The thing we love about Fleetwood Mac is their ability to create songs as a full band, as soloists with a backing band, and as a duo with harmonies so tight they are almost indistinguishable. Never Going Back Again is an example of Lindsey Buckingham stretching his solo ability to write and compose. Never going back again is a compilation of 5 different guitar parts, all played by himself, and a bass part played by John McVie but written by Lindsey. Call it a my way or the highway attitude, or call it extreme focused vision - either way, Lindsey Buckingham knew what he wanted with this song and wasn't going to compromise. In this episode hear all about the interesting way this song came to be and maybe learn from Lindsey how to deliver bad news with a delightful tune.
You'll also learn how Shawn translated this acoustic guitar driven song to piano. Shawn shares a few tips and tricks for recreating guitar technique and sounds on a piano throughout this episode. We hope you enjoy.
Most of the research for this episode was done by reading Ken Caillat and Steven Stiefel's book, Making Rumours: The Inside Story of the Classic Fleetwood Mac Album.
