Fleetwood Mac - Tusk documentary - Lindsey Buckingham 1979

[sara31tx]

Last I heard being Gay means you like Men is a sexual way....who gives a rats ass how he dresses!

[NicksandSlick]

Stupid comments about him being gay, or not. How would any of you really know? I know quite a few gay guys that have been married to women for years. Not evryone wants to live their lives categorised labelled and filed away. Some people are really so simple in the true sense of the word.

I loved the mid-seventies look he had but the Tusk era Lindsey is the sexiest. That is from a gay guy who thinks that Stevie is hotter than Lindsey.

The post-er before was right about his cute ears.

[cindycavylover123]

Lindsey only wore these clothes because his-then girlfriend, Carol Ann Harris, dressed him in them. At the time he was also working on his first solo album, and Carol Ann encouraged him to change his image to be more like the 'new wave' look that they were both into and the sound he was going for in many of these songs off the Tusk album, and his first solo album-Law and Order. Read the book, by Carol Ann Harris, "Storms: my life with Lindsey buckingham and Fleetwood Mac".

[delusiacandy]

I'm glad LB doesn't seem to give a FUCK if you think he's gay... He'll wear the tight shirt and sport the bulge, it seems, if it suits him that day.

[LovelyLady6346]

He has never been gay,,OMG..how shit gets started..I lived in those times and he always had a woman Yes Stevie and him are stll connected as best friend's!!!

[mimickick]

Lindsey is my favorite member of Fleetwood Mac... I had no idea so many people thought he was gay! Isn't the whole romantic partnership aspect of Fleetwood Mac the most famous thing about them!? Did people think Rumours was about Lindsey's feelings for John or Mick!? Gay love triangles!?

[613leaderclint]

by the way, at 2:20 or so it sounds like the intro to Go Your Own Way. Sounds nice.

[613leaderclint]

sorry, what meant was 2:05

[613leaderclint]

The guy should have been a huge solo star on his own. Listen to him. Look at him. He is beautiful to look at and amazing to listen to. I think as time goes on he is going to be recognized as a very underrated talent in the history of the pop music scene.

[lalalives]

@613leaderclint

THANK YOU. LB is a phenomenal, other-worldly talent. To me, he is the star and the major draw for my interest in Buckingham-Nicks era Fleetwood Mac. He's incomparable. I really, really laugh in the face of people who think he's in any way inferior to Stevie Nicks. Laugh. In the face. Loudly.

[Carrots43]

Lindsey is not gay, have you seen the babe he's married to now, sorry Stevie but his wife is better looking.

[bonsgirl]

His speaking voice just does not do him justice....

[lalalives]

LB was the most gorgeous member in Fleetwood Mac. He has Stevie beat, sorry. He had the most stunning eyes and hair and was sort of underfed in a way that model agencies would be scrambling for him. But what really makes him amazing was his skills and talent. He is VASTLY underrated and people will soon realize just how so, as they are starting to see beyond just the popular hits and understanding what he did to create the classic sound we have come to identify FM with.

[LoveDubDub]

One of the best musics out there

[ninababy8]

Sexual preference is so irrelevant ! He is sex personified to either sex. Beautiful beautiful man ....unmistakable....Also a treasured and iconic talent. Great Vid! Thanks!

[AndyRiot]

God damn that man is beautiful.

[TheWd3829]

What The Hell! the man is happily married now and has 3 kids, if anyone thinks he's gay, he clearly doesn't have any history of it; take for instance that he had relationship with the Great Stevie Nicks for a few years, and since that, the other relationships he had till when he was married have all been women...

[stevepaxify]

@soljaguy365

Please spare us the fantasy you loon

What you think is the way things work is false,

[SouljaGuy365]

@stevepaxify

Haha, loon? Well maybe, but no need to get testy, what are you scared? Yeah, you seem the type for sure, so get out of here with all this hatred and focus on something more than blowing hot air for once, okay. Have a nice day ;)

[SouljaGuy365]

Something to consider with his looks/personality is that he is a Libra,ruled by the planet Venus,this brings striking looks-a feminine quality really, long eye lashes and a Grecian nose all of which he has,not to mention the soft voice. He was born during the 1st decan of the sign, ruled by Venus, and his Moon is in Aquarius,ruled by Uranus,and this adds to his brilliance and quirkiness seen in Aquarius,but the last decan ruled by Venus,so double Venus influence. Just some food for thought. ;-)

[xlerosx]

@SouljaGuy365

I do not believe in any of that Crap.

