OMG. These are so juicy. I cant get enough. So much information. Usually we get the same questions and answers from the Mac about the breaking up stories told to death.

Who was the band member who's lawyer brought the first producer? Irving? Lindsey was supposed to come in and do his 4 songs and leave. After several days they figured it was not going to work and Lindsey took over.

Lindsey says Big Love and Family Man are the songs from his solo album that was in the works. Lindsey also says its Stevie on Family Man. Wow!!!!!

You can tell Lindsey is not that happy. He does not commit to touring and says if it does happen it should not happen until the next year (1988).

Both Chris and Lindey both sort of bash Mirage for being what the audience wanted. However Lindsey describes Tango as a radio album with lots of singles. What's the difference? IMHO Mirage is a much superior album.

Lindsey was right about a few things in the future. He predicts a year after its release Tango will have a single still floating out there. He says if its the last Mac album its an album he is proud of. It would be the last album of these 5.

These interviews are so unique that they take place right before the band would change forever. Its only weeks before the big blow out at Christine's house. Once Lindsey left all the dynamics changed. So its interesting to read the tea leaves listening to these interviews.



Thanks again for posting. What a find!
