three days ago. Stevie has a great album coming out, as does Lindsey, and
we're going to be probably 18 months away from doing some good Mac
recordings and touring."

10/10/00 - Lindsey
Buckingham on John Stewart album
On October 10, Appleseed released John
Stewart's new album "Wires From The Bunker" (APR 1047), a
compilation of 18 songs recorded between 1981-1983, after the
"Gold" rush of John's 1979 hit single co-produced by Lindsey
Buckingham had worn off and John and the RSO label were parting company.
Lindsey guests on the rocking lead-off track, "American Way",
playing lead guitar and singing backing vocals. He is also the subject of
another song on the CD, "Liddy Buck", written by John as a return
tip of the hat to Lindsey, whose "Johnny Stew" salutes John on
"Law And Order". According to John's liner notes, "It's about
this time in his life when they were recording the "Tusk" album
and he was deliberating leaving the band if he couldn't record some tracks
on his own. I tried to simulate a Lindsey-esque track as best I could as an
homage to him. He always was and will continue to be a great inspiration to
me." Pretty humble words from someone Lindsey acknowledges as a big
influence on him!