But you just described me.

And I am born on September 26th.

:)



[riverlioness]

Lindsey Buckingham is listed as a genius with epilepsy.

[nwlman]

Just because he is a pretty man, doesnt mean he is gay, you can be gay and butch as hell, and straight and pretty like lIndsey.

[nwlman]

Tusk is one big boring album,  I like Lindsey and Fleetwoodmac, the first album, Rumours and Mirage all great and Lindseys song Trouble fab, but this album, I remember when it came out it was a real let down.

[bellinghammond]

@nwlman

There's a few good ones..."I walk a thin Line", so psychedelic country pretty and haunting, "I know I'm not wrong" is country rock veering into cow punk..but then I always like Lindsey's songs the best...

[garfreeek]

@nwlman not all of it right? at least not the one with a complete african tribe singing in it xD

maybe you could cut it up so you can like it? 

[MichaelHansenFUN]

didnt he record in his home?

[servant1973]

man this is a beautiful gem of a song the harmony's are out of this world does anyone have it where its just the song but not live

oh and hes not a homo he is married and has kids and has been in lov with stevie for 45 years

[servant1973]

man this is a beautiful gem of a song the harmony's are out of this world does anyone have it where its just the song but not live

[TwixInTheMouth88]

The People Who Think Lindsey Is Gay Only Wish he Was so They Could Have Dibs On Him.

[Villeneuve27]

hes NOT gay, you guys are fucking assholes

[dannlynch]

@Villeneuve27 I'm not sure why you seem so offended. Gay is not an insult you know. he either is or he isn't/no big deal.

[Villeneuve27]

@dannlynch cause hes not gay, shit he was fucking Stevie Nicks a couple years before this...its just idiotic to say hes gay.

[dannlynch]

@Villeneuve27 who cares is my point. sexuality is not black and white. lots of guys have sex with both men and women. we're all such children around the subject of sexuality. labels are bullshit.

[teamcrumb]

@dannlynch he isn't. been fucking women all his life. a lot of those years were coked up. you really think if he'd wanted to suck on a titanic amount of cocks he'd have hidden it while coked up and essentially ruling the world by being in the world's biggest band at the time, then you sir, are naive. If he was gay he'd have been sucking in your face! no shame no gain!. Now let me get back to my drooling x

[Lovethemseventies]

It's nice to see Tusk getting so much praise these days. I think some of the other band members, along with the record company were purely thinking of the money. Lindsey stood his ground though and I'm glad he did. He has three kids Will, LeeLee and Stella who are 12,10 and 6 and all very beautiful just like him.

[dvg548]

Where does it go from there in life after a break of touch and or distance of which cannot be controlled. Can you put your heart on a sleave better than that?

[TheKanaraja]

Came back to see this little Documentary clip. This a fantastic song (one I still play today) and I do like the peek we get to see in the recording studio with McVie. What a Bass player!! Love his driving lines on "Dreams". Thanks for posting this...

[cigarmikey]

if he WAS gay who gives a shit the dude rocks and is a chick magnet... heck even still!

I wish I had it like that..... i kinda do though...lol

[ffscantfindausername]

@cigarmikey he is a married man with two kids.....

[iluvlindsey4eva]

thats enough!!! lindsey is NOT gay or bi & all u ignorant jerks r REALLY pissing me off!!!!! he & stevie were like soulmates & now he is married w/ children & VERY HAPPY!!! just cuz someone is sensitive & talented u all have 2 turn on him--not theres anything wrong w/ being gay--but get yr facts straight before u start making false stupid comments!!! as my mother used 2 say if u dont have anything nice or constructive 2 say keep yr damn mouth shut!!!!!

[Ovalcat00]

I saw Fleetwood Mac last year when I was 22. I know he is ridiculously older than me, but he was still SO BEAUTIFUL!

[MrsCindyLeonidas]

All the gay comments are pissing me off!!!

People! He was so much in love with Stevie it was unreal! He was so badly hurt and he showed it in all his songs like this he wrote.

I know the tight purple shirt looks odd.....but tight shirts was the style then!

I know he has a high voice....but that is what makes his voice so awesome!

To all the stupid people.............He IS MARRIED WITH CHILDREN!!!!

(I miss his long hair and exposed chest form the earlier days!

He's SEXY AS HELL!!!!!!

