Peter Green - Need Your Love So Bad

Peter Green was my hero when I took up guitar in 1969 I'm so proud that even as a wee boy I knew class when I heard it, played in bands for 40 years and all thanks to the great man inspiring me, RIP Peter you where the greatest.

[@gdlblues1]

What a great song...Peter Green was a great song writer and blues player.One of the best.

[@larryhillman5787]

Peter Green was underrated in my opinion. This one of my favorite Blues ballads of all time and he and his band put on a fine performance here. RiP.

[@ronwood7029]

Hey it’s Peter Green doing his best for you to hear , be glad he is trying his best

[@geraldbrown2875]

Peter Green is the guy playing the sea foam green fender stratocaster wearing the red wool cap. If you haven't listen to the early Fleetwood Mac when they were a British blues band before the girls(Stevie Nicks, Christine McVie & Lindsey Buckingham) you are missing out on something very special my friends

[@paulm1162]

Christine McVie was married to john hence the Mac in fleetwood so not quite sure about that, still the best selling/popular album was and is dreams. I prefer the other playing even when doing albatross he plays all the crucial bits not peter green, just my opinion

[@amyleigh02]

peter greens fleetwood mac were my favourite blues band, at the time (apart from john mayalls bluesbreakers) they were were only band at the time that played REAL blues, im 70 years old now and my musical tastes have never changed, i no longer play in bands but still keep my hand in playing my gibson in my conservatory, (to the dissatisfaction of my wife lol)

[@johndimarzio8966]

@@paulm1162 It was named Mac to entice John to leave the Mayall and the Bluesbreakers (a previous band). His wife later played with them FM (after they were already named Fleetwood Mac).

[@bunnys1980]

For anyone who could misunderstood. Lindsey is a dude

[@robnamowicz8073]

Thanks to you Nigel for helping Peter. He was truly an inspiration. Gone to Glory now.

Nigel actually died a couple of years back.

[@sterlingsmith4937]

Makes me miss Greeny's Les Paul, these later performances were hard for him. LEGEND!!! RIP GREENY

Never compare great guitar players and singers every musician has his ,her style of playing and singing, every musician needs his her fans inspiration, and appreciation.

RIP Peter Green best british blues singer/guitarist ever!!

And... Jerry Stevenson off Be Sharp

[@coreyjones2694]

Peter Green turned me on to the blues back in the late 60's and I am forever in his debt. RIP Danny!

[@ivotull8855]

Peter was, is and will be the best ever. His soft broken voice is here still beautiful and true, so tragic and real... and his playing... he is not what he was once, sure, but he will be for me the biggest eglish bluesman ever

[@mellowado6184]

I saw the Peter Green Splinter Group in Basidon in 1996. I knew it wasn't going to be the same as the 60's but this Nigel bloke helped PG out brilliantly. We met the whole band at the bar after. I asked Green if he knew any music theory, and he said 'I'm just learning that now'. Cozy Powell was also on drums. One of the best gigs I've ever been to, and I've been to thousands.

[@michaelhenaghan8673]

Saw PG when I was 16, supporting BB King in 1997, so not long after your experience. Not sure I really appreciated what I was watching that night at the time, but have some brilliant memories of it.

[@anotherdougie]

i wish those asking to hear Peter Green leading would understand that it is very unlikely that his mental health will ever allow that to happen... He wrote some beautiful music and gave us amazing performances... be satisfied, for his sake!

[@mizrae]

+simba young He did not, however, write this song. It's Little Wille John. But I love me some Peter Green. What's with the haters, anyway? Have you heard what's left of Brian Wilson FFS?

[@anotherdougie]

sorry, no interest in Brian Wilson at all..

[@tiggertoo1962]

Was actually Little Willie's brother Mertis Jr who wrote it - Willie was just the first to record it. Anyway, that's just an aside to set the record straight. The reason I'm commenting at all is just to let the (at this point in time) 40 "dislikers" know that they are the real losers here. Pete Green may have fallen, but he has at least been up there in a position to fall from. I'd wager not a single one of these guys (or gals) has as much feeling in their whole body, as Pete still has in the hairs up his left nostril. Don't ever get even weaker than you are, guys, cos the wolves will be waiting to get you.

[@brothermike2506]

Pete is passed away

[@Taxman97]

When each note played carries this much expression and feeling, who needs to play at a million miles an hour. His solo at 3:40, is beautiful.

[@philfrank9226]

So tastefull, how he started, fantastic.

[@ilyedtou]

Damn heart breaking, but the man is a legend and deserves some respect. I’m glad he has some great support by the other talented artists here! RIP Peter and your gentle soul!

