Oh wow. Love this song. My dad use to play this all the time. 🔥🔥 and my dad's friend use to own a record store. He still has a whole basement of old records. He always had a lil tattoo on the tip of his pinkie like a lil ring with notches so I ask him one day what it was. He then told me that they use to use their lil pinkie or a pencil or whatever to wind up cassette tapes and when you used your pinkie, it made this lil indention kinda from the hole in the cassette so he got a tattoo of it like what it looked like 😭🤣 pretty cool. Just thought about that lol hagd 🤙🏼
The Original Fleetwood Mac. Peter Green also wrote Black Magic Woman, that made Santana lots of money. You haven't heard this song until you hear part 2 which is a classical style guitar, very beautiful, and Trippy. Check it out on the album, "Then Play On" th-cam.com/video/uRFvsLlC_ZM/w-d-xo.html
Love this song! Nice find in the record store. Stevie Nicks joined w Lindsey Buckingham. Story goes, Mick Fleetwood (drummer) was carousing recording studios in LA, overheard Lindsey playing and was blown away. MF asked to meet LB bc he was looking for a new lineup after Peter Greene and others had split. He asked Lindsey to join, and Lindsey said he would but only if his gf Stevie Nicks could join, too. Eventually, Lindsey and Stevie broke up (after she jumped Mick Fleetwood’s bones), and she told a heartbroken Lindsey, “you better not break up this gig. We’re going out there and playing.”
There were roughly four era's of FM. Peter Green era, Danny Kirwan era, Kirwan/Bob Welch era and Buckingham- Nicks era. All had Mick Fleetwood and John McVie in them. My favorite is the Danny Kirwan era.
Hi Trippy, I think I may have misled you about the formation of the group. What I should have said was that Peter Green coined the name of group Fleetwood Mac after the drummer (Mick Fleetwood) and the bass guitarist (John McVie). Also, if you like this guitar playing and Peter's vocals then check out another hit of their's during this era called "Green Manalishi"
There was quite a few incarnations of Fleetwood Mac through the years. Each era had its own hits. The studio version of this is 9 minutes, two seconds long. There was a shorter radio edit but the long version probably got played on the radio in its day more than Black Dog. Green wrote and Fleetwood Mac recorded the original version of Black Magic Woman, a big hit later for Santana. Sentimental Lady and Hypnotized were two more hits from the Bob Welsh era that were great songs. Stevie and Lindsey were a duo called Buckingham Nicks before they joined Fleetwood Mac in 1975.
Peter Green was the real deal. Your record store takes me back to my friends and me go to the city no money to buy anything but get into that booth with the album you hope you would get for Xmas and bday combined! Oh Well so cool a track loved him.
Yes there was a female singer in the group and what a singer too, her stage name was Christine Perfect and she used to be in a band called Chicken Shack that had a number one hit in the UK with "I'd Rather go Blind". Christine left CS to join FM, she later married John McVie and known as Christine McVie and later when Stevie Nicks joined performed together. I had the good luck to meet all members of the band in 1969/70 at a concert in Birmingham at the biggest public house in Europe at the time which was at the Swan at Yardley. I was a pot boy / glass collector and had to clear out their dressing room, as I went in they welcomed me and we had a bit of banter (I was very shy in the presence of adults that could do something) and I asked for their autographs which they all signed and Christine signed my Bar drinks order pad with "To Simon, Thank you", I asked what the thank you was for and she gave me a big Kiss.
@@glasydorlan She lived in Bearwood near where I went to school George Dixon Grammar school, her father was a violinist who taught at St Phillips Grammar school which was my first choice school but there were too many applicants and I wasn't clever enough.😂
Peter Green...gave one of his guitars to Gary Moore...maybe worth a listen to Gary :). Peter Green went through a pretty deep psychotic episode and went away from music for many years. He came back to use though ...RIP Peter
I'm all with @davey jones. Fleetwood Mac was just any pop band after Peter Green. Okay, they had some hits. But they never got as mesmerizing and fucking great as they did with Peter Green, that's a fact. Even his (few) solo records are so amazing that every guitarist could follow him. I have P.G. heard live a few months before he died and despite not being able to get up from his chair it was one of the best concerts I `ve ever heard and seen. Best wishes @all from hamburg (germany) -> Thanks for sharing @Trippy Hippi3
This is the original Fleetwood Mac. I can't stand what they turned into with Nicks and Buckingham. A middle of the road pop group. Fleetwood Mac were always a British Blues band. Peter Green was a genius.
Plus The Beatles go to their Revolver album, they started to create psychedelic from then Sgt Peppers, Abbey Rd, White Album. White Album and Revolver my favourites.
Peter Green and the guy next to him in this video were given an LSD overdose in Germany and both ended up have mental breakdowns and were never quite being the same again.
Your very USA orientated. Check out uk bands like Thin Lizzy, exquisite Rory Gallagher, Gary Moore, 80’ s New Romantics and Depeche Mode , uk Scots Irish and Welsh were huge innovators of classic rock, metal, heavy metal and lovely genres. Us Brits are a very creative bunch and headed up the likes of Aerosmith, Ozzy is British go down the hole…
They had a HUGE #1 hit in England which was an instrumental. Albatross. Peter Green's FM was my favourite band until the girls came along and ruined it!
Peter was a master guitarist.
The original Fleetwood Mac, 1967-1972, was the best, imo.
The entire Then Play On album is genius.

