  • At least Snowy is being faithful to Peter's feel and his style ...

    It is a job well done,

    Thank You Snowy,

    Peter would be proud !

  • Haha, Peter Green, Eric Clapton, and John Mayall and otehrs all jammed together when they were young. They probably all influenced each other. No need to compare they all do their thing good when it comes to blues. I'm thankful for the blues they all did and do. Good post

  • Otra magnifica canción, gracias, ........la música suena mejor si la has puesto tú.

    

  • I'm convinced after all these years that there is no greater composer and performer than Peter Green in the blues scene. Sorry for Eric Clapton, though he is a great performer too, but Peter Green is really the only man with such an incredible guitar-idiom and such amazing compositions like Albatross and Oh, Well, Black Majic Woman, Need your love so bad, Man of the world, he absolutely deserve a statue in the hall of fame, or wherever. In any case in my heart, So sorry to see him today

  • peter green was a fruit basket when this album came out in 79 he wasnt doing any of the solos

  • @kptran98 What the FUCK are you posting here ??? Who else, you dope?

  • @seedogreed snowy white, session guitarist, is playing you fucking idiot.

  • @kptran98 White is indeed listed among contributors to that album, and according to Wikipedia, he " ...contributed some of the lead guitar work on the album, since Green was not yet fully comfortable with his return to recording after his long break.". But can you tell us how you're certain that the solo is White's and not Green's? It sounds enough like the latter that I'd like to know for sure.

  • too bad the soloist here isnt Peter Green

  • The blues can't possibly get any better then this

  • Can anyone tell me which album this version is from? It's so much better than his FM one. Such an amazing blues man

  • shiverin

  • This song has no business being finite.

  • I dont think I could have put it better, by the quote by Immylover. He sounds so wounded in this song. Russ from Stalybridge, England.

  • Hauntingly beautiful solos,melodic and vibrato surpasses Clapton,goes into the silence of night,into loneliness,into the realms of God,past the Milk wayHera into the backbone of night.

  • Hauntingly beautiful solos,melody and vibrato better than Clapton,reaching the depths of loneliness,the stillness of night,beyond the milky way of Hera past the backbone of night,into the realm of God,grew up with this and still believe in it,bless you Peter

  • Search Gary Moore drowning in tears, peter green and the blues from gary moore, aint nobody doing it better

  • hmm thats weird. has he made an other version with fleetwood mac?? i like that better but this is ok aswell.

  • love peter green, but don't say he's all there is. what about paul kossoff?

  • @skydog6653 Sure, both Peter Green and Paul Kossoff. I would only add Danny Kirwan, especially for sake of his vibrato.

  • peter green knows that slow is beautiful. no rush. its the journey n not the rush to reach to destination that makes travel so exciting.

  • Peter Green and Garry Moore is the only two i really feel with as they play the gituar, really good

  • the blues is all about space and timing, there is no better than PG. The almighty voice may have faded but the talent remains... Anyone who likes this needs to look up (on Youtube) his version of Got a Mind to Give up Living, its off the scale, voice and guitar.

  • this song just blew my mind!!!!

  • awwhh this is sensational! absolutely breathtaking!!

  • This is a stunning version.

    Which album, exactly is this from.? as there seems to be a difference of opinion looking at the comments.

  • I saw this guy at Farnham Arts Colledge in 1967. Sat and floor on the floor and wondered how much bluesey shit could come from a nerdy looking white guy.

    Remember all my life.

    Gaz.

  • I sat and watched him at a Farnham Art School  gig in 1967. What a sound this guy had.I will never forget it.

    Gaz.

  • Green and David Gilmore came up around the same time. The similarities in their styles is obvious even if their music genre are different.

  • One of those songs where it doesn't mather how fast you play, but instead how much SOUL you HAVE!!!!! Peter... God bless you!!!

  • This is fuckin kool ass kick ass track

  • wow......... what a pretty, moody, showstopper

  • just listen........................­........

  • strange! No wha-wha, no pedals, no echo-plex, no overdubbing, no nothing-just a guitar, an amp and pure genius!

  • How strange! No wha-wha, no pedals, no echo-plex, no rigs, no nothing, just a guitar, an amp and pure genius!

  • I'm a die-hard Led Zeppelin fan and honestly say that the only guitarist that brought me to tears is the legend PETER GREEN ....

  • Can't get enough from this guy

    keep em comming ..

    those greater tunes

  • When peter replaced clapton in bluesbreakers they called him the green god, no wonder why this is the blues with a hounting feel.

  • Not similar, but I like to think of it as as the Gilmour effect....

    Listen to supernatural, prepare to be moved!

  • Klasse

  • @Brattamaniac

    ja  echt klasse =)

    so müsste man spielen können

  • The Maestro. No-one, and I mean no-one sounds like the Green Man.

  • wow,... beautiful sound and pics

  • fool no more

  • old amazing blues feeling...