[@LindaCharley-h7x]

😢 Peter Green was an absolute legend. Just listening to this takes me back. You cannot take away the man's talent. Such a shame 😞

[@barblessable]

Fleetwood mac ,played the BOAT CLUB in Nottingham every few months during the 60s they were a blues band then as this song demonstrates, Peter had a great feel for the genre.

[@Rich915]

He gave so much & took so little. PG...you were a guiding light for those times when it was too difficult to see...

[@louiseelson2949]

Made this old lady’s heart cry .

[@JJ_Marriott]

Jesus, the hairs on my arms stood up on their ends soon as Peter started singing. Man I’d love to see him play live. Simply amazing.

[@michellerivera4090]

He is but a shadow of what he once was , but Peter has given us some real great an diverse that may never be matched or forgotten.

[@stevespencer7442]

Fabulous, touching, soulful performance.

[@nightnurse777]

He still has one of the most unusually gorgeous blues voices that I've ever heard. Love you, Greenie💚💚💚

[@dabluzedabluze260]

Just shows, its not the quantity of notes thats important, but rather the feel and emotion put into each one. thats where the message lies!

[@ferpirata76]

All the great ones are leaving us. Rest in peace and thank you for your art and legacy.

[@davisongavindavison9401]

Absolutely phenomenal musician, he'll be missed by so many, me included. Rest in peace Peter Green 💔💙

[@b4mky]

Peter Green was amazing for sure .... but let us not forget Nigel Watson also a brilliant musician in his own right and they were great friends. Nigel helped him passively for a long time.

[@rootsrock2394]

My parents took me to a splinter group gig when I was 12, we hung around after and got to meet Peter. He was a lovely bloke, absolutely shot to bits but a lovely bloke❤

[@clive3100]

Looking at a number of comments here, it was actually Nigel Watson performing the lead guitar and vocals with Peter playing mainly rhythm guitar with minimal vocals. Nevertheless, the spirit of PG's '60's version was there for all to hear/see and what an excellent version it was.

[@juanleon2108]

Peter Green was one of the greatest purest musician and person 100 percent ❤

[@Syncroschannel]

I think Peter's vocal and guitar are just gorgeous on this take...

[@musicasone]

he doesnt need your sympathies. this man is a living legend. and one of my favorite guitarists he played with feeling when he played the blues...thank you peter

[@peteraylward6593]

I have got an album from 1967 with all the classics of Peter Green with The original line up. Its probably the best album of the 60's.

[@garethwonham5622]

For me the greatest British guitarist and one of the all time greats. You cannot compare him to the Peter Green at his height, tho there is still something in his voice and his playing. Still love them man and would love to still see him play live

[@MoonlitBrenya]

can't believe that there are people who could dislike this... this is a love song right here...

[@clevebaker8399]

My favorite blues player!! Since 68when I got the first album!!! The rest is history for me !! Without Peter Jeremy or Danny !! Ain’t no Mac 🥹

[@daviemcf]

We all need the old Peter so bad....nobody sings this like Peter with original Fleetwood Mac.He was the greatest British blues guitar player ever.

[@larjanus]

So good to see PG still performing and sounding fine despite the hard road he has walked. I used to chat to him occasionally when I lived in Richmond back in the early 80's, and he was a gentle soul. The kids would call him Wolfman and chuck stones at him but he just shrugged it off with a sad smile. His dreams of a better world never quite came to fruition but he still lives in hope, a lesson to us all.He's had the blues alright...

[@glh-zs7mf]

So great to see Peter performing here - the little subtle killer touches still evident - fantastic🎸❤️👍

Greeny shows his chops are instinctual when it comes to bending strings. Loved you back in the Mayall and early Fleetwood Mac days....and love you here man.

[@Dites1954]

Peter has written some of the finest songs ever, played some of the greatest riffs ever but......the original version he did of this was the absolute supreme song ever. His guitar playing then and his voice were just superb!

[@ConcepcionOrgeas]

En effet, la version de Peter Green est grandiose, je ne saurais choisir entre lui et Gary Moore, les deux sont merveilleux, merci du partage ♥♥♥

[@dazgoodwin205]

Peter Green..... he spent so many years denying he was worth his accolades. Without him the "blues" would never have reached the UK. Without him Fleetwood Mac wouldn't exist. The early videos of him and Fleetwood Mac are amazing. Such a great talent.

[@donnkizz]

Wonderful oozing with bluesy soul

[@bleysrichard8764]

I am a french guy and have listened this beautiful track when i was very young. Its my favourite of Peter Green and please listen the original with only Peter on solo. Amazing, really great.

