THE BIG INTERVIEW WITH LINDSEY BUCKINGHAM, TUESDAY APRIL 28TH APRIL 23, 2015
GRAMMY® WINNING FLEETWOOD MAC ROCKER LINDSEY BUCKINGHAM JOINS DAN RATHER FOR AN ALL-NEW EPISODE OF THE BIG INTERVIEW ON TUESDAY, ARIL 28, AT 8pE
Lindsey Buckingham rocks THE BIG INTERVIEW, as the Grammy winning Fleetwood Mac icon sits down with Dan Rather in an all-new episode on Tuesday, April 28, at 8pE.
Lindsey Buckingham’s passion for music was ignited at a young age by a toy Mickey Mouse guitar, which he would use to play along to his brother’s record collection. Wanting to encourage their son’s talent, Buckingham’s parents bought him a $35 Harmony guitar. By the age of 13, Buckingham had immersed himself in the sounds of his native San Francisco’s burgeoning music scene, finding influences in folk music, psychedelic rock, and even the banjo. By 17, Buckingham had joined the Bay Area band Fritz, and it was here that he and legendary vocalist Stevie Nicks would begin a storied collaboration that would come to define both of their personal and professional legacies.
After leaving Fritz, the duo of Buckingham and Nicks released an album together in 1973, but were subsequently dropped from their record label due to poor sales. It wasn’t until 1974 when things would really begin to take off for the duo, following a chance encounter with Mick Fleetwood at Sound City studio in California. Impressed by Buckinghams’s guitar playing on the duo’s single, “Frozen Heart,” Fleetwood invited Buck and Nicks to join his band, Fleetwood Mac, following the departure of guitarist Bob Welch. Two years later, the band released the blockbuster smash Rumours, propelling them into superstardom and securing their place in Rock N’ Roll history, thanks in large part to the strength of the now-legendary hit track “Go Your Own Way,” which Buckingham wrote. The band’s star would rise even further thanks to albums such as Tusk, Mirage, and Tango In The Night. Feeling burned out from growing tensions and his own desire to not tour, Buckingham left Fleetwood Mac in 1987. Buckingham returned to the band in 1997 after embarking on a fruitful solo venture, and he continues to record and tour with them to this day.
Since entering the music industry in 1968, Buckingham has enjoyed a highly successful career—both as a solo artist and with Fleetwood Mac—that has spanned almost five decades. During that time, he has released a total of 23 studio albums, received a GRAMMY®, a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and an induction into the Rock N’ Roll Hall of Fame. Although he never took guitar lessons and does not read music, Buckingham is recognized as a legendary guitarist and songwriter, and was named one of the 100 Greatest Guitarists by Rolling Stone Magazine in 2011.
THE BIG INTERVIEW airs every Tuesday at 8pE, only on AXS TV. We’d love to hear your thoughts, too, so share on Facebook and Twitter using #axsTBI.

Josh Groban is a record producer but Lindsey isn't? Funny how they always seem to not recognized that part of his accomplishments whenever he's described. He really is the architect of FM's sound especially since Tusk.

For heaven's sake. And even if this question is just being asked for the casual fan, doesn't the casual fan KNOW ALREADY too? The stories have been told non stop for almost 40 years. Even those people who think that Fleetwood Mac was a specialty McDonald's hamburger still know about the divorces, the drugs, the compartmentalization.
There is NO ONE who does not know.
Can you ever get to a point where audience knowledge is assumed. When Paul McCartney goes on a talk show do they say, "So, um, what do you do for a living?"

Larry King once called Paul George during a 2006 interview. Knowledge can't be assumed.
See, us Paul fans have to deal with this just as much. Do you know how many times I have rolled my eyes through an explanation of how he wrote Yesterday, or the way he and John collaborated on We Can Work it Out, or how he's always inspired but he came CLOSE to it not happening with Drive My Car, or how he and John DID make up before he died and talked about baking bread and....
And Paul does more interviews too. Over a longer period of time.

