I think this is still one of the most amazing solo performances I've ever seen.
ABSOLUTELY!!
I agree. You should watch John Mayer Neon live in l.a. It’ll blow your mind
Juan Sebastian Castro Molestina theyre actually my two favourites!! Love it
Agreed. He is very very precious this cat. The new album sounds amazing

People say that he is the most underrated guitarist, but they tend to forget that he is also an underrated producer, singer, arranger and overall musician. no one can pull that song off live other than him, this is so intense, keeping that fast rhythm, doing those extreme fingerstyle patterns and still having the breath control to truly sing, and it’s all on him, no one to lean on musically, just unbelievable.
Glen Campbell could've played the guitar on this song as well as Lindsey, but he's the only one that in 55 years of rockin' that I could think of. He, the guitarist in The Wrecking Crew who made so many star's songs truly great, was the only one with the finger speed and touch to be able to match Lyndsey. Still, Lyndsey's the one and only to originate this song, play a mean guitar and sing the lyrics all in one live take. The man's level of musicianship is that which anyone taking up guitar should hold as a level to aim for.
Well said, friend
Maybe not singer. The rest true for sure.
@@randomdude6136 try to sing along with Fleetwood Mac song, you will realize that singing along with Lindsey is not that easy
@@ranmitrani3948 the act of singing while playing wasn't what i was talking about...it's impressive. His voice isn't that good. Off pitch a lot.
One man, one guitar, a million chills.
amen.
What's the sacrifice here?? Love, family, personal life. All to reach millions...is it worth it?! FUCK yeah
His finger work is fanominal in this song.
One man, one guitar sounding like 2 guitars
One man, million talents
Imagine playing what sounds like three different parts at the same time on guitar and singing too? In front of an audience? Live? Without any slip-ups? This is the reason he is in a different league from others.
Hes def top 5 for me, no question
I know how to play this song but not nearly this well obviously and I can't sing while doing it. But let me tell you that the part at 1:38 is the hardest even though the picking pattern is fairly easy. you simply can't play it in tempo it's so fast even after months of practicing. Practicing this song gave me months of shoulder tendonitis because it's simply impossible to relax your arm while playing like a fucking machinegun.
He's excellent
I was just thinking the same thing. You would guess at least 2 guitarists if not 3 it’s just incredible
@@tamasvarga9862 it was easy enough for me....but I have a classical guitar background and also play bluegrass banjo
Who’s still listening in 2024?! This is an amazing live performance by Lindsey!! He’s an exceptional singer, guitarist and extremely talented!! This is one of the best live performances of all time!!! 🎶💯💙
I am. This is wonderful
Love this.
I definitely am. I got my 1st gtr lesson from Lindsay when I was 9 years old. He & Stevie lived next door and used to watch me while my folks went out and partied. This was right before they joined Fleetwood Mac. I’m 57 now, been a professional musician most of my life and still regard Lindsay as one of the most talented, passionate and ingenious musician/songwriter/producers ever. Although I’ve never met him as an adult, he remains a huge inspiration to me. (And btw, Stevie was a total sweetheart to me as well)
@@jonnyroxx7172 how wonderful 😊
Lindsey has inspired me to learn guitar he's an incredible talent
My man played the lead guitar as well as the whole freaking rhythm section as well. He's a beast!
And sings😮
Shame he forgot to bring his drum kit.
Mick Fleetwood couldn't have made a better decision than to sign Buckingham & Nicks to their group…incredible musicians! Lindsey is far underrated - he deserves much more acknowledgement. He is a genius!
I LOVE WHEN ITS JUST MICK AND LINDSEY ON STAGE!!! Those two have an energy...that just connects! 🎶🎶🌌🌌😍😍
And a bigger mistake getting rid of him on their “last” tour.
Don't get the big deal about Mick Fleetwood,the band should got rid of him even though he is a co called founder
Under rated yes!
He gets a lot of recognition... I don’t understand why everyone says this lmao. He’s one of the most successful and highly rated musicians of all time. There are millions with incredible talent that get 0 recognision.