[TheSassyB]

He is so hot

[tall32guy]

@TheSassyB Correction: he WAS hot! You can now see lines and wrinkles on his face. He looks totally different! Still the same ultra-talented, cool guy he always was though. :)

[alastarter]

he and stevie were meant to be. u can still see the passion.

[prkendora]

He and Stevie were an item forever.

[prkendora]

Lindsay is married and has several daughters.

[twitterusernamebk09]

He beat practically all his girlfriends ..(allegedly!!) ,that's pretty fucking gay.

[22infection]

why r people callin him gay ?

[urguelfa]

@22infection Envy :)

[evie1942]

I have great respect for him...and even envy...and please stop this unproven wash about homosexuality.Or name the sources.

[XxLeahwxX]

He is gorgeous!

[redvocate]

Is that Todd Rundgren at the mixing desk at 2:18?

[owennnnnnnnnn]

@redvocate, it's ken caillat, father of colby.

[publicanimal9]

What a weird cunt! Ted Bundy anyone? lol

[GraceMcVie]

ok he is not gay look at how he touches Stevie in any video or his wife he likes women lol But he is hot no matter what ya like:)

[alastarter]

fleetwood mac rocks. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx­xxxxxxx

[hammertoejoe]

Wow... this one's the video that made me fell in love with Lindsey, I remember I saw it in a tv special featuring the single hit "Sara" late 1979. I was just a teenage child and that night I dreamt that I woke up being Lindsey, dressed with that shirtless sweater, tight pants and beautiful bare feet, I felt so erotisized with myself that I had my very first wet dream - damn that was a sweet experience

[Bubadawg123]

Who cares if he LOOKED like he was gay. Alot of people dressed like that back in the day. He's an amazing songwriter and preformer. The Best

[AppleCorp3]

@Bubadawg123 IT was the 80s...everyone was gay in the 80s. They got over it in the 90s.

[neorich59]

@Bubadawg123:

Quite the man is a genius, his sexuality is an irrelevance.

I think he is totally str8.

Being a gay guy who's been around a bit can testify that there are guys out there in their millions who don't "look," or "sound," gay.

Good grief, are we still hung up on this nonsense?

Anybody who still equates campness, or "feminity," in men with gayness really needs to get out more and realize that they're walking past non obvious gay men everyday of their blinkered lives!

[NicksandSlick]

What a bunch of stupid posts about Lindsey being gay.Just because he is talented ,clever, snappy dresser, hotttt lookin and once went out with Stevie Nicks does not mean that he is gay!!!!

Personally i think he has cute ears...

[avalonw7]

Oh this was grand simply grand!! and love the song as well throughout the interview.. hes a mans man and a womans dream.. no gay bi stuff who ever said that nonscense but i think he is poly- amores.. and if that is true Love me too Lindsey. theres always room for you in my heart... he is such a dream boat to me.. smart, good looking, very talented..Love love love this interview!! ty for post

Ava

[36midnight]

Very interesting documentary!

[pulitzerisacat]

Gentlemen-I commend you...since it's inception, the Tusk work of art has always stayed with me as one of the finest in my lifetime...in my opinion, the album is a masterpiece.

[clonesharpshooter101]

john mcvie, one of the most admirable bassist ever

[mortgagestar1]

He's VERY straight! He & Stevie had a long relationship. He's private about his life as more people should be also.

[lilfubz]

he's not gay ! he was with stevie nicks and he's married with kids . everyone back then looked kinda gay anyway haha

[Boxer73]

@lilfubz thats right ...and I dont know why...

[Boobear72]

lindsey spunk! such a heartthrob fantastic musician

[gaae2000]

he is just a Metrosexual...back then.

[bearmare]

I think that the mic Lindsey's using is one of those Neumann mics that Hitler made popular.

[Idlevice]

@bearmare They've been celebrated staples of high-end studios for decades as well. They're popular because they sound great.

[TheKingOfSkiffle]

Mind your own bidness, my grandfather used to say.  Of course, he didn't want anyone minding his bidness because he was about ninety and a hopeless junkie, so you can see why he wanted people out of his bidness. I wouldn't have poked in his bidness myself if he wasn't always nodding off at the dinner table, which kind of made it everyone's bidness. It's no wonder he had to retire from bidness.

