Best Guitar Cds of the Week - Week of 09/06/2011
Lindsey Buckingham - Seeds We Sow
Lindsey Buckingham fans are in for a treat. All the things you would want from a Buckingham solo album,the slightly oddball arrangements,the lush Beach Boys inspired background vocals,the unique finger style guitar, are not only here but are better than ever. Headphone listeners in particular will have fun as Buckingham,who handled all of the mixing and production duties,has his trademark guitar tone doing all manner of cool tricks in the stereo field.It is,of course,the guitar in particular that caught my attention. There is an impressive amount of drool-worthy playing that never takes away from the focus of the song.
I was also surprised to notice that this is the first time Buckingham,a noted control freak,has released something on his own label. The freedom seems to suit him well. Instead of leading to self indulgence,Buckingham has released his most intimated and focused solo album thus far.
No word on a solo tour yet but Buckingham reports he's hoping for a Fleetwood Mac tour in 2011.
EDIT: huh - no word on the solo tour?!?!?! - people should really read up on what they are writing from time to time!
