A genius at work.....
Wow!

My opinion, Lindsey's very introverted and introspective, he's never been a self-promoter. Also, one of the things I love about his talent, he's eccentric and completely unpredictable. You either get him or you don't ("you either will, or you won't") and many people expecting FM put his music on and go "WTF?", so he's not been promoted heavily by Reprise over the years, they just don't see him as a commercial artist. And it's a shame, he belongs in the Hall of Fame as a solo artist, too.

And, you know, he's never listed on these "best of" compilations. When I see those lists, Lindsey can play rings around 99% of the guitarists listed--and don't forget, he's not a shredder. Melody and counterpoint are central to his songwriting and playing. Though very different players, I put him right up there with Metheny as a Guitarist-composer.

A lot of the time Lindsey's actually doing banjo runs on the guitar, and then throwing in the eccentric time signature, he's often hitting a beat and counterbeat. Extraordinary playing that few can match--Mark Knopfler? Pat Metheny, but he usually uses a pick.

Extremely hard to play, shit ! This is absolutely incredible. Voice and guitar together is nearly impossible. Lindsey is crazy and a genious musician. I can't get enough !
