I guess I look at that a bit less literally/autobiographically. While he probably does literally mean, changing from Fleetwood Mac to solo (name); from pop to weird (insane), I read it -- metaphorically -- as losing his sense of himself.

Fleetwood Mac helped me through a time of heartbreak. 12 years later, they broke my heart.

frankly, when i strike it wildly rich and can afford a rain room, its my first investment. id write a song about it too.
That's another beautiful picture of Lindsey that Mick has in his book. Lindsey in the rain room. Too bad his kids didn't stay in the house long enough to appreciate that room. I bet it would really enchant a child.

Thats fascinating, I wasn't aware that there was a picture of him in the rain room out there somewhere!

Yes, it's another one of Lindsey from the back, which I like because to me it captures the sense of him being burrowed in music or thought.
