You get to be a certain age -...

You get to be a certain age - I am 58 - and it becomes tricky not to become a caricature of yourself.

Lindsey Buckingham 53 quotes

You're not going to reinvent ...

You're not going to reinvent the wheel every time you go out, because that would disappoint the audience.

Lindsey Buckingham 53 quotes

It's always been based around...

It's always been based around the song, and guitar-playing in the service of the song... The sensibility is about songs. I like to think of it as kind of 'refined primitive.'

Lindsey Buckingham 53 quotes

You come off the kind of comm...

You come off the kind of commercial success that 'Rumours' had, and you see that there are limitations to that as well as freedoms.

Lindsey Buckingham 53 quotes

I do think my lyrics have got...

I do think my lyrics have gotten... not necessarily more poetic, but more open to interpretation; they're less literal.

Lindsey Buckingham 53 quotes

Certainly, whatever I learn w...

Certainly, whatever I learn while I'm out solo, I bring back to Fleetwood Mac.

Lindsey Buckingham 53 quotes

Creating a set list is like m...

Creating a set list is like making a running order for an album. Certain things get pitted against one another that make more sense. One song sets another one off, or it might diminish it. You're just constantly looking for the next thing that's gonna make sense in a particular place.

Back in 1985, I was working o...

Back in 1985, I was working on my third solo album when the band came to me and asked me to produce the next Fleetwood Mac project. At that point, I put aside my solo work - which was half finished - and committed myself for the next seventeen months to producing 'Tango in the Night.'

Lindsey Buckingham 53 quotes

I don't really think of mysel...

I don't really think of myself so much as a writer as a stylist, someone who came into writing from the back door and has found it through a certain very specific and personal means.

Arcade Fire seems to be doing...

Arcade Fire seems to be doing very well; certainly, Phoenix is doing very well.

Lindsey Buckingham 53 quotes

The most disappointing thing ...

The most disappointing thing to me after 'Tusk' was the politics in the band. They said, 'We're not going to do that again.' I felt dead in the water from that. On 'Mirage,' I was treading water, saying, 'Okay, whatever,' and taking a passive role.

Lindsey Buckingham 53 quotes

The thought of being on my ow...

The thought of being on my own really terrified me. But then I realized being alone is really a cleansing thing.

Lindsey Buckingham 53 quotes

I don't practice per se. I le...

I don't practice per se. I learned to play on my own, taught myself how to play. I've never really had a lesson, and I don't read music. So all the stuff that I do doesn't come from the normal set of disciplines that they teach you where you sit down and run through scales for a particular number of minutes a day.

Lindsey Buckingham 53 quotes

I was lucky enough to meet so...

I was lucky enough to meet someone when I was about 46 and had my first child when I was 48, so I got started late, but I also got all that other stuff out of the way and was at a point where I could be a consistent presence at home.

Lindsey Buckingham 53 quotes

If you want to be an artist i...

If you want to be an artist in the long run, it isn't necessarily a good axiom to repeat formulas over and over until they're used up.

Lindsey Buckingham 53 quotes

After the success of 'Rumours...

After the success of 'Rumours,' we were in this zone with this certain scale of success. By that point, the success detaches from the music, and the success becomes about the success. The phenomenon becomes about the phenomenon.

Lindsey Buckingham 53 quotes

If you are gonna participate ...

If you are gonna participate in a band, you've got to be a band member in good standing, and you've got to think about the needs of the whole.

Lindsey Buckingham 53 quotes

When you make music, and even...

When you make music, and even if it's commercially successful, it doesn't mean that it's going to hold up. It takes time to sort of take stock of what you've done and whether it's got legs and whether it's going to really have a place.

Lindsey Buckingham 53 quotes

I don't read music. I've neve...

I don't read music. I've never had a lesson. I don't know anything about music other than what my inner knowledge is.

Lindsey Buckingham 53 quotes

Sometimes I wish we were the ...

Sometimes I wish we were the Eagles. That's one thing they've always been able to do is want the same thing for the same reasons.
