I think people forget or don’t know about the original Fleetwood Mac with Peter Green , they were bloody awesome!!!

[@iancrawford2692]

Peter Green lifted Fleetwood Mac to a whole new level which they never achieved again. He brought a rare visceral raw spiritual honesty to the band and we should be all feel blessed that he graced the rock n roll world with his stellar talent.

[@briantaylor2.023]

@@jeremybennoch4338 No, Peter was not a member of The Yardbirds. The only band that both Eric Clapton and Peter Green played in (at different times though) was John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers. Eric Clapton joined the Bluesbreakers after he quit The Yardbirds, and when Clapton quit the Bluesbreakers, Peter was his replacement. The iconic Yardbirds guitarist trio was Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, and Jimmy Page-Peter Green was NEVER in The Yardbirds, nor did he ever play on any of their songs.

Peter Green has passed. My deepest condolences to his family and friends. The first time I heard this it was the Judas Priest cover and I thought it was great.

such a beautiful sentiment

[@Maddogg-hg5me]

The raw feel and emotion that Peter Green put into it cannot be duplicated by anyone. This song was crushingly heavy by 60's standards and is still much heavier than the Judas Priest cover. I love Priest's version of this song and they can usually elevate any song they cover to make it better but they failed to do that in this instance. Peter Green cannot be replaced or topped.

This is the proper Fleetwood Mac. Not that sickly commercial crap that they became. This is the band that I loved not the band they became. 👍👍

[@kelvynification]

They were both the proper Fleetwood Mac just different. Let’s not forget that both Green and Spenser spaced out and were basically gone. Things run their course and things change… simple as. I was a huge Green Fleetwood Mac fan, saw them live at various pubs back in the day and actually sat next to Green at breakfast at my tour managers apartment in the 80’s. I didn’t recognize him until we were introduced, a shadow of his former self, almost an empty shell. The continuation of the original Mac would have been impossible after those bloody German idiots screwed Green up.

[@TrevorBarre]

What friggin nonsense you talk. Rumours and the eponymous album are great. Blues bands had had their day by 1974 and Mick et al realised this. The tedious coda here reflects that reality.

[@alixchatelain2913]

I saw them performing this live at the Palais de Beaulieu in Lausanne Switzerland in very early February or March in 1970; to a half empty luxurious hall. The audience had been seated according to the price of our payed entry ticket but upon the realization that most of seats had remained empty because of that fact Peter Green decided to allow the whole crowd to ignore the ‘rules of the house’ and to chooze to sit wherever they wished ; needless to say the whole crowd moved up close to the performing band and in this way communicated their affection and appreciation of the group. Fleetwood Mac with Peter Green gave that night one of the best rendition of “the green Manalishi” ever; I shall never forget!

When I was a teenager back in the 80s I showed interest in learning to play guitar. The first person who gave me advice was a worker in the local youth club. He happened to be a childhood friend of the great man himself and turned us on to his playing saying that you need look no further for feel technique and tone and he was 100% right. Peter was just starting to get help with his personal issues at the time and stan took a couple of us to meet him. Being so young I didn't fully appreciate the significance or opportunity of the meeting and I remember him playing a little bit but he had a thing about cutting his finger nails and that they were so long it hindered his playing but what really did stay with me was his warm and gentle nature a really lovely soul got the feeling that he felt he wasn't worthy of his own talent but of course I could be way off

The "law of diminished returns" regarding the Beatles catalogue set in about 10 yrs. ago (though that's saying something!) Early Beatles: "I'll Cry Instead," later Beatles: "I got a feeling."

[@timboud4437]

Powerful tube amps, raw lyrics and live, one take, no wonder why Peter made so much money, what an artistic performance, never to be duplicated by current acts on prime time tv ever again, at that time you actually had to be talented to get recognized.

[@briantaylor2.023]

Ironically enough, Peter left the band because the rest of the band refused to give away their money like he was doing. This song (The Green Manalishi) is actually about an LSD-induced nightmare Peter had of a green dog with horns that relentlessly barked at him and attacked him. In his nightmare the dog symbolized the evils of money, and from that time forward, Peter wanted NOTHING to do with any money that seemed more than enough for him to survive on. Ofc a lot of his reasoning for doing some of the odd things that he did (he pulled a gun out on a guy who was trying to deliver a royalty check to him in 1977) were due to delusions and auditory hallucinations that were a part of Schizophrenia (which he was diagnosed with). Excess drug use, stress, and random genetic susceptibility will get you that (“that” as in the development of a lifelong psychotic disorder).

He's the most beautiful man I've ever seen or heard. I wish I could go back in time and stop him going to that house in Munich. We lost the most talented musician the world has ever seen.

Siân Ishmael pg was top 5 but relax he wasn’t Hendrix or Zappa. He was a fvcking beast tho

[@stevedavis8329]

Siân Ishmael the munich party didn’t wreck him. he was just mentally ill. danny kirwan, interestingly, was arguably even worse off than green, and yet there’s not much mention of him.

[@mdb60]

Steve Davis .... The Munich incident didn’t help him or Kirwan. Mick, Jeremy and John all agreed that whatever they took sent them both deeper into loopyville. That entire story of the Munich entities is trippy, their ties to Beider Meinhoff etc. no matter what, Greeny and Kirwan would have been much better off not frying what little grey matter they had left.

@@stevedavis8329 Peter was already in trouble wise before Munich. That was just the final push ditto Danny K

[@estebansantos1]

You are looking at a recording less than 10 days after the Munich party. Peter walked away from that party fine. He just exposed the rest of the band, and they were scared.

Peter Green is one of the best. . B.B King said Peter Green was the only guitarist that gave him chills down his spine

[@Nekkers1]

That's really so correct!! I love his songs sooooo much!!

[@richardjohnson7379]

Regine Baveghems well he said Peter Green’s tone sent shivers down his spine, I don’t think he meant his playing.

[@mr.brenman2132]

@@richardjohnson7379He said he's “the only living guitarist to make me sweat" and that he had "the sweetest tone I've ever heard.” That's a compliment of his playing.
