Thanks for your Linsdey comments!

I recently heard from an old friend that I worked with in the early 80’s. He was and remains a big fan of Stevie Nicks and we had a discussion about who needed who more to be a viable artist.

Chart hits would indicate that Lindsey needed Stevie more, but mentally, I think she needed him more. She always needed a strong producer to reign her in and Lindsey was always her best producer.

Agree about the underrated-ness of LB and love his early roots with the Kingston Trio.

The first time I could see Buckingham's playing "up close" was on The Dance DVD. I noticed he had an unusual hollow-body guitar that looked something like an overgrown ukulele, and he played with a finger-picking style like an old folkie. He even played banjo on a song or two.

I like "Spinnin' of the World," but didn't know the connection of LB (neat contraction!) with the late John Stewart.

I first saw John Stewart right after he joined the Kingstons, in Detroit at one of the first live concerts they did with John replacing Dave Guard. Fast forward to the reunion concert DVD. (That's really fast moving, from 1960.) I own the Reunion DVD and the best part for me are all the selections that include John.

Thank you for your information. Like FR for such a variety of subjects.
