Fleetwood Mac Black Magic Woman live London 1970

[@Johngonefishin]

Does anyone else think the vocal by Peter is absolutely as good as it possibly could be, not to mention the stellar playing?

[@RosaLichtenstein01]

Without doubt, in his prime, the best blues guitarist the UK has ever produced. Mega thanks for posting this!

[@arfurchance10]

This still sends shivers down my spine late at night, awesome. Ray

[@mcddtlc]

What an INCREDIBLE Version of this song - this shows you why so many thought Peter was the best of the best!! MLC

[@hannixpannix]

Energy, dynamic and timing - all in one *****

[@gsasko]

Unbelievable playing and vocals!

[@kentishtowncowboy]

Peter Green. Wonderful writer and marvellous Soulful guitar.

[@bushibayushi]

Peter Green nailed the solo here, my god, 200% load of emotion

[@jeanmarieboucherit7376]

Making his path.So incredible.

[@DisturbedPickle]

PG at that time showed a fantastic personal slant to the BB blues and produced a tone and talent for melodious playing which, in my humble opinion, has never been equalled! Nuff said.

[@mrswimmyboy]

I believe this recording is from Roundhouse in London, the last gig Peter Green played as a member of Fleetwood Mac. (He later joined a tour to play after Jeremy Spencer disappeared.) Another exceptional track is "I've Got a Mind to Give Up Living" from Stockholm 1970. Slow blues guitar heaven...

[@waltraud734]

No Matter how often hear it , Peters Black Macig Woman is magic no one could imitate his song like he did it , just not to believe how good he was that times💚💚💚 till the badones made him 👎🖤 🖤🖤

[@coravisser727]

Awesomeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee is this perfect.

[@FF-so3su]

Round House, Chalk Farm London. April 1970. The infamous Munich Incident was 22nd March 1970. Peter had already told his manager he was quitting by the time of this gig😢

[@fieldfullofthistles]

Tremendous post. Love the putside notes he starts playing around 6.32 onwards.

[@LynKatherine]

@SilsDrumtiK Peter Green founded Fleetwood Mac, naming the band after Mic Fleetwood and John McVie. The band went through several line up changes after Peter Green left, including the addition of Christine Perfect who married John McVie and later added the 2 Yanks Buckingham and Nicks. Yes, they were once pure blues before transforming into a pop band.

[@SisterRayVU68]

You get it! Thank you.

[@0405Photography]

Very nice version! Thanks!

[@universallanguage59]

Despite the recording quality, one has to think versions like this are how the legends of Peter and his 'magic' Les Paul got started...

[@bluesgunner]

Some of this sounds like material from 'End of the Game'. Danny Kirwan, as brilliant as he was then, is floundering here. Greeny is on another level.

[@cgavin1]

Since time has no meaning in this place, and having a great appreciation for Green and that particular album, I sincerely don't under-rate Kirwan. He was very much the protégé to Green and was no slouch; right to the end. Drugs stole them both from us.. two more tragic victims hard to find. Only Hendrix really hits harder. Kirwan died alone in a halfway house after sleeping rough for decades. Green died circa 1974. The body lingered on for 4 more decades. The three of them had unlimited potential.

[@woodsy1405]

Pious Bird of good omen was our fave Brit blues album for years.Fab stuff

[@IXIBobOhIXI]

Green. The only guitarist I know that can conjure black magic.

[@pause10two4]

@bizarrobryann It was a Fleetwood Mac single in 1968 and then on their 1969 compilation albums "English Rose" (US) / "The Pious Bird of Good Omen" (UK)

[@maximilianjazz]

yes for sure

[@TheMartino53]

awesum to jam with

[@TomkinEuler]

@LynKatherine Don't forget the "Mystery to Me" period! a happy California kind of sound, with songs like "Hypnotised"..

[@TomkinEuler]

@shimergalz Better? the latin percussion and drive of the Santana version still gives me chills. But listen to the rolling, slightly ahead of the beat, drumming of this rhythem section! and the way it starts, a sustained chord, stopped cold by the first beat of the drum.. it's all good, no?

[@FF-so3su]

Chalk Farm April 1970. Double CD of gig is available.

[@stwads]

Be nice to see visuals of this to see who plays what! Danny & Peter duelling guitarists!

[@tomojay28]

@Nemamime I Prezime No, that's Peter Green. Kirwan plays the solo on Oh Well though. Kirwan did do a good job on lead on Black Magic Woman when Green left the band.

[@scottus1955]

so very soulful..peter green IS the shit!

[@robertvamoldo]

Peter Green and Szabo Gabor. Thats why the song has hungarian folk music parts. Great song.

