While I was getting nostalgic last week about early 2011, apparently the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Lenny Kravitz, and Glen Campbell released new records. So let's get current, shall we, and step into the fall musical rush, along with Lindsey Buckingham and John Doe — a bunch of dudes well past 40, all proving that rock (and country and folk) can age gracefully.

PLAY: Lindsey Buckingham, “The Seeds We Sow”

Life with Fleetwood Mac is a double-edged sword for Buckingham — and his fans, although one could argue that Fleetwood Mac fans and Lindsey Buckingham fans are two separate crowds. Buckingham’s main talking point is that his supergroup is the “big movie,” while his solo works constitute his small “indie films.” Cynics would say that’s a politician’s way of managing expectations — and Buckingham’s own ego. However, any artist will realize that Lindsey Buckingham is smart enough to know that without Fleetwood Mac, he’d be another brilliant, starving musician. The Mac pays the bills, but the solo work keeps him from becoming a classic rock caricature. More of the group’s fans should join along.
“The Seeds We Sow” is better than any big-budget band album Buckingham has pushed out in decades. The title track and the beautifully amped-up “The Way Love Goes” show a player, writer, and singer still passionate at 62. I’ll tolerate a mediocre Fleetwood Mac album knowing the money is funding stuff like this one. It brings new meaning to art patronage.

WATCH Lindsay Buckingham perform “The Seeds We Sow” live at Saban Theatre in Beverly Hills.
