Lindsey Buckingham Realization
He really doesn't give up on a riff. If he's got a riff that's cool enough, he'll make more than one song out of it.
The most well known to me was "Doing What I Can" (1992) which he'd built from the main riff of Big Love (1987).
Well, I just discovered another Tango in the Night recycling - Family Man is a reworking of several key motives from Go Insane (1984).
And all four songs are great.
btw, this kind of recycling isn't being lazy - Brahms, Wagner, Mozart, Berlioz, Rachmaninoff, and Tchaikovsky all did this at times.
more contemporaniously, Marillion did that to a degree by taking bits of a sample assembled for Berlin and reusing it in Splintering Heart. :)
