About Lindsey Buckingham:

For more then three decades, Lindsey Buckingham has had a reputation among millions of fans and countless fellow musicians as an honored and singular...

"Troublemaker?" he offers, with a mischievous laugh.

Well, it was going to be creative force and innovator, a mad scientist experimenter mixing passion and craft into a distinctive and affecting artistry. But troublemaker will do. "The world needs more troublemakers," Buckingham says. Troublemaker, mad scientist, whatever you see him as, Lindsey Buckingham is behind some of the most beloved and creative twists in modern popular music. And with Gift of Screws he has made the kind of trouble only he can, more than ever before bringing together the broad appeal he shown as the main force behind the sound of Fleetwood Mac since he joined the group in 1973 with the restless spirit of experimentalism he's shown both with such Mac landmarks as Rumours, Tusk and in his own visionary solo albums.

Gift of Screws is, in fact, a bracing and immediate result of 35 years of exploration and growth, made by an artist who has against the odds found new confidence and new abilities to express himself in ways at once challenging and accessible. Rarely have the full array of his talents and all aspects of his scope and sensibilities been integrated so thoroughly and winningly as on this album. In some ways it's a rocking complement to his last album, 2006's acoustic-focused Under the Skin, balancing such layered guitars-and-voice contemplations as "Time Precious Time" and "Bel Air Rain" with the seductive rush of the title song and the opener "Great Day."

In some ways it's an extension of the renewal with his Fleetwood Mac legacy - Mick Fleetwood and John McVie provide the unmistakable foundation on several songs, including the embracing "Wait for You" and the gloriously mad title song. And linking the two are insightful examinations of love and belonging in "Love Runs Deeper" and the secure-yet-shadowed closing pair "Underground" and "Treason." Showcased throughout are Buckingham's noted virtuosity as a guitarist and producer, as well as his expressiveness as both a singer and writer.

"You could certainly say this album is a distillation of a number periods of time, some false starts to make albums, certainly some songs that go back a number of years, that took a while to find a home here, combined with brand-new songs and a whole other outlook," he says. "And the fact that there was a kind of tenacity and focus to want to bring all of this together in one place. The fact that as an artist I'm still, for better or worse, clinging to my idealism and to my sense that there is still yet much to be said. This is a culmination of that."

*Offer valid only with purchase of Gift Of Screws. This special offer is valid for DOMESTIC orders only. Pre-ordered CDs shipping with promotional material are limited to (5) per customer. Booklets will be available while supplies last, newburycomics.com will post information when autographed booklets are sold out.

Thanks Macman ... I bought one and like PT Barnum said, "There's a sucker born every minute." (or something like that) so put me in the sucker category. I wonder if it really is autographed.

The photo looks like he just got done with his shift on the *chain gang*.

(If you go to the website, it's a large photo.)

I was wondering the same thing. I haven't bought one yet.

This can't be the image they want to use to get this album out.

Where's this guy:




He's got to try a little bit!

Doesn't he resemble Paul Newman in COOL HAND LUKE ? (Only Lindsey lost his necklace.)

"What we have here is a failure to communicate."

He looks like he's on death row. Geeze. Posture and some appropriate clothing. The man can afford a suit. He looks like an old drunk.

Thanks for posting this, Mac Man! I like the pic...it looks a little like a painting to me. Also, the blurriness is the theme for this album, isn't it? LOL

As for the pose..."I never change....I never will." In both of those pics...his sleeves are rolled up to the elbow. Heh.

Cool Hand Luke looked happy. Arrogant. THIS Lindsey pic looks defeated. Washed up. Done.

If he was going for the Cool Hand Luke look, he should have used this:

(Gift of Screws)



(I tried to superimpose Lindsey's head on Luke's body, but it just wasn't giving the right effect...)
