GP: Who was your main lead guitar influence?

Lindsey Buckingham: I can't say it was any one person. I used to love Led Zeppelin, but I never sat around trying to learn Jimmy Page licks. In terms of developing a sense of melody, I was helped along by Dave Mason's ALONE TOGETHER -- a wonderful album with a very pretty kind of lead guitar style.

Was anyone else surprised (but happy) to find this?

John
Yes, I noticed that too. I was very surprised to read that, especially considering what he had to say about the Time lineup. Also, I've always wondered why he agreed to do background vocals on one song on the "Time" album when he didn't really seem to like the idea of Mick continuing on with Fleetwood Mac at that time.
