Peter Green was simply the greatest white blues singer/guitarist who ever lived. Anyone would kill to have his vocal ability, and they'd do the same to possess his guitar skills. He could do both. No one else has come close.
They say that playing the blues isn't difficult but to be good you have to feel it and by God doesn't he feel it and don't we feel it listening to him play it.
Whoever told you that is talking nonsense! The blues is definitely not easy to play! The techniques required such as sustained bends, pull offs, vibrato, pre bend vibrato! Trust me the blues ain’t easy to play. Compare it with jazz or classical for instance. Non of those techniques are used. That’s just the left hand not to mention the right hand needs to learn how to alternate pick, use of fingers, thumb for percussion. Only once have you mastered that can you think about putting in feeling!!
Right. And who knew they would be the ones to continue the name in to the 70's when it became a pop band. A good pop band but a far cry from Green, Kirwan, Spencer blues.
I saw Peter Green on his last tour of the UK. On the last song of the night, he played the guitar, the only way Peter Green can play, which was brilliantly. I could just imagine the impact he must have had when he replaced Clapton. He knocked me for six, as we say in the UK, he was on fire!
Great!!! I saw some memorable shows in SF but missed Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac. A good friend saw them at Winterland. He wished i could have been there, though i was i was only 13 at the time. Did finally make to FE, 07 Tom Petty. Great show, too.
Well, not this particular show (it was recorded in Boston at the Tea Party) but yeah, I was there too, Fillmore West, Jan. 1969, right up front. Riveting; absolutely the best. I was high as a kite on mushrooms that evening
Make a dumb man scream and shout. Had the pleasure of talking to Peter over an orange juice or two a few years back about Duster Bennett and what an amazing performer he was. Very little video seems to exist which is a shame. The drive on this guitar solo is out of this world and I think even BB King said Peter was the guitarist who could make the world stop turning. Lovely man, just got a little lost on the way but haven't a lot of us?
Someone was arguing in a thread here, that "soul" can not be perceived in playing. It is all just a matter of technique. I beg to differ, and THIS is my argument. Thank you.
I really admire Eric Clapton at times, but I think Peter Green surpassed him in playing with more passion, his tone and phrasing just incredible, impeccable vocals as well. If Peter had never gone down that LSD road who knows what else he would have done musically, I think the fame and, as the "Green Manalishi" (greed for money), just got to him, he really just wanted to play beautiful music...which he did!
U know sometimes someone has to point out the obvious for us to see it. I've listened to this song a few times, but till I read your comments, did it occur that guy is right on. Excellent comment and Excellent solo
Never knew much about Peter green until my grandad showed me his music . It was like opening a treasure chest for me at 25 years old I can honestly say Peter greens worst song is better than any new songs out today . rip Pete 👍🏻
One of The Greatest Blues Guitarists that ever lived, used to see him about a lot in local shops,as he lived near me on Canvey Island,and although he had issues,he was always friendly if you spoke to him.R.I.P Peter.😢😔🙏🕊
ANY who are Green fans, A MUST HAVE, Gary Moore had Green's '59 Les Paul at this point, and recorded the album with it, but Moore's tribute album 'Blues for Greeny' is an ABSOLUTE masterpiece of guitar work.....RIP to 2 of the greats, Peter Green(baum) and Gary Moore....you'll be missed
Back in 1969, I think it was, we had just finished 'Band Practise', when our Manager brought in a record of Fleetwood Mac's 'Need your love so bad'. We listened and were blown away by Peter's Guitar playing. All these years later, still blown away... I can play it note for note, but I'm not Peter...
Even the incredible Gary Moore did a wonderful version of this track but it just wasn't the same, the combination of this 1970 analogue sound at the Fillmore and the soulful playing not to mention the incredible vocals are unparalleled. Even the mighty Clapton circa 1968 could not have done better.
His guitar sound and vocals are haunting in a bluesy way. Arguably one of the best blues guitarist/vocalist ever........ if not the greatest! Grateful for what Peter Green left us. Thanks for posting.
Yes, it's the haunting quality which really moved me...there's The Supernatural too, which conveys the same feeling (John Mayall)...I'm 65 and still loving it.
@@schmoegler Yeah,besides Peter Green I just loved John Mayall Blues Breakers with Eric Clapton. That John Mayall vocal tone and texture during that time was absolutely sic! All Your Love was aptly placed as the first song from that record.
@@schmoegler Yeah, 67 years old and a FWM fan 4ever. A Fool No More and Need Your Love So Bad send me to a different reality.....EVERY TIME! I loved the Bob Welch sound as well, Hypnotyzed.
No one. Heard Peter only once- late '68- but heard all of 'em, basically: Albert, BB, Freddy, Jimi, Otis Rush, Mike Bloomfield....never did hear SRV through, and he's near the top.
Such a sad loss to us all.....for those that never saw/heard Peter live I feel for you.......just listen to this.....an object lesson to all would be bluesman. Bless you Peter, be at peace now
Play this every Friday across the world at every country's 12 o clock mid-day, then live the rest of the weekend accordingly. Our world will be a better place. Peace.
There's a superior version from the same live recordings in Boston ( where McVie and Kirwan don't get lost during the intro like here) You can find it on a recording simply titled, Fleetwood Mac BOSTON on Madfish records (2013). I first heard it in the 80's on a Dutch label.
I love this track. First tune I wanted to hear after hearing Peter sadly passed away last night. Yes, I shed a tear especially during the solo. Tasteful playing like no other. Rest In Peace, Peter Green.
I remember Anthony “Duster” Bennett ! He was friends with John Mayall and at one of Mayall’s shows, he gave Duster the stage and he did a one man band thing . He was really great. So sad that he died so young in a car crash . .
