Fleetwood Mac’s 50 Greatest Songs – Rolling Stone
Do your songs usually start with guitar parts? Buckingham Yeah. I've tried, as a writer, to work out of that. It can be too much. That's one strength that Stevie has. She's really not a strong instrumentalist in any way. Her instrument is her voice and her words. And it keeps her focused on the very center of that.
Say You Love Me (Fleetwood Mac song)
You see a lot of instrumentalists who get locked into a part, which then becomes very constricting in terms of what you actually can put around it. And I am definitely guilty of that. Did "Red Rover" start as a guitar piece? Buckingham Yes.

It's another one about looking for a guitar part that would cover so much ground that I didn't have to do much else. There's a lot of stuff going on, but it's not too loud. It's kind of a rumble underneath. It's all about letting the guitar part have so much presence and melodicism on its own that I just let it do its thing and then find a melody to go over that.
The guitar part on "Miranda" does that. That's another very banjo-like part. I hammer on. That's one of the things I do, hammer-ons and pull-offs. There are only a few things I do! Do you always use your fingers on the strings instead of a pick? Buckingham Almost always. Sometimes I use a flatpick in the studio on acoustic. If I need to get a nice clear strumming sound, it's a good idea.
But I don't use a pick onstage at all. When I play banjo, I use fingerpicks. In the last tour, we did "Say You Love Me" in a very sort of camp, hootenanny way where we were all standing in the front, and I was playing a five-string banjo.

And I hadn't had those fingerpicks on for years. It was a mess. Those are cumbersome! But you can't get that speed without them. You can't get that sound. They tried to get me to use a pick when I first joined the band. They had certain things they thought were appropriate. I tried to adapt as much as I could. I was playing a Fender Telecaster when I first joined.
And I started playing a Les Paul, because it was somehow more appropriate to the pre-existing Fleetwood Mac sound, kind of a fatter sound. That wasn't an appropriate guitar for the way that I played. But you do what you can. How do you position your hand to get such a strong attack without using picks? Buckingham I basically rest my wrist above the soundhole, with the heel of my hand down on the body of the guitar.
It gives me a firm foundation. It's not acceptable classical technique, but most of what I do isn't. You do what you can to get the sound you want. Your solos on the new album are amazing. Do you play more than one solo and combine them? No one should be without some music and maybe a good set of ear phones. Or a good st of ears. I know several people who have trouble with the hearing aids. They cost a lot of money and the batteries are always running down.

Very glad I do not have that issue. Batteries — yes, a PITA. Change them once week as long as I remember to crack the casing when I take them out at night , and every 3 or 4 months I pop along to the ears clinic at the local health centre to pick up another box of batteries. I played banjo for a while.
But I could never get beyond a certain level. I'd see these guys who would work their way up and down the neck. Any of those guys Scruggs, even Steve Martin! Bela Fleck? Forget it! It's like why would you want to be that good on the banjo, you know? Come on. I never got that fast, though. I was just doing my triplets. That is a song about Stevie, and it reflects just what I was talking about. The lyric came first, which is unusual for me. I tried to do that song for a number of years and couldn't quite figure out how to do it. After a couple of failed attempts, I came up with a weird tuning where I was dropping the G string down a step so that it became a seventh, and it got me to a place where I could play all these figures fairly easily.
It was not an easy thing to work out. Buckingham I use dropped D quite often and open G and open E sometimes. And sometimes I make up things, like dropping the G string down a step. Did you capo for that one? Buckingham No. I was actually playing in A, tuned down a half step.

I do whatever it takes. I can only play well in a few keys. I didn't take lessons, and I don't know my scales.