This man is unusually gifted. What a beast
You right here, *described him with PERFECTION!!* Finally, someone has the words I could not come up with. Thank you 😊
Oh! May I quote you? With credit of course.
I've been playing guitar for 23 years and can play songs from some of the most legendary virtuosos and I just cannot fathom how someone can play this and sing at the same time. Hes an absolute legend
Im 52. Ive been playing daily for the best part of 40 years. Im pretty sure with a little time and the sheets I can play practically anything within reason. I wouldnt know where to start with this. Lindsay is in a league I cant even see from where I am sitting.
No and he's an amazing singer as well.
THIS. I made it a new year resolution to learn this song this year, it’s May and I’ve got about 30% down, it’s a ridiculously genius piece of music. And as for singing at the same time? Cannot get my head around it. Man’s a genius.
75% of Fleetwood Mac's talent right here.
At least.
Understand your point
Not sure I quite agree
But him and mr Knopfler are the most underrated guitarists and he’s a great songwriter too.
But Fleetwood Mac were alchemy so even Fleetwoods understated drumming and McVies bass provide the foundations for Buckingham (mainly) but also Nicks and Chrissy to create beauty.
But when I talked guitars to my kids this performance is the peak
this song alone proves that
I agree with some iteration of Mac. But “Fleetwood Mac” and “Rumors” were more collaborative. Christine McVie did a few song. The original white album he had 2 1/2 credits, Rumors was 3 1/5, Tusk was 8 of 15 song (and I agree that album was more of a forced vision of Buckingham). But the sound of Old Mac was more bass and heavy percussion and the latest Buckingham/McVie collaboration which features Mick Fleetwood and John McVie sounds more like a pure Buckingham album. Tiny rhythm section. His vision took over the band and had “somebody” not gotten upset he’d still be there. There are albums where “somebody” barely showed up to work!
@@injuredtabletennisplayer1474 Lindsey's share of the work is not a question of how many songs he wrote himself. No, the thing is that he was largely responsible for the band's sound due to his work as their musical leader, arranger and producer. And he is the one who came up with all of the famous guitar riffs and also many of the keyboard riffs.
Mick and John provided drums and bass, and Christine played piano, organ and synthesizer. Stevie didn't play any instruments and was absent most of the time (not only during the making of Tango in the Night, but also during the making of the band's other albums), except when she has to sing lead or provide backing vocals. She and John weren't as much in the studio as Lindsey, Christine and Mick. You can read more about it here: stevie-nicks.info/1982/09/01/fleetwood-mac-wheres-stevie/
Making the ladies scream for 30 years. Well played, Lindsey. Well played.
So much better than the album version. Chilling...sensational. A real artist of our time
I can't get enough of this version gives me chills
And he even feminized his voice without a sampler!
And he even feminized his voice without a sampler!
As a life-long metal head, that's seen and heard so many extremely talented guitarists over the last five decades, there's no way Lindsey Buckingham doesn't belong in the top 10 of all time discussion! The definition of talent exists in people like this!
He's special.
Last time I saw a Top 100 list of rock guitarists, they had Lindsey at #100. Music critics are outstanding clueless
@@ja3482 Yep, I actually once saw Kurt Cobain in the top 10 of an all time greatest guitarist list. SMH
@@tipigi3570 yep 😂 the one that always pisses me off the most is when they put Bonnie Raitt in like top 30 or something. "But definitely not because she's a woman" right?
Well we now know what he was doing at home practicing while she worked so dam hard being a waitress with in the first nine months with Fleetwood Mac they together made a million bucks to me she got her reward in the time to have a baby . And that's a whole nother story
Lynsey slides into everyones top 10 guitarists after seeing this. Just incredible
Lindsey but yes totally agree...
Agreed
That’s how he carries Fleetwood Mac. Just one guitarist and a bass. All you need is buckingham. He’s incredible!!
