@growguyuk i realize you're being sarcastic, at least i hope so, but why would he do that? lindsey buckingham is a fantastic guitarist, and i rather doubt he's in the least envious of peter green.
Remember Green had to under take playing Clapton's guitar work "verbatim" after Clapton left like a thief in the night to form "Cream" right after the release of Mayall's "Bluesbreaker's featuring Eric Clapton" album and "nailed it"...Santana's guitar hero is Peter Green,not Clapton.Carlos covered "Black Magic Women" playing almost "Lick for Lick" Green's original in tribute. Green was the true guitar "God" but mental illness took him before Fleetwood Mac would ever take off with his leadership.
@Sumokurt1 Even though I like santana's version I and many others think peter greens just has so much more soul and depth to his guitar playing. Even santana himself agrees.
The year this was recorded is profound! Try to find in all of recorded music any human played instrument with this electrified Sustain. The science fiction instrument named the Theremin used in The Thing From Another World in the 50's for example is the closest point of reference for me. The other is Eric Clapton with John Mayall on the song Double Crossing Time where Eric performs the first presentation I can find of harmonious Sustain. Peter Green's SUPERNATURAL achieved Innovation in Beauty!
Sit between 2 speakers placed far apart and you can hear the guitar slowly rolling from one speaker to the other and back again. And, make sure they are really good speakers.
Absolutely beautiful guitar work from Peter Green, a master craftsmen at work. The tone on Gary Moore's version from Blues for Greeny is the best IMHO
This music is breathe taking... but has anyone taken notice of the video?? OMG the people the floods the music...isnt this how the blues were formed? If you havent noticed the video plaese take another look? ; ) x
I love instrumental guitar music like this, does anyone know any similar songs I can check out? Or even bands or artists that play this style? I don't mean Peter Green in general, he has other great songs like man of the world or green manalishi, but this seems to me to be almost a separate genre, it's not a song like those two, it's more just a blues guitar instrumental, is there a genre of music solely based on this?
The electric guitar rules. F*uck non-music hip hop!!! Peter Green's time in the sun was too brief. Wish that bitch would not have spiked his drink with LSD in Germany!!! That person should be executed for that crime!!
I remember the first time I heard this...way back in the late 60s.....it was electrifying, still is. If anything .... it is/was beyond human. F'N brilliant.
AAAH 1969 we would come home drunk from the NAAFI in RAF Seletar Singapore and I would have to find this track on my reel to reel Akai tape recorder and play it over and over again!!
I still have the Vinyl 33 of this album.....When I first got it I think I put the turntable needle on this track for a week straight.....I just could not believe the controlled sustain and slow phrasing...shivers!
Great Song , nice video....can't quite understand how some people don't get the connection with the video....He's not playing 'anyone else's pain' or feelings..he's playing his own..that's the Blues....if it ain't real it ain't the Blues, and damn this is REAL!
Every royalty check that Carlos Santana gets should go directly to Peter! Without Peter, Carlos would still probably be playing in a crappy little Mexican Cantina!!!

Back in the United States, how did NPR blues snobs ignore the mid-late 60's British blues movement while they were living off of the popularity of the very movement?? NPR thinks Eric Clapton is the anti christ. What they don't want to admit is that people such as John Mayall, and Peter Green were true to their cause in the blues.
i think i'm right in saying bbking was the one who said "peter greens sound was amazing he was the only white guy who ever sent a chill down my spine by playing blues"... what a perfect example of such a talent :D
@jimjim506 sometimes bbking says racist things. As much as I love the mans output there are several white guitar players that play the blues with more passion that he does.
@Skipissatan "As much as I love the mans output there are several white guitar players that play the blues with more passion that he (BB King) does."

