There's an hour long episode episode dedicated to OOTC (033). Oh, and one about The Dance (027) is there as well, if you're interested.

I enjoyed listening to these! One guy is thoughtful and soft-spoken, the other is bombastic. The only criticism is that they did not play even snippets of the songs. This may be a license issue, but the Rock and/or Roll Podcast on the Genius of Lindsey Buckingham, Part 1, played all of LB's Tusk Songs on a Podcast.

Absolutely. This, and tusk, get listened to start to finish.

love love love these songs:
Don't look down
You do or you don't
Turn it on

Very close to mine:

Don't Look Down
You Do Or You Don't
Surrender the Rain

I completely agree, though Bella Donna is quite good too.

I stupidly only picked one. Woops.

If I DID do it right, it would be

1. 'All My Sorrows'
2. 'Soul Drifter'
3. 'Say We'll Meet Again'

OOTC is the second or third best FM solo album in my opinion. Bella Donna is just about a masterpiece and The Wild Heart is really great too. Then after OOTC there's Trouble in Shangri-La and Under the Skin, which are nearly as excellent.

Cradle will always be my favorite LP by Lindsey. Not that he hasn't made some other good LP/cds after it but this will always be my favorite just like some of Stevie's earlier LP's will be my favorite's too. Cradle is such a great body of work for Lindsey. Its a cohesive LP from start to finish. I just wish we'd get a AWESOME box set from Lindsey with outtakes from all his LP's. I know we've talked about this before on here. I mean Mac & Stevie both have box sets so Lindsey's needs a box set also. If anyone can tweet him ask him this question. I can't but I would so love it. Too many songs to list as great I picked 3 songs above but I really think I love most of them just like the Tusk LP. Some LP's are special and this is Lindsey's special LP as well and the tour though I never saw him live solo but I did (or do ) have the video and audio for this tour and its great. (I've seen him with Mac though).
