Default Tom B w/ Ann Wilson – "The Chain" (soundcheck).

1. 24K Gold guitarist Tom Bukovich, Ann Wilson, etc. soundchecking "The Chain" from 0:40 to 6:20: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WIUAv8OeorI

2. I posted this in the Lindsey forum. Tom does an 11-minute podcast (linked below) on Lindsey Buckingham's guitar work and arranging on:

"Never Going Back Again"
"Hold Me"
"Dreams"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lBqcKQPjH_c&t=142s (through 10:54)

1. "NGBA": how hard it is to play in a way that maintains the feel and makes it swing and groove (demonstrates two parts Lindsey plays at once)

2. "Hold Me":
–Lindsey being the "master of the overdub" and creative layering
–the angelic acoustic breakdown with multiple acoustic guitars
–Lindsey turning the song into an uptempo pop song aftter Christine brought it in as a slower song*

3. "Dreams": the wisdom and creativity of what Lindsey plays on the pre-chorus (plus other things he contributes to the song)

*note: Because of his work on 24K Gold, Tom got to go to a FM show and meet Lindsey. He approached Lindsey to ask him about "Hold Me." Lindsey's handlers tried to whick him away, but Lindsey overruled them and insisted on talking with Tom. Among other things, Lindsey told Tom about how Christine brought the song in as a slow song and he rearranged it to make it a faster one.