hahaha thats awesome! pretty cool tattoo idea actually lol
Only a Gibson guitar can pull this riff off

Love this!! The Original Fleetwood Mac with Peter Green, Stevie and Lynsey joined when the came to America
You've had a couple of Spliffs!!!!
Don't deny it!!
Don't worry I'm not the Police!!
Good reaction Lad to a Great song!!!
Have a good Life!!

There were roughly four era's of FM.
Peter Green era, Danny Kirwan era, Kirwan/Bob Welch era and Buckingham- Nicks era.
All had Mick Fleetwood and John McVie in them.
My favorite is the Danny Kirwan era.
oh wow i had no idea there was that many eras of fleetwood mac. thanks richard!

The original Fleetwood Mac the best line up in my opinion way before Stevie Nicks joined
👍🏻
Love this track!
FLEETWOOD MAC, "OH WELL"... A GREAT EARLY FLEETWOOD MAC SONG... COOL, AND GROOVY...
I remember this song playing on the radio when I was a kid. ❤️
Original Fleetwood blues, rock, Peter Green wrote black magic woman, love them! Peter Green influenced many rock and blues stars. 🌟☮️✌️
RIP PETER GREEN

Check out the album Then Play On by Fleetwood Mac.

Christine's real (maiden) name WAS Perfect prior to marriage to John McVie.

John Paul Jones has stated that "Black Dog" was heavily influenced and inspired by Fleetwood Mac's "Oh Well".
The guy at the beginning is Alan Price from The Animals. The only constant in Fleetwood Mac is the drummer and bassist. Mick Fleetwood and John McVie.

Peter Green was Brilliant.
The best blues guitarist ever.
This is when fleetwood mac made great music long before they sold there souls by moving to the good old u.s.a.
This is the original Fleetwood Mac. I can't stand what they turned into with Nicks and Buckingham. A middle of the road pop group. Fleetwood Mac were always a British Blues band. Peter Green was a genius.
💯
Love these older songs.... Thanks Trippy..
Oh Well was the inspiration for Black Dog.
Peter said he didn’t want to make money from being famous, he just wanted to make people happy from the music, like Rory Gallagher.
Well I agree that's the prime if you consider that it hit No2 on English Charts.
Hey man, you just ran into one!
Plus The Beatles go to their Revolver album, they started to create psychedelic from then Sgt Peppers, Abbey Rd, White Album. White Album and Revolver my favourites.
Peter Green and the guy next to him in this video were given an LSD overdose in Germany and both ended up have mental breakdowns and were never quite being the same again.
2 days late but I love Fleetwood Mac. Great one Trip!
Better late than Never =P haha! thank you!
Fleetwood Mac how i remember them. I saw Peter Green with John Mayall back in the 60's
This is only part one, hear part two!
Please do Man Of The World and others. Love Alan Price introducing them
This is "Oh Well Part 1". There is also a slower "Oh Well Part 2"
This is better than Black Dog. And Black Dog is my fave Led Zepplin track.
Children of God took all his royalties for years until friends helped him get some money back, but he lived a simple life until he died.
Do Fleetwood Mac man of the world and albatross you won't regret it
Peter replaced Clapton in John Mayall’s Bluesbreakers just before starting FM.
Your very USA orientated. Check out uk bands like Thin Lizzy, exquisite Rory Gallagher, Gary Moore, 80’ s New Romantics and Depeche Mode , uk Scots Irish and Welsh were huge innovators of classic rock, metal, heavy metal and lovely genres. Us Brits are a very creative bunch and headed up the likes of Aerosmith, Ozzy is British go down the hole…
Danny Kirwan enough said.
They had a HUGE #1 hit in England which was an instrumental. Albatross. Peter Green's FM was my favourite band until the girls came along and ruined it!
Try the Green Manalishi by this same era Fleetwood Mac . Think a man of your tastes might enjoy .
Didn't Judas Priest cover that on an album? To be fair I've only heard the Fleetwood Mac version.
WTF why did you cut it? listen to the whole thing.
You mentioned led zeppelin they are not in the same class as the great Peter Green.
Dave ain’t here … !
This is the original Fleetwood mac the one and only Peter green