[@tombstonejackson]

@LongLiveTheBlues Peter was amazing wasn't he. But IMHO THE most underrated Blues guitarist has got to be Johnny Winter. He was the only white guitarist to ever be REALLY accepted by the Black Blues masters. He is also probably the most consistent, Yep Johnny has got to be right up there.

[@kindashi]

@mrJJ123guitars. Fleetwood mac, especially peter green wrote the song, Santana's just did a cover.

[@franciscojavierrodriguezlo1328]

who played the first solo Danny or Peter?PETER AND RORY GALLAGHER ARE MY GODS.And i love DANNY KIRWAN too

[@brownsmiley1]

I like it too many.

[@valois89]

@shimergalz You are, like, sooo right

[@tomrom7]

@robertvamoldo No, Black Magic Woman was written by Peter Green. You're thinking of Santana's version, which was merged with Gypsy Queen, written by Gabor Szabo.

[@Jimmy2times90]

@ThePpapppp lol true Peter green is got too be the most underrated bluesman in the world for me i think he is easily up there wiv clapton buddy guy bb king etc.

[@SisterRayVU68]

Does this jam sound like Gypsy Queen? Does it remind you of the Allman Brothers Live at the Fillmore East??? This jam trumps anything Carlos Santana could produce in his entire lifetime (post Munich 3/70). He leached off Peter Green, and took advantage of him!

[@RosaLichtenstein01]

As I said, this is not worth arguing over. :)

[@spooler1]

this is thee original by peter green &fleetwood mac when they were still cool

[@Barnekkid]

This is the real thing.

Chalk farm April 1970s a few weeks before peters departure from FWM

[@furie1984]

@jaynez31 True !!!

[@RosaLichtenstein01]

Brilliant version -- but could do without the wah wah peddle. Thanks for posting!

[@evelynjohnson4670]

I LOVE the wah!

[@szekelymihai]

yeah. nice pictures. what did you use to achieve the effects?

[@ScottT248]

I love all era's of the Fleetwood Mac from the Peter Green era right up until the Nicks-Buckingham era. The boys in the rhythm section (Mick Fleetwood and John Mcvie) certainly knew how to put together some of the best bandmates around. Even the Bob welch era was pretty cool. Great stuff here though. Thanks for sharing.

[@waltraud734]

Don't think Peter wrote this wonderful song for a muslime woman , but more for his wife

[@waltraud734]

Yes he wrote it for his that time wife and its just fantastic 💚💚💚

[@0405Photography]

Yup... Think it's one of his first... Yeh, I don't feel Santana's version either... You should watch on youtube: The Peter Green Story (1/12)

[@diannec100]

@mrJJ123guitars The true version? Peter Green wrote the song, the true version, if you like. He also performed the song in a lot of different "versions," like this one. Santana's song was a cover of the original. He remixed it, not the other way around. Learn before you post.

[@0405Photography]

Do it? Peter wrote it!

[@RosaLichtenstein01]

I'm sorry, but I could not understand your comment.

[@RosaLichtenstein01]

Well, that's always a matter of opinion. Peter certainly was Gary's superior in this respect (as he was almost everyone else's), but Gary can play with soul, too -- when he wants to. Anyway, remind me, to whom did Peter give his prized Gibson? [That speaks for itself, I think.] But, Peter could still do without the wah wah peddle. It ruined the beautiful and clear tone of his guitar. But, this is hardly worth fighting over -- there are far more important things in life.

[@muide7]

Get your hifi tuned up, man!

[@SisterRayVU68]

While I respect Gary Moore for his talent, he had no ear for tone. He took Peter's gift Gibson and ruined it by adding pedal distortion. WHY!?! Gary used some 1980's metal Marshall amp, and an added pedal to make it worse. Peter Green = a reverb box made by Fender, or Orange, a wah pedal, a boost pedal, and distortion provided by an original Fender Dual Showman head! Perfection!

[@mrJJ123guitars]

I did not mean up until the Stevie/Lindsey era, I meant right up to through the Stevie/Lindsey era. I love the Stevie/Lindsey era the best, but the older FM is great too.

[@socalganjafarm4208]

Tone deaf

[@dlwatib]

A horrible recording of what had to be a great performance. All sense of harmonics is lost through all the noise and distortion. Recorded on duct tape with a bit of barbed wire for a needle.

[@mrJJ123guitars]

@shimergalz its pretty good but you cant remix something so legend. i personaly think the real virsion is classic. fleetwood made a good remix but not better than the true version

[@ovneb]

freaky video....

[@SisterRayVU68]

Gary Moore plays with no soul, now that he's dead. Even alive, he never played like THIS!! absorb!
