And then it just got to the point where someone just didn't want to work with me anymore, and other people were perhaps not feeling empowered enough to stand up for me when possibly they should have or could have.” ![]() He continues: “Anyway, that sort of led to other things that kind of built up around that. You know, I had been in the band for 43 years for god's sake. But you know, we've all made time for each other's things. ![]() He continues: “And when Christine and I were done touring as a duet – which we did after we made that album a few years ago – what I asked of the band, because they were planning an FM tour pretty much right after that, was, ‘We did this great project with Christine, I have this other album that I'm really proud of, it's a pop album, and I'd love if you could give me an extra three months to just put it out and do some American dates before FM goes out.’ And there was certainly one person who did not want to bestow that on me.”įollowing his comments, host Marc Maron asks Buckingham if singer Stevie Nicks was who he is referring to, to which he replies: “Yes, I mean to be fair, everyone was anxious to get on the road. “The tone actually began with the solo album that is about to be released, the brand-new one, which has been waiting to come out for three years now – more actually.”īuckingham is, of course, referring to his forthcoming self-titled solo album which is scheduled to drop September 17 via Reprise. The finished project, entitled Lindsey Buckingham/Christine McVie was issued in June 2017.“He's not blaming me, he's just saying you know, ‘That was your art album, we want to do something a little broader now.’ And I said okay, but I realized at that point that I wasn't going to be able to continue to sort of aspire to be the artist unless I started making solo albums. ![]() When Nicks decided to tour her own material in 2016 rather than reconvene in the studio, McVie, Buckingham, Fleetwood, and John McVie went back in to finish the record they'd begun. The quartet cut eight songs before breaking off to rehearse for the band's upcoming On with the Show tour, which began that fall (2014) and lasted an entire year. They re-engaged in the recording process with John McVie and Mick Fleetwood for a new Fleetwood Mac studio album. After returning to England, an inspired McVie began sending Buckingham demos and song snippets. In 2013 Lindsey and Christine McVie assembled at Village Recorder's Studio D in Los Angeles (the same room where Tusk was cut) in order to re-establish creative chemistry. Buckingham left the band after its 1987 album, Tango in the Night, to concentrate on his solo recordings. ![]() Not only did he provide the group with some brilliant, surprisingly dark pop songs, he sharpened the other members' songs with his production, arrangements, and breathtaking guitar playing. After Buckingham joined, the band's pop tendencies flowered under his direction. Mick Fleetwood invited the duo to join his band in late 1974. Before he joined Fleetwood Mac, Lindsey Buckingham was sketching out his brand of Brian Wilson-influenced pop with Stevie Nicks in the folky duo Buckingham Nicks.
