There's no evidence that when Lindsey is just a guitarist on someone else's album, as he was most recently for Vanessa Carlton and Antsy McClain, that he's difficult. When he's not producing or trying to shape his own songs, I doubt he has enough investment in the project to be difficult as a guitarist
or vocalist (i.e. for Don Henley and Tom Petty). For instance, it sounds like when he came in to work with the band on
Time he was in and out. He wasn't spending hours demanding retakes or edits. It wasn't his baby and he was happy just to play and leave.
Lindsey probably has no interest in playing on Ken's outside projects. I doubt that he was Ken's for the asking. The most difficult part for Caillat would probably have been to get Lindsey to say "yes."
