great on the rhythm but also, I was super impressed with his feel and sound for the solo.

      Geez how many times I've heard Lindsey is underrated. Why are there so many people posting videos and guitar riffs of his if he's underrated? He was right for Fleetwood Mac and nothing other than that in my opinion. I watched Tusk concert broadcast on PBS last night and was a snoozer Stevie fest.

    Bruce and I were in a band together in the late 70's named Aragorn. "Go Your Own Way" was one of the very few non-original songs we played. Most of our songs were written by Bruce and some were really good. His and my guitar playing styles were so different that they complemented each other. Our band had a lot of potential but alas, out of nowhere, one day Aragorn ceased to exist. I never did get answer why but that was the funnest time of my life and losing the band almost made me quit playing guitar altogether.

    Tim is a passionate guy on guitar and about guitar. However, I have never seen him have so much fun and be so excited with a song before. If I had only one song to do at a jam ..... this would be it.

  • @ericrudd

    I had the pleasure of engineering the Out of the Cradle album alongside Kevin Killen. What a crazy time.
    I found a recording with isolated tracks of this song. I play the acoustic part in our local cover band....and the sound of that part has been tugging at my ears for months now. For anyone that is interested, I discovered tonight that the part is not played D-shape capo'd at the third fret as Tim does here. (sorry Tim, not meaning to correct you!!!). I firmly believe it is capo'd at the 5th fret and played in C-shape. Simply lift your third finger (E) for the alternating first chord......second chord is Gsus4. Finally the third chord is an F with the third of the chord (A) lifting off for the open G note. So to my ear….the C note on the second string carries throughout. Boom.....instant sound on the record. The chorus is simply Am F G. (Need to double check…it may be Gsus4)
    After watching Lindsey record his parts....he rarely tuned his guitar to A440. Most often he would double/triple/quadruple tracks by having me varispeed the multitrack to the pitch of his guitar as best I could. It's that Buckingham "chorus" sound that everyone seems to chase. It's done on GYOW as well. The guitar is also EQ'd with not much bottom end.

    I have always loved Lindsey's guitar sound on this song (ALL of his guitar sounds on this song!) and my absolute favorite thing which they barely mention is the feedback swells on the first guitar solo. I love how it ramps up and feels like it's almost is going to get away from him and then he goes onto the next phrase. I think it makes it powerful and emotional.

  • @livingabovethe12th

    This is awesome! One of my all-time favorite songs to play along with! People don't realize how "windmill-y" and thrashy and kind of heavy this song really is ... it's just super fun to wail over this in D Minor busting out all your best 70s rock licks and accompanying 70s rock faces! Great bass line too. Fyi, for those who want to nerd out, he got his drive the same way Ritchie Blackmore did...using the preamp of a 2 track reel to reel (sony or awia) to overload the preamp of a marshall or hiwatt. During this time most his "heavy" chords and solos were played on a 70s cream colored "white" Les Paul Custom. In The Sound City movie / docs there is some classic photos of him tearing it up on that TV white Les Paul Custom at Sound City.

      @@musicmann1967 Ray Lindsey, Brett Tuggle and Neale Haywood were the three guitarists who played rhythm guitar on live Fleetwood Mac tours between 1977-2018, mostly in the shadows. The main parts they played were the acoustic six string rhythm on “Go Your Own Way”, again capoed at the 8th fret. Most concert videos do not show them, but they are there. When Lindsey performed the song as a solo artist in later years, he would use a Boss Loop Station and pre-record that part for playback on the song while he played his Rick Turner Model 1.
