correction

They all want to push him from behind while the man is almost laid back

[bernardint]

I am waiting for the day Peter is backed by a real good band. They're all wanting him to push him from behind. The old man's always ben laid back.

@BabeuuGladyaa791 F*ck off with your stupid spam, we don't wanna know, better listen to this great music

[102oxley]

the drummer and vocalist doesnt do peter any favours pity, peter is one of the best ever may he long continue

[Stryker146]

He was such a beautiful man. He didn't just look handsome in one photo as he said on the documentary, he looked good in all of them. He's still beautiful in a different way. I know he's been to Hell and back and it is so good to see he is doing well now. I hope he gets better and better every day and that life is good to him in every way. He's a sweet, lovely and mega-talented man. I want him to live to 110 and die smiling.

[sheilamaclean]

@Stryker146 Here here, I second that; he was a looker for sure, looks, talent, voice, maybe all too much for one man to handle.

[sheilamaclean]

@Stryker146 Hear hear (or is it here, here), I second that; he was a looker for sure, looks, talent, voice, maybe all too much for one man to handle.

[impala327]

It'd be cool if he did an album of tunes with with some interesting arrangements. Different shades of blue...

[matrags]

He seems like such a gentle,vulnerable person. I just wanna give him a big hug.

[Barnekkid]

It's great to see this guy playing guitar like he's supposed to. Now, if somebody could just get Danny Kirwan to do the same thing.

[ioriorioriorio]

Green and carlos are of the few to keep the acid- blues alive...todays stars are all flash and pomp...this shits a subtle trip

[thetubetone]

FREE GREENY FROM THE IDIOTS THAT ARE PLAYING WITH HIM HERE ON STAGE!!!

[KeesDusink]

@thetubetone

fully agree!!! That jumping monkey does not understand that something unique is happening here. It is great to see Peter Green is back on stage and really enjoying what he is doing. He deserves that, regardless he does not play anymore as before, I believe it is still all in his head, that does never disappear.

[MrRoyable]

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! Mike decides when to have haircut!Hope all greedy who are slowly killing Peter can live with them selfs!Free Greeny!

[gsasko]

That voice even with the timbre changing over the hard years is still so damn great. Peter's guitar playing is soulful and confident again. Bravo to the greatest of all the British guitarist/vocalist of all time.

[musicfreak1967]

Hi werreblues, Peter Green ist wirklich eine Legende, und Fleetwood Mac waren - jedenfalls nach meiner Meinung - nie wieder so gut wie in der Zeit, als noch Danny Kirwan, Jeremy Spencer und eben er dabei waren. Gerade hörte ich mal wieder nach Jahren die 72er "The Best of Fleetwood Mac" mit der langen 9:10-Fassung von "Oh well" - grandios!! Er war ja auch bei John Mayall's Bluesbreakern - da sehr zu empfehlen die deutsche Decca-LP "So many roads", bis heute noch nicht als CD. Keep on rockin'!

[bozozoo]

I would like to say he played with the best, but I will say the best played with him

[thetubetone]

PG needs to ditch the prat on his right....with a decent band behind him he would be back to full power again....

[mark919]

@thetubetone

LOL..I agree 100%

[MrRoyable]

@thetubetone you are right!a decent band! 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!

[Igotbadjoints]

Great stuff....!

[giblueser]

Wäre ich an Greens Stelle, würde ich diesem zweiten Gitarristen schnellstens klar machen, dieses alberne Getanze zu unterlassen.

[MorroccoM13]

Its so good to see PG playing guitar and enjoying himself. The proficiency is coming back. I just hope to see Danny back on stage someday.

[guitgeo]

Nice to hear blues played without that blown away distortion. Nice job Peter..been following your career for a LONG time {^;^}

[anycolouryouwant]

oh prettty woman!

[ohrofax]

god green.....  auch götter altern " im musikgeschäft "

pete wohnt jetzt in schweden ! treffen dort ???? ich glaube der will seine ruhe haben ihm wäre das lästig.

[2Spillner2]

oh man... if I see this I'm so sad.

In the 80's a man like Peter Green, ERic Clapton, Peter Green and co. had played in front of an audience of 20 - 50 Thousand people. Today they are playin' in front of 50 - 300 people. Really sad. But yeah, Blues is awsome today as well. The 70's were the Golden Years of the blues, not the 21st century.

Sad Truth

[gibson3524]

@2Spillner2 Have to disagree with you there. Not the 70s but THE SIXTIES were the Golden Years of White Boy Blues: Mayall & Clapton Beano album 1966, A Hard Road 1967, Fleetwood Mac's first two albums 1968, Butterfield, Bloomfield........ . And I'll prefer an intimate club to a 50,000 seater any time for a good blues show! I saw Fleetwood Mac live playing in a farm turned club in 1968 for no more than 200 people. Best concert I ever saw..................... This was before Albatross was a hit.

[ezerlab]

Peter voice soo bluesy now...

[GalerieKNOX]

PETER GREEN IST AUCH VON MIR EINER MEINER MUSIKALISCHEN GITARRENGÖTTER. ER HAT MIT SEINEM SCHWEBESOUND-SPIEL MEIN HERZ UND MEINE PHANTASIE BEFLÜGELT. .. wo kann ich mit ihm in kontakt kommen?

Wer weiß das?

[AlanSturgess]

Been a PG fan since his early days and was SO pleased to see him in concert several times after his return - including a great set with John Mayall.  Really interesting that he's gone back to his blues roots. But in this movie there are STILL traces of his early style of soloing. GREAT. So glad he's got his musical life back.

