I've only been a Lindsey fan since Nov 2011, when I saw the Small Machine tour, and I was just blown away (before that, he was 'that good guitarist from Fleetwood Mac'). Just wanted to say it's been an enjoyable ride to date discovering all his solo work for the last year and a half or so; hope you enjoy same.
BTW, I almost always prefer his live recordings to studio - don't know why he over-engineered his voice so much on SWS...on my mixes, I tended to substitute songs from Small Machine DVD or other places...

I prefer some of his live recordings to the album versions as well: "Stars" is a good example because I had heard the live version from the Small Machine first and then the album version. Now, I like both but still hold the live version in higher regard. And yeah, I also don't know why he over-engineered his voice on SWS - sometimes it sounds really good, other times it sounds weird. Is he embarrassed of his voice that he feels the need to do that or does he just want to make it sound cool? I'm just purely speculating here.

I also have yet to see Lindsey live, but since hearing most of his music I really, really want to if he goes on tour again. Seeing the Mac in June though for the first time! So excited!