  • Fabulous blues

  • Stunning! Some of the best blues guitar work ever recorded.

  • i spent and still spending nights and nights hearing these tunes...

  • The older version(much better!)can also be found on the "The Original Fleetwood Mac" .It takes them a few takes to get it right but it's an amazing version.

  • I see soo many comments about how this is from the "in the skies" album...altho this version is from the in the skies album its worth it to note that peter allan wrote the song back in the day and re did it for "in the skies"

    You can hear it more in its original form on the live at the bbc sessions...different yet brilliant in it's own way...

  • sounds like the vocals have been time shifted to a lower pitch

  • While Mr. Green's Magic Guitar Gently Weeps !

  • Great song great artist and amazing performance!! I heard it so many times, but every day i am thurtsy to deth for it.

  • Yes you only hear what YOU can understand ;-)

  • The way he plays can talk to a person. Amazing, wow anybody else feel that?

  • Yes, I know the feeling. I say the same thing about Robin Trower.

  • @ezfreez09 definately man,its the feeling of being alive.chills jus running all over your body.i love it

  • PETER FUCKING GREEN. i cant even wrap my head around the awesome

  • He is so awesome. How do I get that TONE!

  • Grab some traditional guitar, and an old amp, then play from the heart.

  • I've found dreaming works

  • Beautiful. Thanks for posting.

  • Shinybald36, I don't think he's saying that VanHalen is any less talented per se, just that since the early 80's we've been bombarded with flashy and virtuoso playing that has made many guitar fans forget the power of the soul, and the mojo of the note. Hearing songs like this remind us of that fact. This song is amazing.

  • Nicely stated " the mojo of the note" rock on 'vader.

  • One of most amazing songs ever,  the whole In The Skies album just blows my mind. Thanks Peter!

  • Comment removed

  • :O)))))))))))))))))

  • WOW! Is that nexts door dog howling? or is it on the track? BRILLIANT.

  • WOW, is that next doors howling or is it on the track?... BRILLIANT!

  • slow but powerfull

  • i just had a Van Halen fan in tears. I played him this and told him its the notes you play not how many you can cram into a riff for flashness. He was totally overwhelmed by Green's playing

  • "its the notes you play not how many you can cram into a riff"

    sir you exemplify the essence of music in a concise and brilliantly said dissertation

  • the notes you play AND how you play them.

  • they are too totally different styles, besides have you ever seen hendrix tab nobody complains about how many notes he plays, if you don't dig van halen, cool, but don't give us that bullshit philosphy, if somebody sucks they suck not matter how many or how few notes they play

  • @jag555y Well fuck, i guess if a Van Halen fan can get it then anyone can, right?

  • @jag555y Give me a break, would ya?

  • @jag555y Asshole! 

  • @biggibson49 van halen is shit mate just like that dragonforce shit it sounds like he is making his guitar throw up , now peter green thats real guitar playing.

  • @LongLiveTheBlues Spot on my man couldn't have put it better myself ,fucking shredding nonsence. Think proper guitarist should check out the Like's of BB King, Muddy Waters, all the King's for that matter, Mk, John Lee Hooker, Muddy waters.

  • @jag555y yes i was thank you bill and....bill...i love you

  • nice

  • I love the version on the Original Fleetwood Mac cd. It is awesome, even with all the false starts(was fun to hear his studio banter back then)

  • tak , tak nie tylko niebo malarstwo rowniez

  • made me cry.......

  • Awesome, I stumbled across Peter Green's music today, and I like it alot. Thanks

  • Be sure to look for Peter's "The Stumble" ;-)

  • Hey thanks alot.

  • I love this one....just bought the album a year ago...the dreamiest Blues ever...yes what BlackMerta said..

  • I bought this album about 20 years ago The price of the album times 10 is worth it for this song alone. I love slow blues and this is the most beautiful, understated, and elegant piece of playing (and singing) ever. I also have an earlier version of this song played live by Peter Green with Fleetwood Mac, and this is way better. The way he builds tension in his playing is just stunning. The solo is amazing in its subtlety and beauty.

  • I think this is great but the power of his playing in the earlier version is awesome! This is more chilled!

  • t heard it four times by the in-flight music between Helsinki -Osaka of finair.

    Thank you.

  • this is awesome! beautiful video for a beautiful song:)) thank you

  • This is IT !!!

  • This has got to the dreamiest blues guitar playing of all time.

  • ça me replonge une trentaine d'année en arrière,les potes de l'époque que j'ai malheureusement perdu de vue. Ben,zab,Loïc, pascal et les autres....Nos soirées.... Nos week ends......

  • WOW!!!!!!  PETER rocks!

  • this is phonomonal

  • From Snow White's own discography:

    1979: Recording with Peter Green LP: In the Skies (PVK Records)

    Tracks: In the Skies (lead guitar), Slabo Day (lead guitar), A fool no more (rhythm guitar), Tribal Dance (rhythm guitar), Funky Chunk (rhythm guitar), Just for you (rhythm guitar), Apostle (rhythm guitar).