[@MrMybrojake]

This is heartbreaking, I saw Peter at his very greatest, he needed no one to sing for him, and sure as hell needed no one to play guitar for him!! If this doesn't show people drugs are a terrible thing then i really have no idea what will. Peter Greene was just the most amazing purveyour of the blues, to be left as a shell of a man is so cruel!!

[@yonifriedman7769]

Really wish greeny was playing the intro. His solo and fills throughout this version show he clearly can still play and play with soul and taste. Peter green you sir are a G!!!

[@rockfollicles4993]

This clip is part of a much longer video, about 90 minutes, available elsewhere on KZbin. Green takes the lead on both vocals and guitar almost all the time except on the obvious hits like Need your love and Man of the world. Maybe he feels there's not much else he can say with them?

[@geew-fr9th]

Commentators on this vid seem to misunderstand how this 'present' peter green was extending the usual pentatonic blues cliches to a different level from where he left off 30 or so years ago.Always a feeling guitarist! Long live his memory in musician's psyche

[@dougallsdiscs]

Fantastic.....unbeatable.....the best by far,Murray in Scotland.

[@billbradshaw4115]

Masterful, of course, and sad to post this on the day Peter's death was announced. But from a personal viewpoint, I'm so glad Peter Green's talent influenced Paul Kossoff to play the blues...we lost Koss in 1976 aged just 25. Gone far too soon but what a talent...thank you Peter Green.

[@gilliansathanandan4634]

I saw Peter live with B B kiNG, never managed to see Paul Kossoff live sadly. A very sad day.

This, dear folks that listen to hiphop, house, rap, britney and whatever, this is music.

[@UlbrickAmplifiersUK]

heartbreaking yes......definitely.....however it was entirely drug related,,,,the LSD pushed him over the edge but the collateral damage was done by the Electro Convulsive "Therapy" he was subjected to after brandishing a shotgun at his accountants office because he kept sending him money.....PG was THE man, Encouragingly....he has improved 200 % since this clip. God Bless Peter Green.

Still admirably bluesy & soulful - one of the GOATs!!!

[@norbertjocker9504]

Are n,t we all getting older and weaker?? I enjoyed to see the bluesmaster still living and playing. The same thing happened for Johnny Winter, several people did not like him anymore because he was older and weaker. That is not correct, we have to respect these people in the same way as we did when the where young and vital. Did n,t we all wanted to be like them in gloriedays, werent we jalous because we could not what they could?? Please let us listen to the music and dream back in the days all of our idols where at their best.

[@hilaryfigg1817]

Gerald Brown, Lindsay Buckingham is a man!! Need your love so bad is just the most beautiful song of all time IMHO.

[@Bobrobbaru]

Too right man, if Peter sang, I think I would break down in tears of happiness ha!

[@rogersharman7107]

Great writer and guitarist with mental problems which plagued him all his life. Those Rythmn and Blues numbers still brilliant when heard again. Sorry to hear of his demise.

[@Beerchasers]

When Levon Helm wasn't doing so well, he toured until he just couldn't. He played drums and let his band do the rest. The point was he was a legend who was there doing what he could with what he had left. I see no difference here. If Peter Green showed up in my neighborhood. I would have a front row ticket.

[@mizrae]

Peter Green is God. Know it when he hits the strings..

[@liliamaeve]

[@derekbeauchamp2409]

I remember buying the Fleetwood Mac Greatest Hits album, in the 1970s , and it was brilliant, I played it that much, I had to go and buy it again. I love this song it.

I am only 6 years younger than Peter Green and I thought I looked old! I really used to love his playing in the old days with John Mayall and the original Fleetwood Mac. Sadly these days Peter really looks and plays completely worn out. Just a shadow of his former self. After watching some of these old "vintage" musicians playing it makes me feel much better about my musical skills as a guitarist myself.

[@geraldbrown2875]

Peter Green was the founding member of Fleetwood Mac after leaving John Mayall's blues band where he filled in after Eric Clapton left. Peter Green with Mick Fleetwood, John McVie, & Jeremy Spencer started the band Peter Green's Fleetwood Mack. After one too many LSD trips Peter started showing signs of mental illness & schizophrenia & left the band. After some personnel changes in the band resulted in the current lineup. The song Dreams was a single off the one of the best selling pop albums of all time-Rumours. The best selling pop album of all time is The Eagles greatest hits volume one. Some other albums that sold more than Rumours are- Micheal Jackson Thriller, Led Zep 4, ACDC back in black, Pink Floyd dark side of the moon. Peter Green is ranked one of the best guitarist of all time but he is a shell of himself these days because of drug abuse/mental illness. Just say no to drugs kids!
