Peter Green - Embryonic Journey

[@DetVen]

On one hand I am disappoint this isn't "the" Peter Green, but on the other hand, I'm glad I found this video...what a wonderful piece of music and brilliant guitar playing.

[@littlebitofsynergy5545]

Dear God in heaven!!! This! This! THis is what perfection and mastery sound and look and feel like. I have been perfecting this song since I was in high school ( Class of 92) and I still nowhere near this level of proficiency and beauty. THank you for sharing, Peter.

[@nicknurnee9741]

Wow I was thinking the "other" Peter Green when I clicked, but wow, that was friggin mint!! Seriously, that was awesome!

[@GlenBraeDude]

Having been present to enjoy a number of Jorma's live renditions in person since the late '60s this is easily the best cover I've ever heard. Way to go, Peter, you've been practicing and then some. I'll be listening, thank you.

[@dharmabeachbum6330]

Bravo! I'm a big fan of Jorma and you have done this tune justice - and then some!

[@chordchaser]

I've seen Jorma do this a hundred times and that was as good and as accurate as I've seen him play it. Note for note, notwithstanding a handful you threw in there for good measure. Outstanding.

[@macfunkey]

Yes, great playing. For me somewhat marred by booming on the bass.

[@zelmoziggy]

Not note for note.

[@jcout25]

You've seen Jefferson Airplane live, several hundred times? Doubtful.

[@zelmoziggy]

@@jcout25 Jorma has done hundreds, if not thousands, of shows solo and with Hot Tuna since Jefferson Airplane disbanded.

[@chordchaser]

@@jcout25 I never saw the Jefferson Airplane and I didn't say I did. What's with the hostility?

[@dancingbear86]

Awesome interpretation of a Jefferson Airplane favorite! This guy definitely knows how to play it! Bravo!

[@brendanmcnally9145]

Beautiful. I've always loved that song! Well done!

[@JamesRobert14]

Best cover of this I've seen. I got goosebumps watching you play with that huge smile on your face. This is how it's done! Thank you for the inspiration!

[@w.l.graves7228]

fantastic performance ! thank you !

[@laroccam]

Peter you nailed it, it sounds really really fantastic!

[@paulpickering4484]

Great rendition of one of my favourites. Beautiful tone. Thank you.

[@davepeacock7438]

Most excellent.....why would anyone give this a thumbs down? Great guitar work!

[@davids632]

The only word I can think of is "Wow". This guy is frigging amazing. I am mesmerized watching this and love seeing the pleasure he is getting from being in total control of this song.

[@JeffWendland]

Love this song and you honored it well.

[@johndeere365]

amazing clarity sounds , breath taking performance this song makes my mind wonder back in time . love it

[@bluesforhire]

just a perfect rendition of this awesome song. The control is amazing. Wow !

[@martinzaehringer1697]

Really good, but can you imagine being an excellent young guitarist and having the name Peter Green. He should change his name, maybe to Peter Bowie.

[@sunnyganim6727]

Martin Zaehringer haha lol

[@Tull1996]

It's an old post...but still deserves an lol :-)

[@coreyjones2694]

Peter Gunn

[@filofoto]

Oh man is this guy good! He nails it almost note by note, FEEL BY FEEL! Nice. And the smile on his face, haha, brilliant!

[@bretolson8484]

I’m overjoyed with your rendition of this beautiful song. It means so much to me having discovered it on a mysterious mix tape made by a friend of a friend from Spain during some difficult and brilliant times, summer of ‘94. The way you play it is with so much love, thank you for sharing your performance.

[@mikedenby6771]

That was possibly the most impressive live performance I've ever seen.

[@KFHesson]

Wonderful guitarist! Love how your whole body is making music!

[@alancameron8897]

thank you,the vibrations of your guitar remind me of my fathers playing-.beautiful thanks again.

[@dominictierney]

Brilliant!! Passion, and played from the 'heart' sounded great!

[@TheTotemma12]

i love the way you play, not just technically but the way you smile and bounce around! you put me in a good mood! :)

[@pudgeification]

Well Done, Peter! After seeing this for the first time after many years after your original performance, I'm certain you would have made Jorma proud!

