Lindsey once said, "Music is a means of expression that rings truer and is more connected to things inside than speech."

Music can be a voice for the soul of the player. Every decision we make is, ultimately, emotionally decided. We are, in effect, our emotions. LB's playing is, to certain ears, a direct gateway into his soul: we are hearing some of his deepest emotions, which would otherwise be left unheard if the only form of communication was words. Therefore, we are, in a way, hearing the purest form of him.

If somebody is emotionally similar or identical to Lindsey Buckingham, or have emotions that would result in the same playing if he/she was as musically able as Lindsey, it is possible for that person to connect perfectly with Lindsey's playing. That would mean that the guitar notes that you are hearing ARE "Lindsey Buckingham" and also ARE that particular listener. I am one of those listeners...LB's guitar playing speaks to me like no other's.

IF that's what David meant, then I understand what he said perfectly.
