  • Lindsey Buckingham’s signature finger-style guitar is perhaps as recognizable as the countless classic songs he wrote while he was in Fleetwood Mac. Buckingham is a self-taught guitar virtuoso and songwriter who famously joined Fleetwood Mac in the mid ‘70s with his then girlfriend, Stevie Nicks. The band had been around since ‘67 with various singers, guitarists and songwriters. The only constant was their rhythm section: drummer Mick Fleetwood and bassist John McVie. But the band didn’t blow up until Buckingham and Nicks joined, writing mega hits for their insanely successful 10th and 11th albums including the 20-times platinum album, Rumours. On today’s episode Bruce Headlam talks to Lindsey Buckingham about his new self-titled solo album. Buckingham also tells Bruce that he and Nicks never really got closure from their breakup, and how that affected their professional relationship in the decades since.

      Call me blasphemous but boiling it down I could've replaced everyone except Lindsey and Christine, who was a great songwriter and musician totally holding her own and with that super soulful voice of hers.
      The great Peter Green era was like a different band altogether, which also goes to show the power of such frontmen who play, sing and write like none other - the full package as they say.
      Some members put on their sprinkle or function as "keels" that keep rocking boats from capsizing and that is admireable, but I'm talking about who are the actual sails and/or rudders of the boat.

    I love everything about this interview and about Lindsey and Stevie. I believe there can never really be closure in the area of loving someone. Its okay to still love them in a whole new way. It was meant to be❤ back then , and still today, it's meant to be in a special new way of seeing eachother.❤ what's most important is the lessons we've learned slong the way 😊

    Stevie said she broke up with him, if that’s the case why does she have such a dislike of him? If it wasn’t for him, telling Mick only with her he would join the band with her. We may not have known her.

    The trick as an artist is to change just enough to hold people's interest, without sounding like your second album was made from rejects from your first album, but not so much that people say "What the hell is this?" Boston's second album sounded like rejects from the first. Tusk was a "What the hell is this?"

    Lindsey is such a great soul.. I can see him getting chewed up by a certain member of FM ... who doesn't have half his talents. Thank god he is still alive, health first before fame, money or whatever. Great guy great songwriter and producer. The Paul McCartney of FM - without him nothing would get done.
