Songs From The Small Machine: Live In LA DVD/CD

I was at this concert. It was a one night only, special gig, filmed at the Saban Theatre in Beverly Hills, April 22, 2011.
I expected an amazing show, but even so, had no idea it would be THAT GOOD!!! Lindsey just gets better and better, and this performance far exceeded my already high expectations. It was simply jaw-dropping good!!

Lindsey did NOT disappoint! His voice was in top form - so strong and emotional. His playing...phenomenal as always! A once in a lifetime show I will never forget. Lindsey puts on a concert like no other, and it's a shame more people don't know it. This concert will blow you away! If you like his new album, you will love those songs played live. Lindsey is a whole other beast in his live shows.

Besides the stunning versions of his new songs, he of course plays some of his hits from Fleetwood Mac, as well as gems from all of his previous albums. He's a master of both electric and acoustic, with a mesmerizing style all his own - and he showcase it all in this beautiful concert. He begins the concert all alone, with just his guitar for the first six songs. Then he brings on his tight band of three Brett Tuggle - keyboards, guitars, backing vocals; Neal Heywood - guitars, backing vocals; Walfreo Reyes - drums/percussion ). They're a really great band, and it's hard to believe so much sound and energy comes from just the 4 musicians! The guys are pros, and they definitely know how to play!!

If you love great guitar, great songwriting, or just love a fantastic show put on by a tremendously talented man...you'll want to get this DVD!! Lindsey holds nothing back. A true artist who gives you his heart and soul every time he performs.

Here's the set list:

"Shut Us Down"
"Go Insane"
"Trouble"
"Never Going Back Again"
"Big Love"
"Under the Skin"
"All My Sorrows"
"In Our Own Time"
"Illumination"
"Second Hand News"
"Tusk"
"Stars Are Crazy"
"End of Time"
"That's the Way Love Goes"
"I'm So Afraid"
"Go Your Own Way"
"Turn It On"
"Treason"
"Seeds We Sow"

This concert is available on DVD, or Blu-ray, and also a DVD/CD combo. All of the songs are also on the CD, except for "Go Insane", "Turn It On", and "Treason".

*** Additionally, as it's been brought up in comments to another review, I just want to stress that this concert was professionally filmed, and is a legit release. The Lindsey Buckingham/ Little Big Town DVD is a boot - and a crappy one at that. Too bad, 'cause it was a great show, and I don't know why CMT or the artists don't make an official release. However, this isn't a boot. Lindsey is releasing this. Obviously, I can't guarantee the quality because it hasn't been released yet, BUT, there is no reason to expect it to be any less than his other two legit release - Soundstage and Bass Hall. Actually it should be better, especially if you get the Blu-ray

Just watched this on Palladia. We saw Lindsey in Pittsburgh a few weeks ago on the same tour with the same set list. The concert was fantastic! I am still on a Lindsey Buckingham high. He is terribly under-rated in my opinion. He is the talent in Fleetwood Mac. The songs from his new album are amazing. Buy this concert DVD, you will not be disappointed.

ok I dont really understand why Lindsey in general gets such little recognition but even more so on his solo stuff. This new album is nothing short of amazing in my opinion and I have been lucky enough to see his shows starting with Under the Skin, Gift of Screws then I saw him with Mac and most recently Seeds we Sow, this man plays his heart out and is by far one of the best live performers especially for a guy whos 62. On that note if havent been lucky enough to see him live in concert you should definitely pick this up and even if you have you still should I am!