[@jimeisele6046]

Ummm... wow! I'm kinda blown away. I've seen Jorma do this on multiple occasions over the years and I think you're definitely showing up the master on his own song! Well played sir, well played!

[@susan7266]

SouthCountryLibrary: THANK YOU!!!~~~~~~ for posting this... this tune is a memory of my late teen years... brings back so much joy for the amazing times I was so fortunate to have been a part of as an up and roaming young musician... Peter Green's music is new to me... he is just incredible!! OUTSTANDING !! ++++++

[@paulruston3648]

Keep coming back to this. Heard this version years ago. Will say, the first time I heard the song was the final episode of friends. Loved it. Found out it was a Jefferson Airplane song. Watched many performances by Jorma himself. But this tops them all. It’s a fantastic rendition. Would love to here more from you, Peter. Stay well.

[@kingpetra6886]

I don't now if tops Jorma's but this is by far and away the best rendition of the original.

[@martina.6732]

There aren't enough superlatives to describe the beauty of this track and the mastery of guitar in this video. Quite simply, I'm blown away.

[@jhandle4196]

It's certainly one of Jorma Kaudonen's finest compositions.

[@CaptainBoisterous]

If an original cover could possibly exist, you have succeeded. Very well done. Thanks. I love it.

[@TaffmanGuyo]

10 years on, just popped back for another taste - lovely.

[@surferpam1]

Oh, man... You nailed it. Beautiful.

[@MrJacksaces]

Excellent tone and well played!

[@Kenny62298]

"Do you have to leave now, can we get some coffe?" "Sure, Where?"

[@joshuanartey7902]

YAY im not alone

[@marijnwijbenga1102]

my heart

[@lisadc4681]

I know! 😭😭😭

[@Youtube_deleted_my_favourites]

Just watched the closing scene after todays news.

[@alexbruce9]

The Masterpiece remains just that in the hands of Peter Green, what did anyone who appreciates this piece expect? My God, the founder of Fleetwood Mac, Blues Daddy of the "Day", of course this is an exceptional version of a Great Piece. Thank you (whom ever you are) for the posting it.

[@martinaxman2033]

Peter, YOU'VE been practicing! lol. One of the best versions I've heard.

[@JamesVibe]

Wow! that was sweet! Cheers to Paul Kantner too. RIP

[@jimmyjameson8705]

Gorgeous, thanks.

[@thebone1964]

How could any have a problem with this? Beautiful.

[@fortunateson5952]

Well, that's just jaw dropingly amazing. If just the audio I'd have sworn that was Jorma playing and would have said you're crazy if you told me it was someone else.

[@lisadc4681]

Sounds exactly like Jorma and the original version!!! You are amazing!!!!

[@jorgeramirezcamarena4904]

Excellent song, Excellent Jorma and excellent cover. Thankyou.

[@sk8rman632]

I can't believe what I just watched. Astounding job!

[@petetgarner1665]

Absolutely beautiful ! Completely amazing in each and every way ! I was crying half way through this ! Clapton cannot play this well! If you can listen to this without shedding one tear then you are a pjyscopath and I don't care to know you !

[@jamesmcgowan2374]

One of the most beautiful compositions for the guitar and your version does it real justice. Love how you extended it. Joyful performance.

[@mathmusic1490]

Kudos....beautiful piece of work.

[@haworthhoarder]

I'm blown away. I never thought I'd see anybody tackle this song and get it right !

[@cravinbob6774]

+haworthhoarder It really is not that hard but can make you sound like a virtuoso especially amped with reverb. I have recording of Jorma playing this in 1962. He was my teacher and he was called "Jerry".

[@rippledrop9966]

Really well played, organic and beautiful

[@coldwarjet]

Beautiful version.

[@patszer8314]

Excellent! Thanks for posting!

[@davidcoorey423]

Wow! What a virtuoso performance👋👋👋.

[@MrYoshicat]

Spectacular mellow tune , merry Christmas all !

[@brom1117]

Going to have this played at my funeral luncheon.

[@kevinfinnegan7539]

Best cover I’ve ever heard.

