He's had quite a few reviews in British newspapers, all of the ones I've seen are positive.
Here's one:
'You may not have heard of Lindsey Buckingham but you'll be familiar with his work. He's the man behind Fleetwood Mac's Rumours album as well as the follow up Tusk, a sprawling experimental record that could not have been more different to its predecessor.
Buckingham's obscurity is a shame as his solo albums have consistently welded the pop nous of Rumours to the restless nature of Tusk.
Nearing 60 now he has made one of the albums of his life. Love runs deeper is a surging rush of guitar pop that benefits from a big chorus and a thrilling avalanche of massed accoustic guitars, an approach that also works on The right place to fade. Well worth investigating.'
A second one:
The major powerhouse and songwriter behind FM's golden era, Buckingham's knack for blending experimentation and killer hooks finds sharp focus on his fifth solo album.
Buckingham unleashes incendiary guitar licks aplenty. Clash meets Beach Boys style rocking fun and mixes a feel for exotic topicality with seasoned sensitivity and political committment.'