Love,

K of S

[TheKingOfSkiffle]

What bidness is it of anyone's if Lindsey Buckingham is a homo? What bidness is it of anyone's if he has sex with goats, as long as they're both consenting adults? I purchase a service from artists, be it music, acting, whatever. Why is their sex life any more my bidness than mine is their bidness or yours is my bidness or mine is your bidness, or my car mechanic's bidness is my bidness or your bidness? Why the obsession with the private bidness of public people?

[TheLasiocarpa]

He is so fine!

[katiexoxox]

i agree with the last comment woooh. dam. ..except i like the hairier lindsey even better haha

[sara31tx]

If there was a God I would be married to Lindsey Buckingham...lol..dang that man is Hott...love him

[tinquerbutt]

is Lindsey bi?

[henrysinaga]

Actually yes, but he's more into women

[ceopirates]

no way, he isnt - he cant be!!!!  hes a full 100% man! or he better be! theres no way he is bi. please say hes not!!!!!

[henrysinaga]

Being a Homosexual or a Bisexual doesn't make you less of a man.

[ceopirates]

ik, but what i ment was liking women, and i just have had the biggest crush on him, and to know that hes bi kind of burst my bubble.

[publicanimal9]

@henrysinaga What about a serial killer?

[Tacomadome24]

@henrysinaga Less of a person no; less of a man that's personal opinion.

[neelantra]

@henrysinaga Of course it does, gees.

[xlerosx]

@henrysinaga

[tall32guy]

@henrysinaga Where did *that* come up from?

[BaronVonBielski]

He is married with 2 kids... he is not gay. He kids are young too.

[ceopirates]

exactly.

[Piratejenny25]

he's not I've never heard anything about Lindsey being gay, or bi just probably in some gay men's fantasy lol

[ceopirates]

thats a negative.

[charliechutney]

I knew you couldn't resist one last comment.

[Boxer73]

@charliechutney Now thats entertainment...thank you both...

[charliechutney]

Thank you very much for an extremely funny last few days. You've made me laugh, honestly. But I think you're right, this can't go on forever and I've only so many ribs left to tickle. Anyway, can't stop, got a date with Floella Benjamin.

[charliechutney]

But I do worry what black men wear, for I too wish to walk around in pink shell suit with my oversized cap turned to the side. And hang a HUGE medallion round my neck, while wearing the latest MEGALITH Nike trainers with laces undone. I'd look street and cul-de-sac. Just like Jay Zed & 50 Percent.

Oh & I DO measure up just fine, thanks. I was at the tailors the other day, being measured up for my new suit and the man with the long thing in his hand said I looked jolly spiffing. So there!

[garyeberly916]

God he sounds like a putz

[charliechutney]

Oh boy! I never actually responded to one of your posts, yet you're back within an hour, responding to mine. This is freaking me out. Black women now officially scare me!

Btw, do most African black men wear jam-jar glasses and pink shell-suits?

[charliechutney]

Three responses - all exactly the same! Are you mental??? No wonder I turned down that date with Beyonce.

[charliechutney]

Sort of in agreement with you. I'm a white guy who rarely comes across an attractive black woman. There's something not quite right about them. They freak me out.

[dss61787]

lindsey was soooo hot here

[GoldDustDrummer]

you got that right! lol wow

[UberSciFiNerd]

John is a genius!

[lakelandchief]

No matter how many times I saw this video when he puts the microphone down I find it funny how they seem to jump lol.

[whereartesteban]

Hahahahahhaha

[wild1heart]

he is a Libra  very sensitive

[shibsisatthedisco]

wow he was beautiful!

[newenglander1]

yeah he was..

[ceopirates]

oh yea! and still is..

[MercyOnMe99]

It's a shame he cut those beautiful curls off.

[LittleWing1985]

i agree.

[cnqnmei]

His girlish mannerism is so funny. Reminds me of the guy who I think worked with the Buckingham Nicks at one time or something. He said "..... Stevie was really pretty but the other one (Buckingham) was beautiful." LOL!

[lalalives]

That is so funny that someone would say that because I was going to say this awhile ago: as famous as Stevie was for being pretty, I've always thought Lindsey was more beautiful-looking. His eyelashes were inches long and his hair was better looking than most put together women. And the eyes?

[cnqnmei]

Yeah, I know about those eyes! You can read him like a book looking at those. Have you seen his eyes in the Seven Wonders video?

[petitetiote]

He was so young...i have the impression that life passed me by...