@@victormoon2349 I slighty disagree . He definitely sparked the band ina new direction but the band was blend of talent . They needed each other. Never break the chain!
I’ve had to apologise to my guitar after seeing that guitar playing, absolutely brilliant.
😂
Lindsey Buckingham: Reminding guitarist that they have two hands for nearly half a century.
I've literally watched every live version of this song I could find. Lindsey's guitar on this song is a stand out!!!!
me 2
me too haha
As a guitar player i must say. Sometimes you watch an amazing player doing great stuff, and maybe you are don't have the skills to pull the same off, however you understand how is done, with this song... damn, is so much going on at the same time and watching closely Lindsey's playing i can barely get a grasp of what is going on and on top of that he's also singing. Truly outstanding.
Not much really
Absolutely, a guitarist technician's dream...And yes, to have that guttural voice on command is a huge bonus. He def is FLEETWOOD MACK!
@@russelllagow9169 So I guess you can play it exactly in the same speed and accuracy while singing?
@@dietermieter2866 He probably couldn't play a spoon and swallow at the same time.
The degree of difficulty, particularly with the thumb on the bass line defies logic.
Never really seen anything like it
Only professional guitarists can grasp how insanely difficult is the guitar playing in this song...and to top it all up, he sings as well!! Out of this world!!!
Jaw dropping, subtle changing in phrasing all the while keeping the bass clean...and yeah, add in he's singing too
Yeo, to sing whilst performing that Travis picking style at breakneck speed is just incredible.
Sure thing,
One has to have put your own fingers into his playing style, to be able to understand how
crazy difficult it is ! 😊
Honestly this has to be up there as the most impressive performance of all time. The guitar playing and singing at the same time is unbelievable.
This is my favorite solo-performance ever. Any version.
Brilliant.
man i come back to this once in a while, the music video to this song with fleetwood mac is one of the most trippy and ahead of its time. people should check it out
neon john mayer live in LA trumps this by a loooonggg mile
I've watched this amazing performance several times but I still find it hard to believe how he was able to play the whole song flawlessly. It's like watching the impossible.
I can’t watch it enough. You have to see it a few times to really appreciate what sound he creates. There is no Fleetwood Mac without LB
He deserves to be mentioned in the same pantheon of greats such as Hendrix, Beck, Santana, McLaughlin and Van Halen.
SRV too?
@@Joe_Comino Of course!
Add Knopfler, too! Do we add Fripp to that list?
@@cherrypepsi2815we don't. :)
Man is a living legend. The backbone of Fleetwood Mac. A true musician, singer, and songwriter.
Thanks for your 4+ decades of music 👏🏼❤
Just showed this to my 8 year old who's learning ukelele. Her reply- " he'd had to have done a bunch of practicing to do that."
64 and can tear up a guitar better than any one of the best.
You have such a profound impact on my career that even the biggest thank you text will fall short to express my gratitude. Thanks for your support. ♥ ♥ ♥
Imagine: he wrote this, it didn’t exist before he did. That always amazes me how much we take this and similar talent for granted
This is a better version than the original
I have been playing guitar for over 20 years and can appreciate what is going on here! It’s literally mental! Then add the fact he is singing over it all ❤
Fleetwood Mac was filled with legendary geniuses. The world didn't fully realize the greatness of Christine McVie until she was gone. The same will happen with this exceptional gentleman.
Good Lord, that guitar playing is simply off the charts. Cracking performance all round.
I'm not a big Fleetwood Mac fan, but this is REALLY impressive. His arpeggio picking is mechanically, metrically flawless. Live. While he's singing. Again, WOW!
What a performance wow just wow
Lindsey is in my top 10 of all time influential guitarists.
This is master work. I've been playing for half of my life and there is no way, at this moment, I could pull off that level of accuracy, tone, accents, with a guitar hanging halfway down my body. I couldn't even do this playing in the classical position that I do. This is some bullshit.
It sure is, mate. He makes it look effortless and I know he wrote it, but damn.
A real "save some pussy for the rest of us" moment.
