Thats exactly how I describe seeing him live -- every live show I've been to when he started with either Castaway Dreams/Shut Us Down, everyone in the audience was just mesmerized. I had heard both of these songs before, but I don't think I really fell in love with them until I heard them live (the echo on CAD still bothers me on the album.) The way he can hold a note is just breathtaking.

GOS was meant to be a solo album. It was so great just as it was. Shame on WB for saying NO to it

Thanks and yes, I was at both. I usually would have gotten to the venue early since Council Bluffs was GA, but I couldn't get out of meetings at work and had to drive on a 2 lane highway with lots of road construction all the way up, so I just had to sneak up as close as I could when I came just a few mins before the show started (ended up having a really nice view right on the edge of the crowd that was right in front, though.) If there are any shows close to KC, I will be there & hope you can make it! I keep thinking it would be really awesome if he would play at the Midland (old historic theatre downtown that has been renovated and looks gorgeous on the inside.) Doesn't really matter where he plays, though, as long as he comes soon |

Even though I am fascinated with his strengths, I'm not blinded to his weaknesses. The thinning of his voice makes a difference in his tone just as much as Stevie's deepening, nasal quality makes a difference in hers. Thankfully, neither of their weaknesses has imparied the voices to the extent that they should not be using them anymore or God forbid where they cannot sing harmony together anymore. Their voices still blend together very well. Lindsey even talked about this once in a more recent interview. And, I totally agree with you about Unleashed GDW - magic together. It would not be the same if one wasn't there - and it isn't the same when Stevie does it solo. -------- To everyone else who I can't respond to because I'm outnumbered I'll just point this out - Lindsey could s**t onstage and you would think it was awesome. LOL. And, I will always say it would be more awesome if Stevie was holding the pot. Two is better than one!

agree, looks like your opinion is a minority opinion. Quote:
LB's voice actually used to be thin when he was young, and he artificially keeps thinning it in his studio recordings (which bothers me to no end!), while his voice now is not thin by any stretch anymore - it's much fuller and deeper. but you've heard him live recently, i'm sure you know that. Quote:
hmm, accusing people of being indiscriminately blinded by someone when you seem to run out of argument!? especially when people bring up clear exhibits A-Z. i know you love the whole BN saga and Stevie and Lindsey chemistry together and seem to look at everything from that perspective... and that's cool, the same as the rest of us love LB solo. and since you brought up non-musically related stuff - i can clearly see while Viv for example would prefer LB kissing her from the stage instead of having someone else up on that stage he can get to first.

^oh I think you know by now that I never run out of argument ... but do get tired of arguing.
As you said we all have our likes and I do realize I am in the Lindsey forum for my minority opinion. I don't mind. Someone has to keep the BN banner waving and I'm cool with that. I think LB's voice was higher when he was younger, not thinner. The prime was probably between 1992-1997. Oh, & I never said Stevie's voice isn't flawed now. But, you're right - doesn't bother me. I still like it (for the most part) and still think her harmony with LB rounds out the songs. I've always said that I dig them as individuals but prefer them together - that the whole is greater than the sum of the parts line LB uses all the time.

In the end I can't complain too much because we've got the Stevie-fied SYW versions and the original GOS1 versions so that means both options are there to pick between |

I understand why quite a few people want LB to stay solo. Still, a lot of people who are here have been Fleetwood Mac fans for a long time. I think a lot of them would feel that there needs to be at least one more FM album. If Fleetwood Mac doesn't want to record as a band after that, I would try to understand. There needs to be some sort of closure to the music as a band.
