Why aren't there any leaked Lindsey demo tapes?

[sanders8323]

"Blue Turns to Grey," "Gotta Get Away," "Deep Dense," "Given Thing" and "The Singer Not the Song," are the only tracks left that have not made it onto an official studio album. "My Little Demon" in a way did since it was on The Dance, although that's a live version of the song. I honestly believe that "Steve's Riff (Wear You Down)" was made into what we know now as "Sleeping Around the Corner." The beat sounds very similar even though the chorus is completely different. And who knows, there are probably other tracks from that era that are still lying around that we haven't even heard.

yeah it's a very different song. Steve's Riff is still out there.

Gotta Get Away and The Singer Not the song are finished and mixed, just not mastered.... the other songs you list are really demos.

also, people from LB's "guitar army" band in early 90s have posted pics of all of them in HI (or somewhere like that?) and said Lindsey took that whole band there for a period of time and they recorded bunch of tracks which were supposed to be his next solo album. and that none of these tracks ever showed up anywhere.

Do you know if Lindsey's ever commented on these HI songs in a Q & A?

i don't. you mean at m&gs or is there some q&a here or some other place on the internet you can link me to?

the only time i heard of these songs was from his guitar army band members on fb... i think maybe 2 or 3 of them commented on it, there were some pics of all of them on the beach, snorkeling, etc.

Yes, I was thinking about those meet and greets and wondered if the subject came up.

There's lots of unheard music out there. Michele

"The Singer Not the Song", "Blue Turns to Grey" and "Gotta Get Away" are all Rolling Stones covers, not original Buckingham compositions. I have watched a YouTube video of Lindsey performing "Deep Dense" live, which I think was taken from the same solo concert at which he performed "Steal Your Heart Away" live. The live SYHA took my breath away; I'm nonplussed as to why Lindsey would miss an opportunity to perform SYHA live with Christine back. Her vocals could be made more prominent in a live performance than they are on the Say You Will record and would sound great.

Deep Dense is quite good but not Lindsey's best work. I will search on YouTube for the other songs you've listed.

Oops I might have it confused with another song! Did he do Down on Rodeo live?
