She did give him (and of course producers) her tunes and he made them what they are. Rhiannon without the riff that made it the recognisable tune? Gold Dust Woman without Lindsey's input? I doubt they'd be much to perform. It is of my opinion (and mine only, don't jump down my throat here) that Lindsey's songs do not actually require Stevie, where as the opposite is not true (when I say that, I mean Lindsey, or someone in his role, obviously because of her solo career). I know, I know, most don't agree. But that's the opinion of this Lindsey fan.

Hi,
Yes stevie did write those songs and lindsey did produce them, very true, he adds more magic to them. but if its a matter of why ppl are coming out to the shows, as someone put it , to hear the classics, basically they are her songs. as for lindseys songs not needing stevie, well she may not play an instrument to add to his songs, but she does add the vocals, and lindsey did add her vocals to his songs. yes she does have her solo career which she has other producers and doesnt need lindsey and thats works out ok, even so i do think he produces her the best. about the ppl coming to the show, i do believe most of it is due to stevie, just because of her strong following .her fans will go to great lengths to see her. i do also believe they come because of the whole lindsey and stevie chemistry on stage and to hear and see them together and enjoying themselves and their interactions.this is not to say that lindsey doesnt have his on following of fans, i just believe that stevies is much stronger. I love lindsey and i do think he is the most under-rated guitarist-producer out there. but i will say this that any person going to see this tour will walk away with (if not already) a new appreciation for Mr. Lindsey Buckingham. I do think that from the Dance tour ,( and i loved the dance tour) compared to this tour, Lindsey is totally totally outdoing himself, he is on fire in all aspects, its like he is reborn and exploding ,In the early years even tho he was still a great guitarist, he wasnt as interactive with the audience on a personal level, like he is now. at one show i heard the guy behind me say, wow i didnt think he would be so outgoing with the audience. back then stevie was more the visual, but what she did was phyical with her stage persona and performance. i think its sad when ppl out there expect her to do today what she did back then ,they say oh stevies not twirling or screaming at the mic like she did, people dont realize she is older now, certain thingsshe did during songs back then may not look as appropriate at an older age, or people cant accept that she (but much better) ages like we age. either way im greatful they are together on stage, too bad chris isnt there, but its like a buckingham, nicks show,, now if they would only release that cd and suport it with a tour, omg that would be great!!!!
