He really likes this font layout, doesn't he? Wasn't this meant to come with the studio album?

Setlist/Extras
 

http://www.evo88.com/zht/music?page=...product_id=373

I think the setlist matches the actual performance. Only extra listed is an interview with LB. I thought Jokerstyle productions was filming other stuff for the DVD.

I was going to steal that line of his yabbering for an album name if I ever got round to it! He beat me to it.

I like the name and I'm glad the whole set made it in. I was really bummed when Red Rover and the others were dropped from Live at Bass Hall.

EDIT: It'd be nice to see his website get on top of promoting this... and the album!

Ahhh Brilliant !!!! A bit of great new news.

Love ther idea of blu ray, I spent over £500 on a bluray machine 2 years ago and hve never bought one bluray disk.
Well i can guarntee you now Songs from the small machine will be first in my collection.
Roll on Oct 31st.

I forgive you now for the less than average radio apperance, this has made up for it. Hope there are plenty of extras on the bluray, god knows theres plenty of room for them.

Brilliant title, far better artwork. Even better fontplacing, although Live In LA again is too low on the page...


BTW: I bet the interview is the one in his back garden/ on the stairs of his house that we already know...

Yeah, did he design it himself or something? Linds . . .

Michele

Yeah, homemade, much? If he paid anybody for this he was jacked. :woohoo:

I guess if he has to use one of his repeated analogies that is not a bad one. He kinda looks like Megamind with all that forehead though.

So this is a 2 disc set. Any guesses what the second disc is? Mine is that it's an audio version of the show with some songs left out to make it fit.

Wonder why he pulls out Turn It On and Treason...

So there's room for SHN and GYOW... :distress:

I'll just be ripping the audio off the DVD anyway. I'll probably never even take the CD out of the case.

I still like SHN (though I like it better with Stevie), but yeah, enough GYOW already! It's not like we HAVE live versions (legally) of Turn It On, or anything from GOS...

EDIT: And also to ensure a place for *yawn* Big Love...

Oh I still like/love all the songs in this set but I agree it's silly to repeat songs when new live version could be put on there.

Songs from the Small Machine DVD & Blu Ray
 

Listed on Amazon.com. Seem like pretty good prices ($13.99 for the Blu Ray).

Excellent price! I just bought a blu-ray player so I'm pretty pumped for the enhanced quality!

I think this DVD is going to be 10x better than the Bass Hall release. The set list for the Savan show is much better than what we got for the UTS tour. The new songs from SWS sounded phenomenal that night, plus he did a bunch of older favorites I'm excited to see. I wish he put this DVD out in coordination with the album! I really don't want to wait until the end of October!

same here - this will be much better than Bass, and i can't wait to have clean live versions to listen too. no matter how great i think album version of IOOT is, when i heard this clean live version on his IOOT video - :nod::xoxo::] - perfection!!

am i just blind, or there is no DVD+CD version listed [yet]?

I'm pretty sure I saw a DVD+CD combo listed somewhere (nickslive, perhaps). I know Turn it On was the only song not to make the CD of course. :distress:

yeah it was listed by Eagle Rock, on UK sites, and also some Japanese sites. hope US version will have CD too (lazy to make it myself from DVD). and yeah, was very unhappy that Turn it on especially but also Treason were left out.

Dvd/cd
 

Amazon in the US will be selling the same as the UK, Blu Ray ($13.99), DVD/CD ($13.99) and just the DVD ($10.49). All with a November 1 release date.

We saw the full tracklists. Where r those again?

And yes it's a shame that Turn it On is not going to make the cd :(

DVD and CD track lists
 

DVD and Blu Ray follow the original concert set list. Three songs on the DVD are not on the CD (Go Insane, Turn It On and Treason).

Blu-ray Review “Lindsey Buckingham: Songs From the Small Machine- Live in L.A.”
October 31, 2011 By Mike Gencarelli Leave a Comment
Starring: Lindsey Buckingham
Studio: Eagle Rock Entertainment
Rated: NR (Not Rated)
Running Time: 125 mins

Our Score: 3 out of 5 stars

Who does know and love Fleetwood Mac? Growing up I remember listening to them with my father, who still has a thing for Stevie Nicks. This concert was filmed in high-definition at The Saban Theater in Beverly Hills, California in April 2011 and is packed with amazing DTS Surround-Sound track. The sound was great and delivers some great new and old tunes. The video resolution was really great and very clear. It is hard when watching a concert on the TV then watching it live. This does a pretty good job and pulling you into the show and right into the action.

Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall Of Famer Lindsey Buckingham, male lead singer for Fleetwood Mac, delivers a fun concert and a great presentation on Blu-ray. Since he is solo, it is not unexpected that he performs his new songs (some which kick some ass) and he plays some hits from Fleetwood Mac days. The guy really knows how to play the guitar, both acoustic and electric. The concert was almost split into two different shows with Lindsey and his guitar alone for the first couple of songs then he brings in the the rest of the band. They definitely kick up the energy and deliver a fun show. Picking up this release is a real no brainer for fans of Fleetwood Mac and Lindsey Buckingham.

^^ i asked the guy why 3 of 5 when the write up seems so great. his response:

@MediaMikes @ellellew wasn't the most excited concert overall good.