My sister's a casual fan, but the only reason she knows anything about them is because of me. Prior to me becoming a major fan, she only knew the hits and band members' names. She didn't know that Lindsey and Stevie dated, or even that Lindsey's an American. As much as we know all the details, many still don't.
As for Paul McCartney, we know not all of Kanye's fans know who he is. :D

Yes, it's not unlike him talking about the DJ criticizing the initial version of GYOW on the radio and Lindsey saying he was going to head right over to the radio station, because he said he was much 'feistier' (fightier) back then than he is now.
Michele
for those of us who don't get AXS and haven't found the whole interview online yet, can you tell us what Dan asked about temper and how he answered? :)
he kinda sidestepped that one mostly, just said that he used to have a temper, that it's in the past. that there was lot of frustration for not being able to have closure with stevie yet having to work with her, coming from pent up anger that he had to keep it bottled up and put on his best face with songs / at work, so temper manifested itself in his personal life. that temper is something that comes out when you try to keep stuff bottled up at one side, it's something that manifests itself in a destructive way instead.
his assertion may have been that not only is he now happy and settled, but also that unlike in the past, he has learned how to channel any frustration he may have into something constructive.

no, no. it was the author of that article who i guess was making both a reference to what happened to Dan Rather and REM song - since it was DR interviewing a songwriter.

The REM song is based on what happened to Dan Rather. The Dan Rather incident happened 8 years before that song came out. In the eighties, Dan says these two men attacked him and kept saying, "Kenneth what is the frequency." People thought Dan was cuckoo and REM made a song about what happened to Dan Rather, 8 years later.

No one minded your Barry stories, but causing a lot of confusion and furor by starting a thread that says NBC.com reports that Fleetwood Mac has completed the first song from their new album was more of a prank than a "joke" or storytelling. The only humorous part of it was, I imagine, to see people get disappointed when they found out it was a gag. People can and do engage in such pranks on April Fools, but I wouldn't recommend it as a regular feature and told you so.

Michele
I have already took your recommendation as you can see by my response
to vivfox comment.
What you "imagined" is wrong. Without re-reading my own post of the
"new" or completed song, what was funny about it to me was that how
much (with a few pronoun changes) it read like a Stevie Nicks written
song.
I picked that particular Elvis song out of thin air. Unless it could be in
my subconscious mind (and with as much as I've listened to Elvis it could
be). So as I was writing it out, the more I wrote the funnier it was to me
at how it matched what Stevie would write herself. Even the time period
from which Stevie's best songs are from matched.
As with most of my old stories I usually included enough information that
anyone reading comprehensively would at very least pause and consider is
this "truth"?
Anyone that was "furious" at any of my stories, or anyone else's for that
matter needs help.
This was a simple explanation of the story you brought up. Not an
argument asking that the creative part of myself be restored to The Ledge.
As I said, from now on just the facts and a few comments now and again.

Anyone that was "furious" at any of my stories, or anyone else's for that

People make up FM lyrics all of the time, to the amusement of many, but they don't usually create misleading threads to do it in.
The people who were annoyed by your thread title: First song from New Album completed? NBC.com and the fact that you followed up with a fake scoop from last night's Carson Daly show had a valid complaint. They weren't in need of "help," mental or otherwise. When they clicked on expecting legitimate FM news and got one of your pranks instead, they were right to be irritated. There's no need to cast aspersions on others because your fake thread wasn't appreciated.
Your thread wasn't removed, I simply posted in it telling you to stop pranking people. That was a couple of years ago. You don't need to keep griping about it. You feel lobotomized -- or, at least, strait-jacketed. I get it. I got it years ago. Thanks for checking in with the Lindsey youtube information so that everyone could check out his interview.

I'm glad.
Now back to the interview. I've enjoyed all the interviews
so far from Dan. The Jack White and Vince Gill interviews
were my favorites. Vince's might bring a tear to your eye.
As much as I've enjoyed them, I can't help but imagine the
Dan Rather of the past would think such interviews were

His hair reminded me of the Heat Miser from The Year w/o a Santa Claus.

Thanks Nicole for taking the time to write the transcript..
Thanks for wondering about me.I'm still alive.
He's fine. Just enjoying himself in lurking mode for a while.
I thought you might be joking but sure enough, there it was. And so I watched it.
Yea I took some time off from the boards as FM took theirs from the road.

Uh huh. Well look at Brian Williams now. Maybe Dan is not the crazy one.
Of course, I support Brian Williams and I want him back at NBC, despite the fabrications. I'm just saying that I think Dan Rather's reputation has suffered to an unwarranted extent and I did not support his being pushed out.

I want Brian back too! He made a few bad decisions and they threw him out. Second chance have been given to people who have done much worse.
