His attempt to reinvigorate the parameters of the "well-made" pop song in the established vein of the 1940s--with "Soul Drifter," for example--doesn't really extend some specific agenda on "Tusk." But it obviously was something that Lindsey had been thinking about for a long time--possibly since the time in the 1970s when he inherited his dad's collection of 45s.
And as far as extending the reconceptualizing of the recording medium on "Tusk": I would say he neither started with "Tusk" nor ended with it, but "Tusk" certainly was the biggest single leap in that direction in the annals of Lindsey's career.
