[@pattimartin7250]

with you.

[@deborahbrown6408]

@John Harrison, I agree, I am 68, loved this song since it was first released. It brings me much peace, & calm, esp. when life gets so hard. I play it on an hour loop vidio I found on UTube!! Never tire of it, it's a BIG part of the soundtrack of my life, as is much of the music of Peter Green & the Original Fleetwood Mac.🎶💚🎶💙🌟💯

First time I've ever heard Albatross I fell in love with it I still love it to this day it's such a beautiful piece of music. This year I lost my husband as well who was also 73. Peter Green was part of my youth just used to love listen to the group especially Peter Green he had such an unusual voice the whole band just clicked

[@allanhughes7859]

Worshipped this man since i was a teenager, never got tired of listening to his beautiful tones, his style will never be repeated......God bless Pete.

One of the most beautiful acoustic songs ever written. How can anyone dislike this unless they are completely deaf.

[@mikkel2946]

It wasn’t written as an acoustic song though.

[@briantaylor2.023]

It was not originally an acoustic song

[@yobrojoost9497]

Bless your living soul, Peter, and thanks for the wonderful music you gave us...

[@scottdayman5101]

Really good comment bro

[@Acampestre]

Within hours after hearing the statement of a former astronaut. Asked whether and if so which music he heard on the ISS, he said to remember hearing Albatross while watching from the cupola. Thanks Peter Green for so many wonderful pieces of music, have a good time in blues heaven and jam in peace.

[@CooManTunes]

Keep your religious delusions to yourself. The man DIED. ACCEPT IT.

[@jeffsutton6353]

The difference between a good musician and a great one is soul. He had it.

[@zeeshanborah6730]

I was not at all ready for such a huge loss. I am truely devastated 😢💔. My you rest in peace 💔🙏

[@jhuranim]

to the poster of the vid: BB King did not say anything about Green being white. What he said was: "He has the sweetest tone I ever heard; he was the only one who gave me the cold sweats"

[@jamesmicucci7028]

Correct. I've been quoting BB saying this about Peter for decades, whenever I hear someone say "Who's Peter Green?". Said it to somebody unfamiliar with him just the other day when we got the bad news. RIP to one of the only guys who could say it all with a single note, like BB, Albert, etc.

[@crasherxtreme]

That's precisely what he said. How can he or anyone, say anything else? "God love you Pete Green. You will live forever here on earth!"

[@christinapoisson1501]

Yes, indeed he did!

Mehr als 50 Jahre begleitet mich Peters Albatross bereits und hat seither für sooooo viele fantastische Momente gesorgt. Und dieser Albatross wird immer noch so wunderschön durch die Lüfte fliegen, wenn wir alle schon nicht mehr da sind. Peter, hab du schon mal einen guten Flug und daaaaanke für diesen Song.

[@jimandlizhudson2501]

I'm so glad I got see see and hear him in the Splinter Group. Just to see him back on stage was pure emotion.

[@19HurdyGurdyMan46]

Yep, An amazing experience. Thank God I got there too. Guildford in my case, with a few other mad keen Peter Green fans

[@alexandriak42]

Breathtaking... heaven waves, ocean swims, albatross sings and plays...

[@tiffsaver]

ONE OF THE MOST UNDERRATED, UNDER APPRECIATED GUITARISTS OF ALL TIME.

[@brendnju13]

I always admired him!

[@ErgonBill]

There seems to be always at least one who makes this comment about someone who is well rated, appreciated and respected. I suspect the comment always reflects a subjective opinion.

[@tombrehony6277]

The most underrated guitarist ever...

[@ringer4883]

WHEN HAS PETER GREEN EVER BEEN “UNDERRATED” or “UNDER APPRECIATED”?!?!

[@tiffsaver]

@@ringer4883 Your question is clear proof of your utter stupidity. Test me. Just go out on the street and start asking everyone you see, "What do you think of Peter Green." Then ask the same people, ''What do you think of Eric Clapton or Jimi Hendrix." My original statement is 100% correct, in spite of you moronic comment.

[@stk1975]

My Blues hero Peter Green. I listen to all kind of music but American and British Blues are incomparable. The thing with Blues is that it makes you happy and sad at the same time, no other type of music can do that. Plus you got the sweet guitar sound of Peter Green.

[@ronfreeman5857]

RIP Pete...we have to say goodbye to you...but still have your music...Thank you..

[@markspitzok3064]

Most in America think Santana's version of Black Magic Woman was written by them....it was Peter Green who wrote that classic and I like it much more than the Santana cover

[@nicoleehrhardt7792]

How long did it take me, as a 70's teenager and listening to T Rex, Alice Cooper, Sweet and so on, understand what this man was doing? Picked up the guitar at 17, it was Status Quo, Grand Funk, Sabbath and all that stuff. But when I first heard "Albatros", tears ran down my eyes...huu...something beautiful has touched me deep inside

[@jamesmicucci7028]

I was fortunate to get hipped to F. Mac around 1974, I think, via a cutout (bargain) copy of "Fleetwood Mac In Chicago", the USA 2 lp version. Played several songs from that album in blues bands after that, in the '70s, such as "Ooh Baby" (his adaptation of Howlin' Wolf's "Killing Floor").

[@musicmad67]

I was fortunate to have two older brothers who introduced me to the original Fleetwood Mac. 😁💚☮

[@markzimmerman1571]

Same here. Beatles, Led Zep, Purple and then, I got turned on to Oh Well Pts. 1 & 2. WOW, what a spiritual experience. Been a fan ever since. RIP Peter.

I’m not sure where this track transports me... but it’s a really good place

[@tizaniceday9249]

Peter Green was justifiably proud of Albatross when he composed it. To me - all the qualities of Peters playing and compositional skills which guitarists and non-guitarists so admire him for are present in this one piece of music. The grace, the haunting beauty and blues-drenched soul are all there. Great to see that this talented man seems to have achieved a degree of freedom from torment in his life. I think Nigel Watson deserves some credit for this.

[@Rene-xf9uq]

Thank you Peter Green for the music,....

[@mikejackson3885]

Beauty full music by an amazing guitarist and legend. I am so blessed and grateful to have heard and experienced the music the original Fleetwood Mac brought to the world.

[@bigtone1348]

The Ritz Bournemouth 1968. What a show that was. Sweaty, smelly, beer soaked club full of atmosphere. Thank you Peter for the memories. When I asked Jeremy Spencer at Chicago Blues Fest what he remembered of the late 60's gigs he replied 'virtually nothing'.

[@notlrachtron]

how can anyone dislike this .....?

[@jonsmith4669]

+notlrachtron some like to be arsehole's, never even picked up a guitar...I thought that was lovely....

[@theartfuldodger935]

Because Peter Green isn't really playing anything to speak of. The guy to his right is doing all the heavy lifting. Green hasn't been right since March 1970.

[@alansturgess1324]

Because they can't tell the difference between a guitar and their backside. Just trolls.

[@zivkovicable]

Because he used to be the best British Blues guitarist, & it's sad that he can't play guitar anymore.

I remember when Peter actually replaced Eric Clapton in John Mayall's Bluesbreakers. This and many of Peter's work is amazing. I never actually liked Fmac after Peter left them. Great video.
