Hi, I'm Lindsey. I often edit out the fantastic harmony voices of my colleagues and replace them with my own approximations of their vocals in a Brian Wilson-styled "chorale."
Hi, I'm Lindsey. Christine and I have a magical relationship, our jams just "sparkle off" but I tend to mix down or edit out her keyboards in the studio and (since 2014) live because automated and pre-recorded textures are the bomb.

LOVE Lindsey's studio albums and admire his production touches on many songs, but there are many moments where i shake my head and ask WTF? Why weren't Stevie and Christine present vocally (or even instrumentally) on most of his Tango songs? Why did he dub all the vocals himself on "Save Me a Place" when the live version of the song featuring all three leads clearly is more distinctive and pleasing to the ears? I feel the same about Eyes of the World.
And why is Christine not present on his songs from their BuckVie collaboration? Come on! And there was an extra song (from Christine) they didn't use, a song she "had high hopes for." Why not feature it? If he was concerned about equal representation of songs, then simply place one more of his own on there. Ugh.