    The Lead is clearly Peter Green.

  • Well said Sparker. Snowy has said time and time again that Pete played lead on this and yet still the myth persists.

  • should be in A#m... but its in Em?!?!? the original fleetwood mac. so fuking good!

  • nah. i was a bit confused with the key but its in em he starts the licks on box 2 of the e chord on 7 fret.

  • WOW

  • remember 30 years ago..sacre coure dortmund..

  • its all peter green on lead .... wats the chrord progression in this/ key

  • WOW - thank you for posting this!

    (Both for the lad and the music).

  • This Song is from ín the skies 79 i think so

  • It is, I used to have it.

  • Your land looks majestic.

  • Very good. Love the blues. never heard it before, really like it alot.

  • originaly..What album was this from??

    (Like when did this song first come out??)

  • Understated brilliance - magic!

  • Just to get a fresh comment on this...

    This is just the greatest of Blues you will ever miss to hear...

  • Just Peter Green's awesome gift in action

  • widzę tu polskie korzenie P Zielonego .Tylko u nas niebo ma taką barwę.Dobra robota therapydude

  • This wasn´t best of him. But He´s absolutely one of the greatest,too few knows his fantastic guitar.

  • se nao existisse peter green não haveria fleetwood mac

  • I met Peter Green in Vermont, after he left the Blues Breakers and before he and Mick Fleetwood started Fleetwood Mack. He is the one of the greatest guitarists of all time! His haunting licks and awesome technique places him in a catagory all his own. I hope he gets well and plays a tour again. Wahpoose....Goddard College Utopia 1970

  • wheeping mellow sweet disaster of mind

    yeah !

  • Hey JeffSolidRock,

    Snowy Whita can play, I know that. But this one is pure Peter Green!!! I have the LP. Snowy is on rythm guitar.

  • beautiful beautiful playing. it makes you cry.

  • This is an unbelievable craftship on guitar!!

    Top 10 of all time blues.

    Nice pics!

  • god blessed the blues!!

  • I'm Not a fool. I feel I'm all right, when the Blues is around !

    Thanks, Good stuff

    Urban

  • Is there any nicer things than a slow blues on the verge of stopping completely? There was another pretty tune, an instrumental, on that album. Anyone remember its name?

  • I think its "Slabo Day"

  • Nice try, but it was apostle I had in mind.

  • Guitar pure Snowy White. Peter Green only vocal because his brother Michael wrote the lyrics.

  • so cool, so great, all my past when i was youngest. Where are evenings when we played guitare at beach. Where are you ben, loïc, pascal and others..........Thank you peter!

  • Snowey Great guitar, Peter, lovely soulful melancholy vocal. Tempo just perfect. Whole feel of this is so poignant, and so sad. Peter Green, you have given so much.

  • Snowy White played rhythm guitar on this track, not lead.

  • so very very cool

  • Thank you for posting this fantastic video. :)

  • and thanks for sharing the number...cheers!

  • WOW!!!!!This is My Kind Of Vibe!!!!!Beautiful:))))))Peace and Happiness!!!!!

    Oh and Hey Jenscool How Could You Compare BB King to anyone,Every Musician Has There Own Style and Are all Gifted with there Own Talent:)long Live The Blues:)

    RLR

  • Just beautyfull !

  • This cut is from Peter Green's solo album "In the Skies. Amazing album. Very moody, very special, not for everybody. Released in 1979, Reg Isadore (Trower) plays drums. One of my all-time favorite albums. Peter Green . . .

  • i travelled 600miles to buy that vinyl ..

    but it worth..

    Snowy is the most stylist blues quitarist..

    that's why he played is so much bands..

  • Snowy White actually played guitar on some of Peters early solo albums ( Peter grew his finger nails and retreated from the world ).

    Snowy is probably THE most underestimated british blues guitarist. He's played in Roger Waters band for years now.

  • thankyou for posting this!

  • a beautiful song to chill to.

  • Eric who?

  • oh man,....

  • anyone know where i can find the tabs...love to try it..cant find them..i found the words only..thanks..great bluesman....

  • Peter Green was much better than B.B.King, said B.B. King himself about Green!

  • I didn't like the blues until I heard Peter Green. Now I understand what I've been missing out on. Thanks for the picture montage to go with it. Much appreciated

  • the best song he's ever played. Cold sweat's running down my back.

  • probably not the best but near to it. Brilliant blues

  • found it 1978 in the skies

  • from the album *in the skies* by peter green

  • Wat album is this from ?thanks

  • Fleetwood Mac could've been one of the greatest bands of all time. Then one of the greatest guitarists of all time left.

  • what do you mean "could have?"......they were

  • Ultimatly AGREE!!!

  • Peter green is one of most underated blues guitarists.

  • I always thought Green was one of the best blues singers and guitarist. Great stuff