[IzakMiro]

LOOOOVED this, anything of the Tusk doc I can find is brilliant! Thank you much for posting this! I hope I can see the full thing documentary one day, it would be a dream come true, Tusk is one of my favorite albums of all time.

[kyegirl2001]

What a great song. Never been that attracted to Lindsay myself (get the feeling he's a haaaard man to live with), but what a talent! I could listen to that song all day...

[teamcrumb]

My darling Mac, I love you all. Best band/serendipitious creative gathering ever. What a blinding clip, this is the greatest footage I have found so far to perv over Lindsey. No disrespect intended. He's just sooooooooo

beautiful.

[turnernathaniel1]

fucking amazing @3:00 he exudes pure talent and the true energy of a musician

[amsterdammara]

this man is hot.!! hot/very much talented!! very sexy combo..he is still hot ..how old is he right now.??? can anyone tell me that.???..

[RUTGERMORTENSEN]

yeah he's 59! born oct 3 1949

[teamcrumb]

he's hot o' clock.

[teargirl23]

You are so beautiful Lindsey

[tall32guy]

Lindsey was so cute and hot back then! Now you can definitely tell his age!!!

[lalalives]

I mean, he's almost 60...how the hell could anyone NOT tell someone's age once they're over that hill? That being said, he looks extremely good for his age and, honestly, he's still hot. Lindsey's blessed because he's got pure talent, knows how to express it, and is a naturally handsome, well-preserved man. Whatever excess he may have partaken in back then was probably curtailed enough that his looks/voice didn't suffer much. Great video!!!

[berberwhore]

He's aged well because he has really good bone structure.

[originalpckelly]

Seriously, it looks like he was going through a gay phase here, and I like it. :-)

[83056]

I have to agree, his mannerisms are a bit ....shall we say...girly.  :)

[Dunford00]

any guy who stands with one hand on his hip and one on his shoulder like that, wearing a purple v neck and flip flops? i dont know, to me, its a lil much!

[alaryn]

C'mon, he's being a sensitive, artistic ~creative~

Baring your soul like that isn't the most stereotypically masculine activity... ;)

[Dunford00]

yah i understand that, he must be bi at least tho.. lol

i love him tho, awesome songwriter and performer!!

[alaryn]

Hahaha, Stevie was his beard ;) She was stealing all his guys and that's why they "broke up"

BEST TABLOID IDEA EVER

Nah, I love Prince as well, and unless he's trying very hard to cover it, he's straight, too.  And also an awesome guitarist.

Though you never know what happens on the road that they don't talk about! :)

[jache77]

I AGREE! LOVE U!

[jache77]

you are sooooooooooooo right!

[teenloveCC]

I love his hair like that. I also loved the fro. Lindsey is a rock star on stage and off he's a total nerd. I love it!

[moonflower0924]

his looks fragile but he's not gay

and he was hott!

[moonflower0924]

altho he had issues. lol

[jache77]

i agree with you!

[HabibTh]

I've always wondered if Mick or John sang backup on this song, does anyone know? Or is it all Lindsey?

[jtnlvnow]

DOES ANYONE HAVE THIS FULL DOCUMENTARY? This was my favorite fleetwood mac doc. Haven't seen it entire since I was out of HS. Let me know please!!!!

[maliciouskami]

fuckin shit this is the sexiest ive seen him

[cnqnmei]

Yeah, it is so freaking good! Thanks for the video.

[lakelandchief]

That would be great if there was something if someone has when they where in the studio doing other songs like go your own way or the chain. If someone has something like that please post it thanks.

[lakelandchief]

I guess I meant through the whole thing I posted my comet before the end of the video.

[flamingcrystal]

It's "save me a place".

[lakelandchief]

What is the name of the song he sings at the beginning?

[MUSICTOMUSIC]

thanx for posting

[Debra3]

Thanks so much for this video.

[supalocalono]

For me,a italian fan,this tusk moment is the best musically and artistically.Thanks

[GrissFan]

Wow - thanx for posting this. Lindsey is just pure talent, like others have said his voice is amazing. I also think that he was looking his hottest during this period!!!

[DayTripperGirl64]

Lindsey is sooooooooo sexy! I love his voice.

[DangerousBastard]

Exactly, its so freakin good, what can one say? lol

[lbap94]

he's singing my second fav song

[182boomer]

he's a heart throb aint he!

[flamingcrystal]

Why is nobody commenting on this????

Because it's so freaking good????

HAHAHA
