Loving Cup

[Macfan4life]

This is the Loving Cup appreciation thread. IMHO its one of his best solo songs yet I feel is over looked by many including him. When Lindsey released his "best of" collection several years ago THIS was not on it. Wrong was not on it either.

Loving Cup is awesome for several reasons. It has a great vibe
It showcases his acoustic guitar talents
It showcases his electric guitar riffs
It showcases an amazing electric guitar solo
It showcases his best lyrics, chorus, and hook

I remember when Go Insane came out this was played to death on the local rock station. Its the perfect mix of pop/rock and that modern tech that Lindsey was fascinated with in the 1980s where I think many times he went too far. I will even say Loving Cup is better than any of his Tango contributions.

It's one of the least discussed and least appreciated songs in his discography. Bob Aguirre, who played drums with Fritz, mentioned in his Q&A with the Penguin that he may have helped with the drum programming on that song.

Q: I noticed you are credited on the Lindsey Buckingham Go Insane album credits, could you tell us about your involvement in this. Best Wishes from the UK (Neil O'Donoghue, Surrey, United Kingdom)

A: Neil, right place, right time. I think I might have done some drum programming on Loving Cup.

It has so many elements that really work in the song. All of Lindsey's talents as a guitarist, producer, and arranger are showcased. Lindsey is not known for lyrics but I think it has some great writing and a catchy chorus too.