:rolleyes:

It's weird it's only avail on iTunes as a movie, not the cd. So it won't play on my ipod but will play on my iphone. :(

yes, i keep hoping they'll have MP3 versions and songs in itunes - seems stupid not to:shrug:

so i watched interview part of DVD - initial observations:

• there's no behind the scenes filmed at Saban available as a preview on his website, that would've been nice... so it seems that no extra footage from Jokerstyle productions other than the interview made it in.
  
• any LB fan can just skip through the first 1/2 or possibly even 2/3 of the interview b/c it's all the same usual stuff.
  
• the last part of the interview is where it becomes interesting - he analyzes each of the songs that made it to the DVD / live version, and there some new stuff there.
  
• interesting part of the interview starts about the time he says "i have no apprehension about putting something new in front of an audience"

from the concert part, just listened to encore so far since the rest was on Palladia already. so weird to see Turn it on with everybody just standing there in confusion considering how much dancing craziness it elicits nowadays on the tour:laugh:

The first three rows were reserved for special guests that only stood up for standing ovations and GYOW. The hardcore fans started in Row 4 (and there was an aisle between rows three and four). It was kind of weird/awkward to not have the front rows standing and grooving the entire concert.

Interview with Lindsey Buckingham


Lindsey Buckingham is one of the really big names in rock and roll heaven, maybe not so much because of his solo career, but because of his great contribution to the rock group Fleetwood Mac, where he plays guitar and produces discs. Then he had an affair with Stevie Nicks that would become the group's singer because Lindsey did not set up otherwise you could say that he founded Fleetwood Mac as we know it today. In addition to this great effort has Lindsey Buckingham released a total of six solo albums from the early 80s to date, which last was named Seeds We Sow. It is in connection with the release, which he took to the Songs From the Small Machine tour that was filmed in April 2011.

Tracks:
first Shut Us Down
2nd Go Insane
third Trouble
fourth Never Going Back Again
fifth Big Love
6th Under The Skin
7th All My Sorrows
8th In Our Own Time
ninth Illumination
10th Second Hand News
11th Tusk
12th Stars Are Crazy
13th End Of Time
14th That's The Way Love Goes
15th I'm So Afraid
16th Go Your Own Way
17th Turn It On
18th Treason
19th Seeds We Sow

When the concert starts we are invited to a very intimate experience when Lindsey faces the audience alone with acoustic guitar in the show's first five numbers. He says that it was like that he started his career in a warm conversation with the audience. Although the songs are acoustic, does not mean they are especially dim when Lindsey cleans hard with the guitar and may show the gallant gitarrknäppare he is as he roars out his emotional texts such as Never Going Back Again, which even induces goosebumps on yours truly. After the five introductory songs invite Lindsey Buckingham so up his three-man band on stage and the concert takes off for real. It is a tight group he has assembled that despite good scoop and push constantly lets focus be on frontman and his peculiar yet incredible guitar playing together with a rock soul that really gives it all. We are treated to songs from throughout his career but is primarily the songs from his latest album, Seeds We Sow as the basis for the show and they can absolutely to stand on its own. They are nevertheless not without shining up a little extra when Fleetwood Mac songs show up, for example, Second Hand News and Tusk.

Towards the end of the concert rounds off one neat and easy with the song Seeds We Sow from the latest album which is a very nice song and a spectacular ending to a magnificent concert without being too audience ratings summarizes Lindsey Buckingham's career successfully.

The picture quality is good and I really like the lighting on the show that never get like that annoying as some live shows tend to be when they are recorded. The colors are clear and crisp, yet warm and restrained. Close-ups are no problem and stage pictures are filmed from a good and simple angles, which is appreciated when you do not complicate it, but lets the music and the show itself at the center. The only negative on the picture is that it is not very sharp when the camera is too far from the scene.

The sound is nicely upscaled in DTS Master Audio and sound right through the entire show cleanly. How to get good sound you rarely to the live album and what I think is most powerful is how flashy Lindsey acoustic guitar sounds from the speakers. Good sound engineers together with a pure guitarist doing enough in his question.

Additional material consists of an open-hearted interview with Lindsey Buckingham, where he tells all about the new album and give us ideas about the songs on it. We are also told about Fleetwood Mac's origins and how he sees the difference of working in a group and as a solo artist. The expression Songs From the Small Machine is coming from because he believes his solo career as The Small Machine while Fleetwood Mac, The Big Machine.

I can highly recommend Songs From the Small Machine to rock fans in general, and Fleetwood Mac / Lindsey Buckingham fans in particular. A brilliant songwriter and guitarist in a very complete concert to be experienced.

Total: 3.8 / 5

Lindsey Buckingham: Songs From the Small Machine available from Megastore.se and costs which 215kr.

:mad: I don't know why this pushes my buttons, but it does. Damn it, Fleetwood Mac was LONG over being a blues band by the time BOB WELCH joined, much less Lindsey Buckingham. AND, even when they WERE a "blues band", they were FAR from being "Underground", they were outselling the Beatles & Stones COMBINED at the time.

I wish the liberal media would stop perpetuating this myth! :mad::mad::mad::mad:

I ordered mine like a month ago via Amazon and received it on Tuesday. Too bad the CD version is 3 songs short of the DVD, but oh well. It's nice that the track listing is the exact same one as he's still doing now. It's almost like having a souvenir of the Napa show, but I still think his voice was better and stronger than it is on the DVD.
