With the blues ,you not only coerce the guitar to sing you make it cry and lament with an eruption of emotion which Peter did.

[@NicolletIslandSlim]

Peter Green was simply the greatest white blues singer/guitarist who ever lived. Anyone would kill to have his vocal ability, and they'd do the same to possess his guitar skills. He could do both. No one else has come close.

Nobody played the slow blues like Peter Green. I was there at Filmore West to witness this show.

[@ruscoelee]

I saw Peter Green on his last tour of the UK. On the last song of the night, he played the guitar, the only way Peter Green can play, which was brilliantly. I could just imagine the impact he must have had when he replaced Clapton. He knocked me for six, as we say in the UK, he was on fire!

[@vmat1000]

Great!!! I saw some memorable shows in SF but missed Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac. A good friend saw them at Winterland. He wished i could have been there, though i was i was only 13 at the time. Did finally make to FE, 07 Tom Petty. Great show, too.

[@vmat1000]

Very little video seems to exist which is a shame. The drive on this guitar solo is out of this world and I think even BB King said Peter was the guitarist who could make the world stop turning.

[@kevinjones6479]

They say that playing the blues isn't difficult but to be good you have to feel it and by God doesn't he feel it and don't we feel it listening to him play it.

[@megadave1197]

Whoever told you that is talking nonsense! The blues is definitely not easy to play! The techniques required such as sustained bends, pull offs, vibrato, pre bend vibrato! Trust me the blues ain’t easy to play. Compare it with jazz or classical for instance. Non of those techniques are used. That’s just the left hand not to mention the right hand needs to learn how to alternate pick, use of fingers, thumb for percussion. Only once have you mastered that can you think about putting in feeling!!

[@vijayraman9674]

What a voice and what a guitar but mostly what feeling. Peter is always the best. Rest In Peace.

I really admire Eric Clapton at times, but I think Peter Green surpassed him in playing with more passion, his tone and phrasing just incredible, impeccable vocals as well. If Peter had never gone down that LSD road who knows what else he would have done musically, I think the fame and, as the "Green Manalishi" (greed for money), just got to him, he really just wanted to play beautiful music...which he did!

[@richardlstern8241]

We listened and were blown away by Peter's Guitar playing. All these years later, still blown away... I can play it note for note, but I'm not Peter...

Even the incredible Gary Moore did a wonderful version of this track but it just wasn't the same, the combination of this 1970 analogue sound at the Fillmore and the soulful playing not to mention the incredible vocals are unparalleled.

@@slownoman In his biography he talks about Clapton and Cream. He said that their music sounded like a noise of notes. He knew he was capable of playing the fast, endless solos but he was bored by that kind of playing. He chose what he wanted to play and didn't follow any expectations. His touch is incredible. Anyone can learn to play if they really want to but feel is something you are born with. He is one of the masters of his craft.

[@slownoman]

Having lived in the SF bay area during the amazing 66-68 period, when some of the greatest music ever made was there, one of my favorite moments was seeing the true Fleetwood Mac for the first time. I knew Green's work with Mayall, as I did Clapton's before him, and he was every bit Eric's equal at that time. Blues knows no color, but Green is one of the hues that makes it up. Just heartbreaking guitar playing, and I say that as a guitarist for the past 43 years.

[@doowahdiatribe2873]

I agree 100%. Yet isn't it interesting that Clapton, Green and Taylor were all lead guitarists in the John Mayall blues bands. If you take Mayall's first 4 LPs plus Beck's 1st LP Truth with new guy, Rod Stewart...wasn't it an amazing scene there 1966-70! Oh, and then there's the 1st Zep LP. And they all played together at one time or another and then when on to more. But, in a nutshell, it's Mr. Peter Green that shines on the brightest. I wish Randy Newman would write a song about this!