And he’s also doing awesome singing at the same time… 🤯
😂😆💀💀
One of the best accoustic guitar players of all time.....
He will forever live in the Olympus that he himself created.
I worked at their concert in 2003 in Dublin and as I was taking the locks of the fire exits he was doing a sound check on the stage ,he then sang this exact version with just me and him in the arena I was no more than 20 feet away from him ,I was stuck to the floor ,played with the same passion even in the sound check
Wow! you lucky git!!
Agreed what a neat story and a wonderful gift.
Playing that is hard enough on its own. Singing along with it. Wow. His hand control is phenomenal. Great songwriter too !
It's so good its ridiculous
If my close my eyes I can visualize a guy playing bass, 2 guys on guitars and one guy on vocals
His arpeggio style is incredible 🙌
The fact that he's playing rhythm and lead at the same time is incredible.
LB is 100% Fabulous in everything, from head to toe, even now in 2024!
Lead AND rythmm guitar! Amazing talent.
...while singing.
And he wrote it
Many people play acoustic like that (see Davy Graham's "The Guitar Player") but few have this level of control and skill.
And that's before we mention singing while playing this relatively difficult piece.
Hands down the best guitar performance to date.
He is so underrated it's ridiculous!
Evan 👏
His net worth is 100 million... No, he's not underrated.
😍❤️
@@KevinSolano music critics constantly underrate Lindsey as an instrumentalist
This song alone would be worth the price of a concert ticket. The rest of the concert would be a bonus. Literally unbelievable performance, and the song is so good.
I've been listening to the song steady, trying to determine if he uses fingerpics, or if more guitars were involved. Then I saw the video! Amazing!
This is nuts. If man can play this, world peace must be peanuts to accomplish.
A lot has been said about this guy. But, it all comes down to he is one kick-ass guitar player.
His guitar playing at 1:37 is heavenly 💖🎶
Putting yourself on the line with such complex guitar work really is the mark of a genius ❤❤❤❤
Starts playing - really impressed
Starts singing while playing- mind blown,
Buckingham is the goat
Playing this is hard enough… playing this and singing at the same time is GODLY!!
Chills each time I see and hear this rendition. Guitar maestro. Passion in his voice and in his guitar playing. Shredder!
That’s insane guitar playing
Lindsey is supernatural.
Great version, what a talented guy! Mean guitarist.
fossie32 👌
Lindley Buckingham is effortlessly heroic, thanks to my parents for making Fleetwood mac part of my musical childhood upbringing, ta much❤big big loves
Same here 😍
The guitar playing is excellent. The howling at the end is perfect.
I've seen him do this LIVE in ~1994.. spraying sweat off his forehead into the first 3-4 rows of the audience in the song's final moments..
The raw ENERGY of this man is a sight to behold !
Big Big Love~Mesmerizing, chills and as amazing as any live performance can be with Lindsey!!! 💙🎶💙
The pain in his voice just punches you in the heart so much soul
An act of sheer genius. Spellbinding. Thank you Lindsey.
WOW! WOW!! And thrice WOW!!! That is stunning.
Speaking as a guitarist, probably one of my top 3 of all time. Such a unique talent
and the other 2? let me guess, clapton & jimi?
@@joelanderos23 Eric Clapton is kinda overrated. Jimi actually sucked as an instrumentalist. Sorry.
I've noticed eople who actually played guitar know Lindsey is top tier.
@@joelanderos23 Possibly Django Reinheardt and Mark Knopfler. Maybe Tommy E
I Wonder how many of The 99 guitarists ranked better byThe Rolling Stone Who managed to copy this?
If you are right how come those how is studying this doesn´t repeat it?
you simply underestimate the power of practice and enthusiasm. you say anyone studying classical guitar in college could whip this up with a few days of practice. yet realy very very few people do and play it with this kind of enthusiasm. don't underestime anything.
