Lindsey Buckingham to Release Live DVD March 25, 2008

“Live at the Bass Performance Hall” Captures Electric Spirit of Singer, Songwriter, and Guitarist’s First U.S. Solo Tour in 14 Years

Lindsey Buckingham will release a live DVD, the first ever of his 27-year career as a solo artist, titled “Live at the Bass Performance Hall,” on March 25, 2008.

Shot at the Bass Performance Hall in Forth Worth, TX, on January 27th, 2007, the performance captures the innovative, tightly orchestrated minimalism that characterized the acclaimed singer, songwriter and guitarist’s first U.S. solo tour in nearly 14 years.The DVD finds Buckingham, joined by his three-piece band, transitioning easily on stage between his solo back catalog (”Trouble,” “Go Insane,” and “Holiday Road”) and electrifying versions of his hits with Fleetwood Mac (”Tusk,” “Second Hand News,” “Go Your Own Way”).

The show also features performances of six cuts from Buckingham’s latest album, the intricately crafted, acoustic-guitar driven “Under The Skin,” including “Not Too Late,” “Show You How,” and “Shut Us Down.” Buckingham’s “Under the Skin” tour, which took place over 2006-2007, was enthusiastically received by critics. The New York Times praised the artist’s appearance at New York’s Town Hall, saying that, “the strength of Buckingham’s songs, his singing and guitar playing, and his strange intensity as a performer carried the evening,” while “his stamina kept the music’s energy fresh and volatile.” The Chicago Tribune called Buckingham “an enigmatic rock’n’roll icon” whose tour is “worth the wait.”

The “Live at the Bass Performance Hall” DVD package also includes the documentary “Not Too Late” — which consists of more than 45 minutes of exclusive, behind the scenes bonus footage shot and produced by Lindsey Buckingham himself — as well as, an audio CD with the same track-listing as the DVD minus “Tusk.”

The complete track-listing for the DVD is as follows:

Not Too Late, Trouble, Never Going Back Again, Second Hand News, Castaway Dreams, It Was You, Big Love, Go Insane, Under The Skin, I’m So Afraid, I Know I’m Not Wrong, Tusk, Go Your Own Way, Holiday Road, Show You How, Shut Us Down.
