Lindsey Buckingham is one of our greatest guitarists.
Unfortunately, that sometimes is missed when he plays in a band like Fleetwood Mac or on his solo tours. That’s why it is so exciting to finally get Buckingham solo, just his guitar and his voice, on One Man Show, coming on November 13 via digital download only.
The album was recorded live, in one take, on September 1 at Hoyt Sherman Place in Des Moines, Iowa. Buckingham said “As an artist, you need to seek out what is essential and discard what is inessential, to always keep an eye on what lives at the center. That was the impetus for this performance. My center has always been voice and guitar, and as I’ve evolved, I’ve looked to broaden the range and vocabulary of that center. So when I decided to tour in 2012, it suddenly felt as though I’d been working towards something, that I’d arrived at a new place. I sensed it was time to do something I’d never done: A one man show. This performance is from a single night in Des Moines, Iowa, taken right off the console mix, with a couple of room mikes added in. It’s live and raw, with no post-production. I love it! It captures not only the spirit of the performance, but also the spirit of where I now live as an artist.”
Buckingham will also be touring during November promoting the release.
