Peter Green...................Founder of 'Fleetwood Mac'.....! Songs like "Man of the world" and "let me tell you about my life". Outsold the Beatles...............Surely, Mr "bullshitdetective" this man deserves a little politeness? By the way vacuum head; I also thought Gary Moore was outstanding. However, he's no longer with us.
@bullshitdetective why can't you detect the crap coming out of your own arseformouth Peter Green is THE greatest BLUES guitarist to come out of Britain. Not for speed or technique but for soul.
@bullshitdetective1 The late Gary Moore made a whole CD of Peter Green's blues stuff as a tribute to him. He owned Peter Green's Les Paul guitar for a while too.
Enjoy your Gary Moore CD's and vids and stop watching movies you don't like, I would say. Why spilling your time? There are over a million video's on the tube which you probably won't like as well. Look for the things you like instead of playing the bullshitdetective. Life is to short for that :-)
Yes you are correct and more so, I actually think Gary Moore (if he was alive today) would be ashamed to read such a comment about Peter Green as he was a fan of Peter's music too.
bullshit detective is as dumb as hen shit man, he sits at his computer day in thinking up dumb ass shit to say, 9 times out of 10 he makes his self look dumber than he is, which is not hard, because he is as dense as a 9 bob bit, his head is like a block of wood man, knock knock type of thing, anyone home, not really like
@bullshitdetective1 Gary Moore was great guitar player. Unfortunately like Joe Bonamassa he never found his own kind of music. I mean he played almost everything: rock, blues, pop. And he had not heart for any of these...Peter is a God.
@bullshitdetective1 Hey do you want to know who was one Gary Moores greatest if not the greatest influence.... Peter Green. If it wasn't for Peter Greens influence Gary Moore would have been just another fast player without feeling .
So glad to see Peter playing again after all of these years, and no one rocked a '59 Les Paul like this cat did! I wish we heard more about how Danny Kirwin is doing. There doesn't seem to be much information about him other than he is in an institution in England. What a sad story.
Love this version. The fill chords sound really bluesy - he still has the feel like very few others Ive heard. check my youtube area for a few Peter Green covers by myself.
This is outright sensational good palying considering what he has gone trough. It's sad to think of all ECT treatments he had to undergo. That really fuck up his brain. ECT is like being raped and people keep telling you not to be upset, that it wasn't that bad.
This one actually sound much closer to Freddie King version than the one Peter covered with Mayall. I like them both. Peter still got that smooth touch. He is easily the most underrated guitarist of all time.
Always great to see Peter enjoying his playing again, so thanks for posting this, but why did you keep panning away from him? Was it just to show us that the other guitarist was acting like a complete dick?
Oh this is so good, I saw Peter Green when he was with Splinter Group and most of his parts were played by other band members which was very sad to see. I am so delighted therefore that he's still performing, and playing well too.
@djangolad No! What it means is that to tame a Les Paul, you have to have the strength and belief in yourself that comes with being young. Anybody can play a Strat and make it sound good, as it is a devine tone. BUT, to make a LP sing, you have to master it, and most old gits can't take the fight anymore. (Mind you, I am nearly 60, and I still play LP's, as nothing sounds as good!)
@vazon69 Rubbish! All guitars are. is a plank of wood with some wire to strum on. (See Sea Sick Steve play his junk yard spank plank) I have heard worthless bits of plywood sing like an angel when put through a Marshall stack. Likewise a vintage Gibson SG sound like a goose farting in the fog!
Peter cancelled tour because tricked on tour by his greedy solicitor!His fingertips are hurting and fingernails falling off!That is why Mike takes him to polish his nails!Dont ask for Peter on tour!They stressed him too much!Solicitor and all greedy people are cause of Peters bad health!Peter is not allowed to live the life he wants! Hope all greedy who are slowly killing Peter can live with them selfs!Free Greeny!
@MrRoyable That is terrible, I am so upset. We were friends and I always hoped that he would be okay. He has a manager and lives at home, are they not caring for him?
@deborahknight20 No ! they do not care! Sqeeze the last drop blod of him!Solicitor as manger directing Peters life when to do gigs,whom to see,directing Mike to take Peter to have his haircut! There are peoplecommenting nailpolish on yt! Peter said him self that it wasMikes idea!
@deborahknight20 Peter cancelled tour because tricked on tour by his greedy solicitor!His fingertips are hurting and fingernails falling off!That is why Mike takes him to polish his nails!Dont ask for Peter on tour!They stressed him too much!Solicitor and all greedy people are cause of Peters bad health!Peter is not allowed to live the life he wants! Hope all greedy who are slowly killing Peter can live with them selfs!Free Greeny!
boy wouldn't I love to see him live! thanks alot one of the best guitarists alive... kind of lost his voice from the way it used to be. what a talent though.
@bullshitdetective1 How about you read about Peter Green's life, watch the videos of when he was at his peak, and then re-think your comment. Not only was/is he one of the best guitarists there's been, he's far better than Gary Moore and I'd like to see anyone play this well at this age specially after the life Green's had.
@bullshitdetective1 Why dont you just ask Gary Moore what he thinks about Peter Green? His "Blues For Greeny" album pretty much tells you what his answer would be!! BFG is a great album by the way.
That was pretty good and i enjoyed it. Peter isn`t the man he used to be, non of us can be young again. My hands are getting knackered and the rest isn`t far behind but i don`t mind to much because i still love Music.
It`s obvious he`s having fun here and thats Good.............!
I love how him and BB King, even though they can't stand through a whole set, sit through a whole set and are still showing those that jump through a whole set how it's done.
