'No drums, very little bass' on Buckingham's new CD

Fleetwood Mac's Lindsey Buckingham is about to unveil his first solo CD since 1992's Out of the Cradle. He describes the stripped-down arrangements on Under the Skin, due Oct. 3, as "kind of a reduction. There are basically no drums, very little bass. On a musical level, I've been trying to distill things."

Skin also reflects a sense of contentment, he says, that owes much to his wife, Kristen, and their three children. "This is the best time in my life, and that's a great thing to be able to say when you're 56, and didn't become a father till you were 48."

He plans a "more rocking" companion CD in 2007, after a U.S. tour. "It's a turnaround, time-frame-wise, for someone who's been sort of the Terrence Malick of rock," referring to the reclusive director.

Fantastic News. It's only been 14 years since his last. I just went and listened to the two new songs. They sound great. Any tour dates or is Fleetwood Mac getting back together for the 30th anniv. of Rumours?

I like his other cds so I'll check it out.

Very glad to hear this news. :up:

I like the idea of stripping down the sound. This should be interesting.

You broke my yawn! I was about to yawn, and then I saw the thread title and couldn't believe it. I had no idea he was even working on one, let alone be able to release it. From what I gathered, "Gift Of Screws" was folded into the last Fleetwood Mac album because it was thought he couldn't sell a solo album. I'm not sure how much I'll like this one by the sounds of it, I tend to like a more balanced cd in sound, but I'll certainly pick it up upon release!

New songs sound really nice. I've always thought Lindsey is the most famous cult artist in the world.

:thumbsup:

I like all three of his solo albums even though each is different from the others. He's an artist I trust and really look forward to this. Thanks for the info.

Wow! That's unexpected. Lindsey's a genius, I am so there.

The two sample songs are not bad. It remains to be heard if this album can come close to rivaling the great "Out of the Cradle".

Looks like there is a tour as well - Pollstar has three shows so far (Nashville, Boston, Milwaukee) for October. I assume more will be on the way shortly....
