Couldn't believe there was no thread for Lindsey already! An extremely tasty player who's strayed into mildly Dino territory a few times. What a songwriter too!

One of Lindsey's best performances here, from about 1:44 and 2:29, and a take on Peter Green's Oh Well. There's also the amazing I'm So Afraid from The Dance and the somewhat random shredding he did all over Say You Will... :shred:

    Great player in a sort of less rock Jimmy Page mode i.e. plays for the song.

    One of my all time favorites tracks, but I prefer this earlier performance:

    I think sometimes if you try to play too technically, you lose something in the music - like you're playing for another guitar player. I like to play for people. The more sophisticated and mature guitarists become, the more they go with the feel.

    Awesome performance! Another from the same era, this time Rhiannon

    2:48! I miss seeing him with the Les Paul! :shred:

    My favourite Lindsey riff, Tusk

    I think he's great!  Definitely non-Dino but a tasteful player and he always had great style.

    He also approaches the instrument in his own way. Maybe there's a little Jeff Beck running through his veins.

    Great songwriter. I like his signature/custom acoustic models. Very cool.
    I feel the same way about him that I feel about Schon -- if they played with bigger balls (too) they would RULE (that much more).

    Great player, great songwriter. I actually always preferred his version of "Oh Well". I don't
    think there is a more unique rock guitarist out there.
