Take a trot over to his website and WOW -- (just type in the lindseybuckingham.com into your browser and have the volume up! ... or your earphones on...the earphones make the experience so indescribable!!!)

You won't be disappointed.....

You have to see the BLUE!!! Incredible! (Don't go into his website...just stay on the BLUE!!)

They got clickable stuff and you can buy the CD/DVD which is available March 25th.

Maybe this is old news...but I have been enjoying the free music---I have NEVER heard it like this...I don't know what kind of files these are, but they are so clear!
DAMN, I am excited!

So far I have heard

I am so pathetic...any free music is a good thing. I keep clicking into the website and back so that I can re-start the music. I can't believe how CLEAR it is, like your ear is right next to the various instruments and voices.

BTW -- I have you covered for a copy Vanessa....when Amazon decides to ship.

Cool! Looks good... Sounds GREAT!

Peestie 03-18-2008 04:32 AM

Cool. I don't know what they've done to the audio, but I think it sounds better. It doesn't sound like it's been remixed but it does sound a whole lot better (maybe it wasn't mastered before?)! :D

And it's nice to see he's got a link to "Premium" quality files as well as the iTunes mp3. Someone like Lindsey should be trying to represent his art in the most high quality ways.

Does anyone know if the Not Too Late documentary appears on the CD/DVD combo only, or is it also on the single DVD thing? The info at Amazon is still incomplete.

Sweet! You can hear me say "Oh yeah!" before Holiday Road kicks in. :]

I can't wait!! I can't wait!! :blob2::blob2::blob2::blob2:

I don't care much for the LB site, but the new front page is pretty.

shackin'up 03-18-2008 02:05 PM

Incredible sound, but I'm a bit double about the songchoices. At least UTS should be there as one of the three streams.....I'm very eager to hear that one in this quality....

...but just curious, Sarah.. what don't you like about the LB site?

I'm just a bit uncomfortable about the "team" that runs the site.

I dunno... sometimes you find out that it's a blessing when the biggest unofficial site doesn't just become the official site. Lord knows if the petition to make the Penguin the official FM site back in the day had actually worked... we definitely wouldn't have this valuable resource that we have today.

I don't remember the LB site before it became official, so I can't say a whole lot about that.. I just wish that Lindsey Q and A stuff and everything else with his site didn't take a year to be edited and put up. Let's be honest.. we know with Lindsey not being on tour that that .. "team".. doesn't have a lot to do at the moment.:laugh:

Maybe the people who agree to officialize their sites, when the pitch is made, need to be a little more adamant about wanting to maintain a little independence. They have to assure the doofy managers & lawyers that there won't be a nuclear holocaust if they post things faster & more frequently, or keep a more active, fanlike atmosphere around the site. And if info is drying up from the managers, the site admins need to be on them: "You're pissing off hundreds of fans by dragging your tails, & it could hurt Lindsey's sales in the by & by."

Do what CNN does when the economy stinks: Run a poll & activate the comments feature! Nothing communicates more strongly than a few thousand comments from fans complaining about why it's taking an entire year to post some Q&A's.

The "team" registered the domain name some time before Lindsey's management came to realize that he needed Internet representation. When that time came, said "team" reaped the rewards.

I sat next to said "team" opening night of the SYW tour in Columbus... that was, um... something.

All of you people no nothing of what you are talking about!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think people are entirely too critical of the site and expect too much. It's not a fan site anymore - where they can just post whatever they want, whenever they want - there are guidelines they must follow.

Being an official site, I'm sure "the team" has to get approval before any changes can be made to the site. They also have to wait to receive any news, photos, or other material before they can even post anything to begin with, so it seems to me that any "blame" should be laid at the feet of Lindsey's management, and not on those actually maintaining the site itself.

Let's also not forget that these people are probably not paid for running the site and also have lives of their own. As big of fans as they may be, working on the site probably has to take a backseat to more personal obligations like jobs, boyfriends/husbands, school, etc.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with the official site. It is well presented contains plenty of information is regularly updated these days and plays free songs too.
The ledge forum is a completely different type of site which will always have wealths more information, titbits and specific details that the official site couldnt possibly present. Remember there are 1000's of people providing feedback and information here every week.
I enjoy the official site and think it is doing very well. It is also free and not a lot of official sites do that anymore so we should be thankful for that. Just look at the fleetwoodmac.com. It is a complete disaster with no updates of any kind in the last 3 years yet they can demand up to $80 per year to tell us this.

The Q&A might be slow but we are getting it !! If everything came at once then we would have nothing to look forward to

I completely agree...couldn't have said it better! I love Lindsey's site. We should be happy to get anything considering it's Lindsey we're talking about here and I say this with much love. ;) That being said, I wouldn't mind more Q&A but hopefully that will come with the DVD/CD release.