Nice to see Peter enjoying himself...but I remeber seeing Fleetwood Mac in 1968 when it was just him Jeremy Mick and John in a blues club in Kidderminster then again in 1968 at a blues festival in Droitwich when they introduce Danny Kirwan, Peter just let Danny take the stage with some brilliant solos, but peter remains the best blues player this country has ever produced or ever will,his touch and feel has never been matched...some guitarist can play faster but you need the feel for the blues
@rog: The only boomer-generation bluesman who went further into the feeling than his mentors. You can't fit into everyday life after you've seen the blues darkness. Robert Johnson couldn't, Otis Rush couldn't, & Peter couldn't. Clapton put the brakes on his descent into the blues after '70, & became a blues-businessman, like his idol BB King. Show-blues's fine: EC & BB have the most enviable of lifestyles, but it ain't the same as the insanity of the real thing.
it's a real miracle and so *great* to see after all that Peter Green has been through - Jeremy Spencer also back - maybe one day Danny Kirwan as well?
Seeing this film of Peter provokes mixed emotions....happiness that he feels well enough to get up and play, tinged with great sadness that he is clearly not the man he was; I prefer to remember the guitarist that could move me to tears with his playing. Thank you for all that unbelievable music Mr Green.
@clean3 How do you think it feels for those of us who knew the brash and vibrant young man that once told John Mayall, after Clapton's departure, "why that guitarist you have, he's no good; I'm better than that." And he was. Now, playing a belly banjo in a used guitar store in SF, he looks up and sees three posters on the wall. To the left, Jimi Hendrix, to the right Eric Clapton. Of the middle poster, he asks: "Is that me?" "Yes," I answer, "that's you, Peter." Or is it?
I reckon Eric lost it too, all he has left is professionalism. Same with BB. It's what happens: brilliant young men either die or lose their edge. Greeny lost all those years developing professionalism, but I think he's lost less of his zing than Clapton or King. And his voice is better than it used to be!
The legend of Peter Green losing his magic is obscuring the reality that almost everyone does. The only one I listen to much who is as great as he ever was is Buddy Guy.
Smiling n playing the electric-nice! I was ready to be saddened again. Still miss that incredible voice tho. Voice, playing, writing-who's ever been more talented?
I saw this line up at the Komedia in Bath last night. Great show. Peter is obviously pretty frail and seemed to need a lot of encouragement; but after a slowish start he gained confidence and gave us a real treat. The sweetest blues guitarist ever.
Wow, this is the best I've seen him in years, bless him he's really having a go there, bending & throwing in some real licks! And having a good time not being bashed around by the other players he's been lumbered with over recent years. Gotta love him. He was streets ahead of absolutely everyone on the highly dubious English Blues scene. Cool to see this : )
Doesn't matter what he plays as long as he plays! He doesn't give a Damm! People who can play don't really care--what therere trying to say through the instrument comes through regardless of the guitar. Play on Peter!!!
i love gary moore. top ten guitarist of all time. ability is no. 1. peter green is great. too bad for the mental/drug problems. many just did not know the potential problems back then. he sold his les paul to gary.
He has been through Hell and back, is it any suprise he has picked up a few scars along the way? He is still with us and for that we should be thankful.
He's still alive, and playing. Michael Bloomfield (RIP) has been dead for 29 years. So it goes to say that one drug makes you crazy, and you can slowly recover, while the other kills you dead in your prime.
Top man Peter Green.-may God bless and keep you always. So good-- that class is still there so strong. I agree that the big fat hairy beardy git in the Splinter group really got in the way back then.
@bullshitdetective1 he is five years older than me you idiot and you would be well F*****d if you had gone through what he had. I know because I was there. Idiot.
What a pleasure to see him smiling and playing with energy. He plays better now than in the splinter group. I had seen him when he started his come back in the nineties and he seemed completely lost so that I thought he couldn't go on... What a chance he went on !
@TheBigduckhead i dont like the splinter group begous that fatt guitar players was doing al the solo,s .but this rocks i only hope green wil pick up one of his gibson lespaul,s again;-)
@strum4tone Absolutely. Have seen him several times over the last few years as he's grown both in confidence and skill. Really sad to see at first, but now he's really great ... not the same as he was at the start, but definitely back.
what id give to see peter green, mick fleetwood, john mcvie, jeremy spencer and danny kirwin together again just for a one off! would be awesome to hear them do man of the world or something
Simply put my friends...Greene ..'was' the best evr blues guitarist....back in the day..just ask BB King....ANYWHO....unfortunately...Greeney went the way of Sid Barret..in that, a few too many acid trips, etc ..but his blues playing ..had many times more 'soul' than many of the Legends..including Clapton, forst and foremost..and he was right ON PAR ..BAR NONE..with JIMI..as far as Blues is concered..IMO ..so f you all! hahaha
I know everyone is trying to be nice, and of course, it is so wonderful that Greenie is still hear and playing, but.....his playing is not even close to 40 years ago. I would put him in the top ten of guitarists of all time and now (today's playing) I put him in about 457,872rd place. Sorry, but that is what I hear.
The NEARER to the roots LIVE - the CLOSER to the FEELING! He played with quite a few big cats earlier as you might know! Technically there might be 457,853 better blues guitarist's nowadays but still, as mayor Quimby states: "Give the master a break,"
He's pretty much playing note for note the original version by Freddie King that's slightly dissapointing. I seem to recall he made a better version earlier on in his career.
Come on, he made a "better version" you say earlier on in his career. Yea, about 42 years earlier on. Give the master a break, I think he sounded great.
I'm sitting here with tears in my eyes. This is the best playing I've heard from Peter in years. Thank God he is still with us! Long live this legendary player! Thanks so much for posting!
I think that Peter is playing better and looking better since the Splinter Group ended. He is enjoying himself alot more nowadays and has more confidence in himself as a musician.
Thankyou Peter Green.