@KidGloves2112 I was reading a paperback book by Mick Fleetwood, and he mentions how Peter Green did it, with a sustaining effect. It was more than the guitar, it was the way the amp(s) were wired I believe.
Listen to the sustain it screams like a grieving woman. How did he do it? I have a gordon smith and when you push it on to the single tap neck pickup and grind the string against the fretwire it comes close to that. I reckon he must have tapped that les paul just the same way. Thing is he had this sound in his head and then the guitar to sing it with. Danny if that is really you....thanks a million for all the feeeeeeling.
I wish the warmth of this song and and both the song and the vision of everyone smiling on the live recording of Albatross that's posted on You Tube would stay in my head instead of all the demons that seem to have taken up residence in there. I was only 10 when it was Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac and I had the Monkees shoved down my ears at the time. I need to find a way to put these tracks on a CD so I can play them all the time! Thank you for sharing your heart and soul with me.
He was given some recording time by John Mayall for his 20th birthday, a generous gesture in those days, and this was one of 2 tracks he did.
Unbelieveable playing for someone of that age. When you think Peter Green was only 23 when he walked away from it all. He laid down more great stuff in that short time than most manage in decades.
Easily number two of Top 5 guitarists of all time, only Hendrix on number one, i'd say Green easily allmost pass him , tonewise imo, but easily he's in top 3 and i give Green the second place, but tonewise, i'd say that green is number one, this gives me goose bumps i haven't got to a solo since i first time heard Gary Moore bend, this is even more better! :O
I can see Danny Kirwan's name on here, which gives me the opportunity to thank him for "Jigsaw Puzzle Blues" which he played to perfection on the "B" side of the original release of Albatross. Thank you sir, indeed. It was one of my favourite tracks at the time and remains so now. I always felt you were unfairly of the rather dominating presences of Jeremy Spencer and Peter Green, and have long wished for an opportunity to say I think you were great too. Hope this is not inappropriate here.
From the standpoint of lead guitar, it sounds to me a bit as though this recording may also have had a big influence on Santana's ongoing interpretation of Green's other composition, "Black Magic Woman".
supernatural...these pics..i guess trying to discover how overwhelming is the nature above us and in us is vs skin deep acts of ours. and as well how much strength there is in us, if it could be find and cathered together. sorry my bad english, if there was some mistakes. i love peter's music.
Just noticed that apart from the lead guitar the rest of the song sounds like calypso music, which must make this the most awesome Calypso song ever and pretty much the only good one for that matter.
This makes my 'hairs stand on end' like I bin plugged too the mains. Awsum. The live version at Ronni-Scots is just as awsum. I could not believe it was a live performance, when I first heard it. It's note perfect.
Checkout the Ronni scotts- Live... it's got incredible versions of most of Greens best songs.
His distinct tone can be heard on "The Super-Natural", an instrumental written by Green for John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers' 1967 album, A Hard Road.On this recording he plays a 1959 Les Paul Sunburst. The song demonstrates Green's control of harmonic feedback.[1] The sound is characterized by a shivering vibrato, clean, cutting tones, and a series of ten second sustained notes. These tones achieved by Green define controlled feedback on a Les Paul.[6]
@seedogreed white man's blues? lol. this song is BADASS, but don't get confused, the people in those pictures are the ones that would gave birth to what ur presently calling the 'white' man's blues.
when I was 12 my sister & her boyfriend got me a guitar--nylon string classical. The first "song" he taught me to play was some riffs from Albatross, downtuned the low e and everything. I played nothing else but that for months. Love PG then, love him now.
I've been listening to this trying to get the chords right for the backing. Can anyone confirm these for me: (key d minor) d min (2 measures), C major (half measure) to a Bb major (half measure), d min (3 measures), A minor or major?(2 measures), d min (2 measures), Bb major (1 measure), d min (1 measure), a minor (1 measure), d min (1 measure), a minor (1 measure) repeat
Hi Danny, are there any live versions of The Supernatural with either Mayall or Fleetwood Mac? He's so mindblowing, leanin' waay back..... How come you don't post Woman Of A Thousand Years? A favorite. Most every thing i heard of yours had a lot of heart. Beautiful melodies..... thank you
Got my ticket to see Greeny next month! Dont know if this gem is on the setlist but it doesnt matter because you're guaranteed a night of pure genius.
Carlos Santana has used Peter Green for over 40 years. This is the song that lauched his "style" of guitar playing, and phrasing. Meanwhile over the years Carlos Santana talks about Jimi Hendrix, or John Coltrane as his source of inspiration. Carlos doesn't talk about the meeting 4/70 in London to gain permission to play "Black Magic Woman". Carlos owes Peter Green a great debt.
Being 21 myself, and completely into 'Classic Rock', I have to say, this is amazing. It blows you away, while keeping you rooted to the spot. I'm so glad this was suggested to me. I'm a solo nut, and this jam is just the thing my heart needs. Truly, a 'Wow.....' moment. :) Thank you so much for posting!

His distinct tone can be heard on "The Super-Natural", an instrumental written by Green for John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers' 1967 album, A Hard Road.On this recording he plays a 1959 Les Paul Sunburst. The song demonstrates Green's control of harmonic feedback.[1] The sound is characterized by a shivering vibrato, clean, cutting tones, and a series of ten second sustained notes. These tones achieved by Green define controlled feedback on a Les Paul.[6]

when I was 12 my sister & her boyfriend got me a guitar--nylon string classical. The first "song" he taught me to play was some riffs from Albatross, downtuned the low e and everything. I played nothing else but that for months. Love PG then, love him now.

Carlos Santana has used Peter Green for over 40 years. This is the song that lauched his "style" of guitar playing, and phrasing. Meanwhile over the years Carlos Santana talks about Jimi Hendrix, or John Coltrane as his source of inspiration. Carlos doesn't talk about the meeting 4/70 in London to gain permission to play "Black Magic Woman". Carlos owes Peter Green a great debt.

Being 21 myself, and completely into 'Classic Rock', I have to say, this is amazing. It blows you away, while keeping you rooted to the spot. I'm so glad this was suggested to me. I'm a solo nut, and this jam is just the thing my heart needs. Truly, a 'Wow.....' moment. :) Thank you so much for posting!