I think Lindsey is an amazing guitarist... however you don’t (or at least shouldn’t) get into the top 100 guitarists through your ability to copy what someone else does. That’s not what it’s about. Lindsey is very very skilled in his own way, has his own unique twists and idiosyncrasies that add to his allure, and is a brilliant songwriter (different skill to being a good instrumentalist but worth mentioning) but there are dozens, probably hundreds if not thousands, of guitarists who do things that Lindsey has never shown us he can do and would, in all fairness to him, almost certainly struggle to do (it’s what specialising in certain genres and styles of music and guitar playing is all about after all - that’s not a criticism).
he is a great guitar play but the top shredders could play this any day of the week. go look at paul gilbert's work. the guy can do just about anything with a guitar.
@@rd400d and yet he's never written a song which feels good to listen to
And that lady’s and gentleman is how it’s done!
The man is a guitar God. There, I said it!
One of the greatest guitar rhythms of all time being rooted in Lindsay's inventiveness & tonal personality.
"oooh.... aahhhh"
Fair to say this is the greatest solo performance of all time?
As good as this is, thats a stretch....no way it's the GOAT
No))
Id agree... Wrote it, played it performed it.
No accompaniment necessary! Just him and his guitar. Powerful! Lindsey is arguably one of the best finger style guitarists ever.
To play those parts on guitar and to sing at the same time, his mind is a machine
Not sure why there's a clip full of guitar picks on Lindsey's mic stand, because he never used a pick.
I fell in love with Fleetwood Mac when I was 12 and I’ve only just realised it is LB I’m actually in love with. What a fkn talent! Omg 😮
this is the best piece of guitarplay i have ever heard!!! brings tears to my eyes!!!!
His playing style sounds like a dream🎸
Lyrics
Guitar intro
[Verse 1]
Looking out for love
In the night so still
Oh, I'll build you a kingdom
In that house on the hill
[Chorus]
Looking out for love
Big, big love
[Verse 2]
You said that you love me
And that you always will
Oh, you beg me to keep ya
In that house on the hill
[Chorus]
Looking out for love
Big, big love
[Guitar solo]
[Bridge]
I wake up
Alone with it all
I wake up
But only to fall
[Chorus]
Looking out for love
Big, big love
Just looking out for love
Big, big love
[Outro]
Ooh, ah × 13
Absolutely Stellar & Brilliant Performance.
one of the very best of all time any genre
I still have no idea how he does all of it at the same time!
This brother didn’t miss a note and sang
A special performance indeed
On his own Top Shelf! THE GOAT
It's like he has 4 hands! Legendary ❤😊🎉
One of my friends got me a ticket to this show, and it was amazing.
It wasn't till the lights had shut off at the end that I realized my jaw was agape through the whole song.
After seeing this live, my brain goes back to that day every time I see this video.
One of the most powerful solo performances I'll probably ever see with my own eyes.
Still gives me goosebumps every time I hear it 😅
Virtuoso
Stunning performance, so does his guitar techniques.
That was hell of an acoustic performance.
I want to play like that!
Ughhh this makes me melt
Any song is tough at 280 bpm. This is insane!
Blessed to see him at the Paradise Rock club in Boston around 1990, he opened with these two. Blew me away! Still one of the best shows I’ve ever seen after 36 years of live music.
Can never get enough of LB ... he's like no other! The Guitar God of Rock!
Wow! Guitar skills off the chart and that ending was fire!
1:20-1:59.. I have no words for the creativity and mastery of his instrument here. Every time I listen, I hear something new.
I've yet to see anyone else pull that off even close to this.
Amazing to watch a musician putting his skills on the edge and with nothing to cover any mistakes🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
I've watched him play this so many times & I still don't understand it. It's incredible. He's amazing.
Best guitarist. Sounds like multiple guitars at times.
For multiple guitars at a time genius sound try Alex Degrassi Turning Turning Back or Southern Exposure
...so amazing...
My favourite solo of all time! He didn’t ask for superstardom! But to those who know. Better. He is and always will be an absolute legend And superstar! Rightly so! What a xx talent! X
of all his many amazing versions of this song, vocally I think this is THE one
