The Lindsey Buckingham Singles Collection
 

He should come out with a Singles compilation.

If he did, what would be the complete US(ONLY) Lindsey Buckingham Singles collection?

Should it be for solo only or B/N & the Mac?

Also, part of me feels that Love Runs Deeper would count because it was part of the GOS EP. Part of me feels it wouldn't. Why DIDN'T they just release that as the single, then? Ridiculous.

Anyway, are these his only US Singles as a NON-Mac artist?

1. "Don't Let Me Down Again" (1973) (w/ Buckingham Nicks)
2. "Without A Leg To Stand On" (1974) (w/ Buckingham Nicks)
3. "Trouble" (1981)
4. "It Was I" (1981?)
5. "Holiday Road" (1983)
6. "Dancin' 'Cross The USA" (1983)<---------U.S.??????
7. "I Want You Back" (1983) (w/ Mick Fleetwood's The Zoo)
8. "Go Insane" (1984)
9. "Slow Dancing" (1984)
10. "Wrong" (1992)
11. "Countdown" (1992)
12. "Soul Drifter" (1992?)
13. "Show You How" (2006)
14. "Did You Miss Me" (2008)
15. "Love Runs Deeper" (2009)<-------Just EP or Single?

All of the above?

Unfortunately Oh Diane was released in the USA as a single. I wish instead it had been Can't Go Back, but it wasn't a single in the States.

'It Was I' and 'Soul Drifter' were singles. Also, 'Don't Let Me Down Again' (or is that considered both a Stevie/Lindsey song)

Don't Let Me Down Again was a single? I didn't know that. Thought it was only Without a Leg...

It's backed with 'Races Are Run'

You are awesome! Thank you!

Here's a picture.

ah! i believe that makes it seem to be UK though? i'm looking for us releases

That does say it's a UK release, but in Mick's other book My 25 years with Fleetwood Mac black hardcover (the black book with more pictures), in the back it has a discography and this is listed as a US release.

Us ole time Ledgies know that Mick is mostly useless with old recolections.:]

Well, who knows if he actually wrote the discography or not. All I can say is that the discography is pretty much accurate on everything, as far as I can tell.

Here's a different copy

I'm trying to make a list of the Singles that were released to impact the US market. I don't think that's an unusual parameter for a Singles Collection (songs released as singles in Poland aren't usually on Singles collections for artists such as The Pet Shop Boys; of course, their most recent Singles collection was based on UK chart rankings--they had to be top 20 hits, so it was a greatest hits collection, but you get the point).

Thank you Again! you are awesome!! Which came first: Don't Let Me Down or Without a Leg?

Don't Let Me Down Again (November 1973). Without a Leg To Stand On (February 1974)

I think it would be cool not to limit the compilation to just US singles. Lindsey is an international artist! So you can also include 'Can't Go Back.'

Best of's, singles collections, greatest hits have become the latest rage among older artists still releasing new music. My favorite part of this tendency is that these compilations also always include at least one new song! Also, these singles collections are used to promote a new album: see Morrissey, Bryan Ferry, Scritti Politti. I think Buck should seriously do this, especially as the much-sought-after Holiday Road is not available and remasters for, at least, the singles from his 80s output are sorely needed.

Would be a good project during these 18 months for Liddy to do.

stop living in the past :mad:

;) just kidding

OT: me wants a solo tour and new album.

"Holiday Road" was finally (but quietly) released on a commonly available CD in 2009. The CD is called "A Hollywood Christmas" (Time-Life 24892). It slipped right by me, but I read about it recently on another music forum and just got my copy today from Amazon.

And lo & behold, it sounds pretty decent and appears to be from a tape source (the song's appearance on the old Words & Music comp was transferred from vinyl). There are a couple of strange clicks in the right channel a few seconds in, which had me fearing it was another vinyl transfer. But I checked my personal vinyl transfer and those same clicks are there, so those must be an anomaly of the recording or the master tape.

It's great to finally get this long sought-after song on a proper CD release! Now if we could just get "Dancin' Across the U.S.A."!

Holiday Road and Dancin' Across the U.S.A. are also on the National Lampoons Christmas Vacation CD. Are these taken from vinyl??

I would prefer a mac project, but if Stevie is doing a solo thing; he should too. :thumbsup: :mad:

Yes, those are needle drops on that CD. Actually, the legitimacy of the CD is highly questionable and I suspect it's a bootleg. Someone claimed on one of the online forums that it was sold legitimately at a California theme park (maybe Magic Mountain), but that was disputed. In any event, this CD is not the place to go for tape sources of LB's Vacation songs.

Considering that I only had an LP for these songs, I guess I really couldn't tell.
Do you think the MP3s of these songs have reasonable quality?

Seriously both Scritti Politti and Bryan Ferry are/have released Singles Collections in build-up to new release: AND included at least one new track on said collections. I think Lindsey's people should get on that . . .

I've listened to the 22-track version endlessly since starting this thread, and it makes for a fascinating and beautiful listen. ... And there's still room for one disc to include two more tracks!

If I ran Hollywood . . .

ah...the chicken (leg)?
