Thanks for posting all of these. Lindsey is very deep. His words and style of speaking is almost like a college professor. His comments about guitarists are pretty cool. He always believes the sum of all parts is greater than the whole. A guitarist is not there to grand stand but provide intricate parts of the song.
I remember how shocked I was in the early 1990s when I heard a Lindsey interview and he took a slight slam to Eddie Van Halen. I was in shock because Eddie is considered one of the few guitar Gods. But I think Lindsey meant all the song should not only be guitar melodies. It should only be one layer in the song. This coming from the guitarist who considers himself a painter This is why IMHO Lindsey is under-valued in the guitar world. He is not a show boater and the guitar is only one part of the song.
