You found The Dance and Crystal Visions? Wow...You're spoiled lol. Ah well. The internet is the cause of and solution to all problems in that respect, so there's always an alternative lol. Or could do what I did and borrow albums from the local library and put them on your iPod. My Library hasn't quite come to terms with technology so they don't have protection against it. I do intent to buy the albums eventually (GoS and TiS-L especially), but at the moment I lack funds. I'm counting on the Bank of Mum and Dad at the moment lol.

Spoiled? The Dance & CV are two of the easiest to find!

The way to get them is amazon. they're not expensive.

Haha. Not in my neck of the woods. The usual rule of thumb in my town is "If it's not in the charts it's not rated". It's a wonder you can even find Elvis and The Beatles at my local HMV.

Yeah! Amazon is a Buddha send for music fans. I wouldn't have half of my collection if it wasn't for that lovely website.

Oh okay, I thought you were mocking me for some reason, lol. The Dance is in every store, even at the Shoppers Drug Mart down the road. And I looked at Amazon and you are so right.. everything is pretty cheap there. TISL is $8, and when I ordered it through HMV it came to $25

Honestly, I know Stevie's solo work (and enjoy it more) than Lindsey's. For a starter, I say go with Out of the Cradle. Very good album and not too strange.

Speaking of Stevie's solo work, what's your favorite album? Mine's Wild Heart

Aww! You thought that? I'm sorry *hugs* My dry British wit does tend to be mistaken as viciousness where it isn't. Even when The Dance was newly released, I never found it any of our music shops. It's really odd. Maybe they just weren't expecting huge sales figures for my area *ponder*

Wow! That is cheap compared to HMV. They do tend to be pricey though. I noticed they seemed to put their prices up a little more after that git from one of the major record companies said that music should be sold for Ł1. What a complete twonk. That was just basically saying that music is worth nothing. Are you kidding? If anything should be sold for that little, it's the TV Licenses the British have to buy. They show nothing but dreck anyway so there's no point even owning a TV in all honesty, not when the good shows are streamed online anyway.

It's okay! I was like ...sometimes I'm sensitive..but now I understand what you meant!

And yeah, it's really sad when people think music isn't worth buying. makes me super mad!! You're from Britain? I would think that they would have a lot of their music there. ..guess not, eh.

For a long time, I knew only his Mac work, and just recently did I get to know his solo, and even then I know like 2 albums.

I'm sorry I made you pull that face. I'm very sensitive too and sometimes I can read people's comments to me and get really upset about them even if they didn't mean for it too.

It does make me sad too! And yeah, I am. West Yorkshire in England, actually. I think maybe because I'm from a more rural area, thus more cut off from "culture", may have something to do with it. Though we do have some pretty great Record Fairs often which I always blow far too much money at lol. There's more of a music scene in the bigger cities, like Manchester and London really. Camden (in London) is like a Mecca for music lovers and hippies (caters for me twofold lol).

What are some of his best songs? Where should I start listening?!
To me, the best starter album for Lindsey is Out Of The Cradle. It's just a gorgeous work. Some of the songs have spoken or instrumental intro tracks beforehand... it's just a master work, in my opinion. You really can't go wrong with this album... it's so lyrically honest; lots of deep soul searching. On top of that, it's just dripping with beauty.

Lindsey's first two albums are definitely on the wacky side. Go Insane is about as far out in left field as you can go in pop music, but it's tremendous fun. It never fails to lift my mood. Law And Order is somewhat more conventional, but there is a decent mixture of quirky songs to go along with the middle of the road tracks as well.

Gift Of Screws in my opinion is another great starter album for a new Lindsey listener. It's kind of a grab bag of the best-of Lindsey's different styles he's tinkered with throughout his career. There are acoustic songs, experimental songs, pop songs, rock songs, quirky songs, traditional songs. Yet there's a commonality to all the tracks. It's like the perfect album, in my book. It's a microcosm of everything Lindsey Buckingham's ever been.

I found Under The Skin to be ceaselessly boring . All those sighing/loud whispering vocals grate my nerves, and almost none of the songs have any form of bass to them. It's definitely a concept project... it's just not to my tastes. Down On Rodeo is one of the best songs ever penned by Lindsey, I just think it's unfortunate it got lost in this very ho-hum collection.

That is actually really wierd lol. Especially considering that most of the Yorkshire people I know seem to have something against travel beyond "the big hill". Good for them. They got out while they could Seriously. I can't wait to leave. I still don't know where I'll go once I'm finished with University, but I know it'll be better than my hometown. Maybe I'll just bum around with the Californian Hippies
