LINDSEY BUCKINGHAM AUDIO INTERVIEW - 09.09.09 - NEW ZEALAND
[First of all, these time zones are going to kill me!... I almost forgot to listen live to this interview this morning, or afternoon... Actually, I was listening today (Tuesday the 8th), but it was already the morning of the 9th in New Zealand - hense the title of the post]
Tim from Easy Mix 98.2 in New Zealand interviewed Lindsey Buckingham this morning (09.09.09)
Lindsey spoke about why he's never been happier, what his wife thinks of his on stage chemistry with Stevie Nicks, what he considers to be his best achievement in regards to producing Stevie and Christine's songs, how he surprised Michael Jackson in a toilet in 1985 while recording "We Are The World", and his connection with Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys.
He also spoke about how the band really wants to keep this going and not take such long breaks between projects... Another album of new material is still being talked about, along with bringing in a new producer to work with the band - which was nice to hear. Sadly he never mentioned, nor was he asked, about the Rumours CD/DVD that was reported to be coming out this year to coincide with the Unleashed Tour.
You can stream both parts of his interview this morning at the Easy Mix website, or you can download it here if you're like me and you like to keep this stuff.
Interview length about 16 minutes.
Also, in early October Tim will interview Mick Fleetwood - the man who's drumming has provided the beat for every Fleetwood Mac song from Albatross to Say You Love Me, Go Your Own Way to Little Lies, Dreams to Tusk, Gypsy to Sara.

Fleetwood Mac have added a second concert to their visit to New Plymouth in December after the first one sold out in minutes.
Having played a 55-date, sold-out tour in North America, the band had committed to a single New Zealand show on December 19 at the Bowl of Brooklands.
Promoter Andrew McManus Presents said demand for tickets at the 18,000 seat venue was overwhelming and the second show had been scheduled for the following night.
SPECULATION ON A 2ND FLEETWOOD MAC NZ DATE
Speculation a Second New Plymouth
show might be added
Tickets for Fleetwood Mac go on sale today but if you do not have a credit card you are out of luck.
Tickets for the one-off New Zealand show, to be held on December 19 at New Plymouth's TSB Bowl of Brooklands, will only be available online and over the phone.
Payment can only be made by credit card through Ticketmaster's website www.ticketmaster.co.nz or its freephone number 0800 111 999. Fleetwood fans can pay by cash or eftpos at a Ticketmaster outlet, but Taranaki's closest is in Palmerston North.
Pre-sale tickets for the concert went on sale last Friday and have sold out.
New Plymouth District Council's manager of business development and events Garry Sharpe-Young said it was the show's promoter who decided to have ticket sales through Ticketmaster despite it not having an outlet in New Plymouth.
"We need to get the message out that tickets will not be at the TSB Showplace box office," Mr Sharpe-Young said. "They are all being sold online or on the freephone."
People would turn up at the TSB Showplace because that was where they traditionally bought them, he said.
Tickets go on sale at 9am and are $120 for general admission, $250 for silver and $320 for gold.
The New Plymouth show is the group's only New Zealand concert and is expected to sell out in minutes today.
There is speculation a second New Plymouth show might be added.
In recent months other big international acts including Foo Fighters, AC/DC and the Red Hot Chili Peppers have all announced second shows after huge demand.
The New Plymouth show is the last of a world tour by Fleetwood Mac. The group has performed in the United States and is touring Europe, with all the United Kingdom shows selling out.
MICK FLEETWOOD (Fleetwood Mac) BLUE AGAIN (CD REVIEW)
CD Review for Blue Again - by J. BlakeAmerican Blues Blog
In 2008, in the midst of Fleetwood Mac’s 40th anniversary, drummer Mick Fleetwood decided that it was time to revisit the blues years and took to the road with formidable blues line-up, fronted by onetime Fleetwood Mac guitarist/singer Rick Vito and accompanied by bassist Lenny Castellanos & keyboardist Mark Johnstone. The mostly live album BLUE AGAIN was recorded in February of 2008 at the Sheldon Concert Hall in St. Lois, MO and features an even blend of Peter Green classics and bluesy Rick Vito originals; with a blistering encore of Elmore James’ Shake Your Moneymaker. In the CD’s liner notes Fleetwood explains, “Over my career I've been called a pop star and a rock star, yet in my inner heart, I will always be part bluesman. On my journey from blues to a life of rock n roll, I've always remembered where I started.”
Also, the word on the street is that a companion DVD of this 2008 performance will be released this fall.
MUST HAVE MUSIC - FLEETWOOD MAC "RUMOURS"
Drive with David Iliffe
What's the pride and joy in your music collection? Could it be Fleetwood Mac's 1977 release, "Rumours"?
The album was one of the highest sellers in the world. In fact, it had 31 weeks at number 1 on the US Billboard charts.
The band has just announced that they are touring Australia in December, so I thought it was fitting to pull out this album for the first in our series of "Must Have Music".
Every fortnight, our music man on Drive Col Clifford will join me for a yarn about what albums should appear in every good music fan's record collection. Listen to why this one should be included below.
