Or I could have imagined that whole scenario. I can't remember where I've heard most of the things I have stored in my memory lol.

Could this be what you're both remembering? This is from a 1987 article in Creem magazine, though, while they were promoting 'Tango.' Not after Lindsey's departure. (The full article can be found in the Blue Letter Archives.)

Lindsey says he’d also like to work with Laurie Anderson, and mentions that Stevie was recently asking him on the phone if he’d like to do another Buckingham/Nicks album.

His voice becomes more pensive than usual, which is getting pretty pensive. "You just don’t usually have to do that sort of thing-to break up with someone and then see them for the next 12 years. That’s just not normal…it’s not even very well. It’s sort of an ill thing to have to do, but what the hell."
