How so? Lindsey's walking his own walk no matter what. He almost walked off with the masters to Say You Will when the record company was less than excited about making it a double album. He's not like other people. He does what he wants to.
My response to your point about Lou was that he's never had the commercial success of a Fleetwood Mac and therefore it's just not an apples comparison.
I wanted to say too that good for him on the Susan Boyle thing (nothing against her). It's his art, he created it and he can do what he wants with it. That's integrity.
