This matter of sheen is an odd one because every album Lindsey has done after Tusk has been a compromise between the studio polish of Rumours and the quirkiness (there's that word again!) of the double platter.

I don't think the drums are the issue at all here anyway. If OOTC was his first attempt at this supposedly new approach with guitar then I don't think a real rhythm section would have added a thing in there. The only things on SYW that have a similar kind of layered approach are the ones where Mick and John are not playing. You can make a case for "Miranda" but that one has both OOTC and Law And Order in it.

It's just that I hope sometime all those "alternative critics" pay attention to his brilliance.

I hope for that too but for those people the studio polish and the experimentalism, the occasional mainstream treatments and the punkish bravado, are probably incongruous.

It's them who need to change, not Lindsey. ;)

1. Your fave Stevie song, based on Lindsey arrangement and collaboration: Okay now this is HARD!! Either "Storms" (because the demo sounds worlds apart from the amazing finished product) or "Long Distance Winner."
2. Your fave Chris song, based on Lindsey arrangement and collaboration: "Think About Me," or "Hold Me." (love those vocals!)
3. Your fave Lindsey video: "Big Love"
4. Your fave live performance: "Go Insane" from The Dance or Linds's version of "Oh Well."
5. Your fave guitar section: "Long Distance Winner" all of it!
6. Your fave solo album: GOS, HA! I cheated!
7. The solo song you would have liked to be a mac song: "Holiday Road"

1.Gypsy-the ultimate collobaration between the two...it still sucks live, though :sorry: :sorry: :laugh: .
2.You Make Loving Fun-hey, even Lindsey said this was his favorite Chris song.
3.I LOVE Hold Me...Lindsey looks so smooth and badass in it...okay maybe badass isn't the best word to use...
4.GYOW from the Live album...AMAZING...
5.Any and all parts of ISA...
6.Law and Order
7.I'll Tell You Now...I think that much of LAO should have made future mac albums, but alas, Lindsey decided to record crap like Empire State instead...I love to imagine what this song would be with Chris and Stevie doing the chorus...::Shudders with pleasure::...