[@dongossett110]

Excellent. I’ve worked on that for many years and just now learning to do it semifluidly. Great timing and pacing

[@123ThisIsMe]

Ha, this is great ... as I was looking for more stuff from Peter Green (the Peter Green that played in Fleedwood Mac for some time) I came across THIS Peter Green. And it turns out to be a guitarist I heard a looong time ago and really loved his fingerstyle. I only remembered his first name 'Peter' ... well and here he is. I found him again by sheer coincidence ... or by coincidental same name, lol ツ

[@circe801]

nice tribute to jorma!! you are, and always were, indeed, very good, peter!

[@stevienox8675]

Bravo, Sir!

[@troyjango2492]

wonderful stuff

[@ebbyguru]

Nice repeats throughout. Great ending. Terrific performance. Keep it up.

[@oldzoot]

Holy crap and apologies to Mr. Green. It only took me ten years to get here. Embryonic journey I suppose. Jorma will be honored at how you've perfected his tune.

[@Wildvideonyc]

Outstanding!!

[@MrGWmusic]

that was exceptionally well done sir..:-)

[@everythinggamingnow]

was stumbling around looking for some acoustic peter green (fleetwood mac) stuff, and this was a nice surprise. Found something cool that i didn't even know i was looking for! Nice playing dude! keep it up!

[@GhstsnGuitars]

Really digging the frequency of these Jams!

[@Themin1]

this was great!

[@kingpetra6886]

Forty five years before the date of that performance, this guy would have been filling large coffee houses, sizable indoor venues and small stadiums. This is a pretty fresh refresh. The tempo is a bit faster. He doesn't do pull offs but he makes the strings earn their pay. And he makes it look so easy.

[@dean4559]

Excellent. Nothing else needs be said, except having the name Peter Green, being a guitarist, like being named Keith Richard. ;-)

[@larrymarks3547]

Friends brought me here.

[@stormcrow8149]

Awesome job!! My favorite song!!

[@Adayinthelife666]

There a now two Peter Greens I had to put my hat off!! You got it !!!

[@klimber10001]

This is a great tune, heard it 1st on a Jefferson Airplane video. Loved them both, thank you for this great number:o)

[@JC50000000]

"sure... where?" :'( damn, i wish I could play guitar like this, amazing

[@coronelsakura2841]

This PEter Green is not the FM´s Peter Green, Right? Well, this guy can play, man. Bloody hell!

[@ProperParts]

Very cool, thank you

[@sherri-lynnwhite401]

Bravo!! Awesome!!

[@caffeineskididdlydoo]

Beautifully played!

[@lummers12dub]

U feel the music- it shows. Well done.

[@sanji7xy]

Amazing!

[@jeffreymorse2365]

Beautiful. TALENT-PLUS!!

[@briankelly7632]

As a longtime fan of Jorma Kaukonen, I say amazingly well done sir.

[@degasE1]

Wow!!!! Excellent, JK would be proud! David

[@yogeshsinkar6780]

F.R.I.E.N.D.S :°°( brought me here ! the best thing ever

[@chevalasco]

wow! great performance with compliments from rome italy. ciao

[@albertfernandez9934]

Very Sweet PeterGreen !!!

[@maureendevries1904]

Faithful to the original!

[@mksland3884]

Although I've tired of the expression it is apropos here. Spot on!

[@petersmith9530]

i was expecting a different peter green :(

[@PunkHippie1971]

I can't find any video anywhere of anyone playing this so well.

[@graybeard1952]

Then you haven't seen Jorma Kaukonen's videos.

[@gijsbertuslaurensvandevooren]

PunkHippie1971 Jorma Kaukonen

[@outfield1988]

PunkHippie1971 Think Jorma would like it

[@janski1982]

Incredible!

[@barbaranicholas9855]

awesome sir!

[@justincraddock3228]

That was pretty good. I caught how he missed a part, but like a pro, he played right through it. Jourma's songs are not easy. This is one I intend to learn. Water Song was tough, but pretty easy once you get a little muscle memory.

[@timjohnson3877]

Very clean rendition. He actually covers that break at 1:15 more smoothly than Kaukonen did on the master recording :-)

[@gropenfelt]

Brilliant!!!

[@SiddharthGargYT]

Brilliant.

[@g.i.a.i.n.c.7221]

The best song ever.

[@largemarge1603]

Great energy!

[@rbotion]

Beautiful

[@countryroadman]

Just great! Bravo!!
