Lindsey spent years publicly running from Rumours.

Immediately followed by likes and posts by his two daughters.

The man who spent years trying to run from this album and it’s pop success,
as he wanted to build independent credibility, and Rolling Stone once called “the angriest dog in rock” has come home to its brilliance, societal significance, and its indelible mark on everything he has today.

In my opinion, he yearns that the last public incarnation of Fleetwood Mac include his name. It matters to him. The songs that shaped how so many of us hear music and would never have sounded as they did without him, define his legacy both publicly, and yes, privately. I believe he is driven to be known and documented as the last guitar player to play in Fleetwood Mac even if it is one song, one night.
In honor of groundhog day, this would be nearly the same as the first time it happened. See- Bob Welch.