[duncanstpt]

He looks like Aunt Jemima. Does he make pancakes at his concerts?

[Snit54]

@duncanstpt Douche bag

[sixaxle]

This guy is so deep...there is NO bottom to his talent! god bless ya Peter, and thanks for all these years of soul and sweetness...

[61richgear]

it would be so cool if peters nephew joe green could play alongside him.

[classicpjb]

blues

[MrRoyable]

Why ask the band about Peters points of view? Peter can speak for him self!!!!!!

[isabellaexp]

wow that song the other guy sang was not even worthy of being there,crap!! all apologies to peter.

[tomthefunky]

It's obvious this guitarist playing with Greeny was never exposed to Steve Cropper. Rule one in Steve Cropper's book of great guitar playing? Don't jump around like an idiot.

[KeesDusink]

You found the right words how I think about this.!

[twoslices]

He always was the master of economy.

[SIRONEDRAGON]

cool

[amiramx]

frank zappa said, to make music is like f^#cking.

once you know hoe, you never forget it.

Yeah, PG go on!

first chance i have, i come to your concerts!

[limeginger]

So glad he's still playing!

But why did that guy play Sweet Marie, that Peter Green clearly didn't know?

[Derwisch]

Green ist DIE Gitarre.

Oft todgesagt aber er lebt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[realspoerk]

wenn nicht Peter Green ..wer dann????

[zurichstudios]

I would love to see Danny K

[Carly1969able]

There where a lot of great guitar players in the white blues days of the 60ties, Peter is the one whos the most underrated in mine opinion, not only for his guitar playing and (brown) voice but also the songs that he wrote, much more than others wholl became world stars just because theyll probably have better managers or spend less time on dope.

You can find a nice tribute on YouTube to Peter by a Dutch band called THE BLUESFUSE, with a live video.

[twoslices]

Not underrated in the least!! He was and still is rated as the greatest white blues guitarist of them all by many.

[brett1965ge]

Hab ihn gerade in HH live gesehen. Ich war tief beeindruckt. An der Gitarre nach wie vor einzigartig. Vielleicht ein bißchen eigenwillig der Gute, aber hey...der hat Fleetwood Mac gegründet und "Oh well" geschrieben.

I saw him live in Hamburg. He is a little bit strange, but still an awesome musician.

My deepest respect to Mr. Peter Green.

Btw. his band is very good as well.

[AvaCamalla]

peter green is a beautiful man ...thanks for this...He alone, was fleetwood mac...they ended when he left...The true genius Go Pete go x

[MrRoyable]

@AvaCamalla @DirtyDeck that is same who pisses Peter off too!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!

[uwemusic]

Liebe Leute, trotz Alkohol spielt Peter gut liebe Gruesse Uwe Blues

[66Quimby]

GO PETE GO!

[zerominusminus]

Wow!!! This is one of the most fun postings I've seen in so long. And it sounds sooooo good. Hooray for Peter Green.

[regibold123]

He looks like he's having more fun here than he did the whole time he was with Nigel and the Splinter Group. Haven't heard him this alive since his Fleetwood Mac days.

[seymorduncan]

chica je chica!!!

[66Quimby]

Peter - Please come to St Louis and play the blues by to the River! IT is fantastic to see you playing again!

[midislseguy]

good to see you smiling and having fun ! Hats off to you Peter !

[glider666]

Lieber werreblues

Danke für das Video, deine Beschreibung dazu trifft's auf den Punkt, ist mir vor ein paar Jahren genau gleich gegangen:

Einerseits sehr grosse Erwartungen, andererseits eine gewisse Skepsis, was da wirklich noch kommt.

Und am Ende einfach eine riesige Freude über die gute Musik, die Präsenz und Ausstrahlung von Peter Green. Unterm Strich wurden alle Erwartungen übertroffen.

[cruuuuuzz]

pete your wonderful.... god bless ya!

[SSBK]

Thanks for posting this.

[droogless]

Yes.. he really is back. His playing is better than its been for years.

[EZIOTHEMASTER]

He was the best blues player in Europe and he's still a great player.

[vanu49]

We all know about this legend and inspite of the fact that his playing is different from the late sixties, its good to see that Peter is enjoying himself.

So much tks for posting.

[tenderberry]

Any whispers on whether a tour is on the cards.I know he is playing the Cornbury festival and Dingwalls in Camden this month,but has anyone heard if he is heading north.

[MrRoyable]

[JoelleJam]

It is so great to see Peter's playing so lyrical / creative / fluid. I saw him about 8-10 years ago, and while it was terrific to see him (period), his playing is light years ahead of where it was then.

[chiliD322]

Now there's a first...hearing Peter Green play on a Bob Dylan song. ("Absolutely Sweet Marie")

[tdcharles1962]

This footage is interesting on several counts. Peter looks relaxed and is enjoyng himself. His guitar work is fluid, more than it appeared to be during the time of the Splinter Group. TO my knowledge,  has rarely played a Fender Telecaster and Albert King's 'Pretty Woman'. The latter could do with some more bite, in the manner of his mentor, Albert King, but one must accept that his playing is mellow these days.

[sleepy4x]

I was lucky to see him 5 days later in cologne. During the whole gig he used a les paul goldtop with p90 pickups (epiphone). In my opinion this suited much better to his playing and the sound was fuller and had more power.

I was very happy that I could be there this evening.

[freboso]

Pete's playing well - great to see him playing again