Doesn't matter what he plays as long as he plays! He doesn't give a Damm! People who can play don't really care--what therere trying to say through the instrument comes through regardless of the guitar. Play on Peter!!!

i love gary moore. top ten guitarist of all time. ability is no. 1. peter green is great. too bad for the mental/drug problems. many just did not know the potential problems back then. he sold his les paul to gary.

He has been through Hell and back, is it any suprise he has picked up a few scars along the way? He is still with us and for that we should be thankful.
Punorss 2 years ago
He's still alive, and playing. Michael Bloomfield (RIP) has been dead for 29 years. So it goes to say that one drug makes you crazy, and you can slowly recover, while the other kills you dead in your prime.

Top man Peter Green.-may God bless and keep you always. So good-- that class is still there so strong. I agree that the big fat hairy beardy git in the Splinter group really got in the way back then.

What a pleasure to see him smiling and playing with energy. He plays better now than in the splinter group. I had seen him when he started his come back in the nineties and he seemed completely lost so that I thought he couldn't go on... What a chance he went on !

@strum4tone Absolutely. Have seen him several times over the last few years as he's grown both in confidence and skill. Really sad to see at first, but now he's really great ... not the same as he was at the start, but definitely back.

Simply put my friends...Greene ..'was' the best evr blues guitarist....back in the day..just ask BB King....ANYWHO....unfortunately...Greeney went the way of Sid Barret..in that, a few too many acid trips, etc ..but his blues playing ..had many times more 'soul' than many of the Legends..including Clapton, forst and foremost..and he was right ON PAR ..BAR NONE..with JIMI..as far as Blues is concered..IMO ..so f you all! hahaha

I know everyone is trying to be nice, and of course, it is so wonderful that Greenie is still hear and playing, but.....his playing is not even close to 40 years ago. I would put him in the top ten of guitarists of all time and now (today's playing) I put him in about 457,872rd place. Sorry, but that is what I hear.
soltisimba 2 years ago
The NEARER to the roots LIVE - the CLOSER to the FEELING! He played with quite a few big cats earlier as you might know! Technically there might be 457,853 better blues guitarist's nowadays but still, as mayor Quimby states: "Give the master a break,"

He's pretty much playing note for note the original version by Freddie King that's slightly dissapointing. I seem to recall he made a better version earlier on in his career.

Come on, he made a "better version" you say earlier on in his career. Yea, about 42 years earlier on. Give the master a break, I think he sounded great.

I think that Peter is playing better and looking better since the Splinter Group ended. He is enjoying himself alot more nowadays and has more confidence in himself as a musician.
