I don't know. I'm a new kid on the block.
My impression is : They (La Nicks & Mr. B) don't seem to talk to one another. Instead they talk to the press about one another. We eavesdrop through the press. |

The "agreement" was that Stevie would record with FM as long as Lindsey is not the primary producer.

Didnt read the "article" but I like the idea of another producer. I think it will lead to a more collaborative effort from the band.

It wasn't an article - it was a blog. Nothing is confirmed.

I reckon it's just cause Stevie doesn't want Lindsey stealing her thunder, however, come the 2009 tour, she'll have nowhere to hide

Let's see whose thunder is stolen then What she does instead is leave the stage and let him have his moments, which he deserves. As for LB producing her, I think he, though brilliant in other ways, mostly has lost the touch. I did not like what he did for her on SYW for the most part, save, perhaps, for GB. She, on the other hand greatly enhanced his songs, like the vocal in Miranda, which is just way cool. Many say she ruined Peacekeeper. I agree the solo version is 10 times better than the SYW one, but I cannot say for sure La Nicks is the one who changed the key, etc. But, if that is so, then, yes, she ruined it.

I personally like her there, but then I loved the way those LB songs sounded without Stevie on them. So as far as "greatly enhanced" I can't really see your point...his songs sound great with or without her.

Peacekeeper is the only song I think she sounds deadful on. The solo version is much better. In the end, I think they work better live these days. But, who knows -- they certainly have surprised many before. |

It was horrifying live. He cared little for his pitch and she looked like she wanted to watch her socks dry instead I did, however, love her vocals on Miranda and Red Rover. I thought they made his already good songs more complex. But, to each their own. Also, are you calling La Nicks a wiggler |

That production aspect aside, I thought he broke down the basic structure of two chord demo and produced a very whistful sound. And, he realized her voice could not reach the value of the one in the demo so he made it like a lullaby. I am sure she had huge imput as well in that though. |

I think it is. I think you think that is snotty of her. I think she learned a long time ago that she could steal focus without even really trying and it pissed off the other members. So, I think she learned that was not a nice thing to do and adjusted her antics accordingly. Anyone in a band knows everyone has to kind of do that to a degree and the one who stands out the most must make a conscious effort to tone it down at an inappropriate part. How can that be a bad thing? |

Below is the text from a post of mine from a month or so ago.
Lindsey to me has always been a master craftsman of songs. In his recent work I personally hear a loss of that wonderful songcraft he has such a gift for. To me it is a combination of things. Guitar playing that was too out front compared to what the song called for. (Songs on Say You Will) A degradation of his vocals that have left some songs whispered instead of sung. (Much of UTS) Use of dated vocal processing effects particulary in the choruses of songs. Engineering choices that leave songs feeling sterile and muted. Finally the songs themselves. While no doubt Lindsey has improved as a lyricist, I hear a lack of melody and a definite lack of hooks more often than not in his more recent song output. I am not convinced Lindsey has lost this gift and I think an outside co-producer to work with Lindsey and the band may be able to harness and redirect some of Lindsey's creative ideas. |