Listening to this , makes you realise not just what a brilliant guitarist Peter Green was , but what a great singer he was too. I’m so grateful I got to see him live before he past away.
What I liked about peter greens music is you can feel the pain in his singing and playing. Also, You can hear a lot of Gary Moore in there as well. Amazing talent. 👍👍
philip nunn, Hi Phil, I suggest you listen to Gary Moore, Terry Kath, Rory Gallagher, to name just a few. You and I both agree PG is the greatest, but these other guys are pretty cool as well. Have fun, and stay safe...
@@lesshrubb203 And Clapton, Stevie Ray, Mike Bloomfield, and Hendrix (when he wanted to) belong in the conversation. Only one I missed seeing was SRV. But Peter Green and slow blues: touch, taste, phrasing, spacing, tone......a one off.

RIP Peter you Will be one of greatest guitarist of blues history and you stayed the master of numbers guitarist for the life. .. So long Peter... So long... peace at your mind
I'm so happy the man is still around and active. He is a living legend . I hope he stays that way for a while as it seem 's that we're hitting the time when all the great musicians of the 60's and 70's are checking out ! Peace .
I was lucky enough to do so. The Mac played our blues club in October 1967-- just before the release of their first album. I was the bass player in the resident band. At the end of the night it was customary for everybody to get back up on stage and jam out to a couple of numbers. John McVie went to get a drink so the rhythm section was Mick Fleetwood and me! I can tell you he is one helluva drummer---the first one I had seen who knew how to double shuffle. Of course Peter Green was just sublime.
Peter Green had a direct connection between his heart, head his fingers and a Higher Power. You can feel Peter's pain in this Duster Bennett song which was most likely written with Peter's help. Peter played on Dusters LP and was known for gifting songs to struggling artists. Peter was a better man than most with a zest to do his best to put as much positive karma in this world.
Oh sweet Jaysus, Mary and Joseph. This is the best piece of blues ever recored, like. Or even the best music in general. God bless Mr. Green and may he rest in peace.
Peter Green!!! God's gift to the Blues.His Voice carries the conviction in every word.His Phrasing on the Guitar is so moving!! Never a barrage of notes,or a bombardment of sound to pummel the listener into submission.Just pure Guitar tone plugged straight into the Amp,unlike so called local imps that hide behind pedals for faux tone.So much to be learned just listening to the greatness that is Peter Green!! Thank you.
Such a sad loss man he could play the blues and all the ups and downs in his life shame always be remembered rip pete hope you keep playing up there with all the greats 👍
How come 6 idiots did not like this? As well as a writer, Peter Green was the best natural Blues Guitar player of his generation. His voice and his "out of phase" Gibson guitar, made him outstanding in an era that had many great guitar players.
I love his vocals. you can really feel it. Thanks for uploading this. this guitar riff is most likely the most over played riff in the history of the blues, but his singing to this riff, is one of the very best" in this riffs history. not to mention his unbelievable guitar playing.
That feel you just can’t be in this class with effort alone. It’s comes from deep pain sorry practice an just a natural born rhythm an knowing when your vocal has said just enough to give those notes the room to just bloom over it all an come back at you from the emotion an most of from the places your taught to hide from normal everyday life an find a way to say it in a way that it comes into another soul from a song an it’s all of sudden exceptionally excepted from they others hiding the same thing that never found there way to express there inner demons. I miss him an I miss Danny I’m in my 50’s now an I will never let this music pass I’ll just keep giving these songs to others an hope someone else takes it an gives it to so it’s really are job to give it to others.
Had he not gone down the road of ruin (drugs)we the public would have had a huge repertoire of his music sadly his career was short lived. This was my era as a teenager I wouldn't have missed it for the world.
still love this duster Bennett classic done in this way by the best mac , remembering duster when he came to Melbourne back in 1975 for the blues.levis concerts series at the show grounds
I'm impressed how a few notes played with passion easily reaches the parts of the soul that zillions of frantic ones cannot. As Carlos Santana says "get inside the note,feel it feel it."... And the bonus of Peters sweet voice all adds to this masterpiece. How can one put it in words ? you cant, just enjoy Peters massive talent. RIP Pete...serenade the Angels and fellow musicians wherever they may be..
Peter Green what a legend a unique talent he made that tone all his own great to hear him at his early best in a band that were a great showcase for his unbelievable playing buts let not forget there were 2 other excellent guitarists in this band Jeremy Spencer and Danny Kirwin Both great string benders in their own right it's just they were eclipsed by the genius of Green.
This one Song alone played an Heard for 1st time on me "ol-mans vinyl Lp" on a Quality sep stack an speakers capable of blowing the windows outwards! (Was i an i who was Blown away that aftnoon!.. an Avid Adicted Fan of.. Ever Since!! I now own my dads Lp.. proudly!.. Boss Lues
Pure blues..........Awesome...........RIP Peter Green...........first heard him with Mayall in 1960s.......He and Clapton were my favorite blues guitarists back then, along with Alvin Lee, Albert King and Buddy Guy.
I must have heard this several hundred times now but it just seems to get better Peter is a true star he plays from his soul subtle yet cutting he never played as good again as he did in this era brilliant
The Brits had a run of great guitarist in the 60's Blues boom,people lose the plot with it going on about the greatest etc.They all had something special to offer,some were ethnic,some added elements to their music.Peter Green done both,he was a great musician and will be remembered
This is the real Fleetwood Mac!!!! But imagine the Rumours Album if Peter Green had been doing the lead guitar! Doesn't bare thinking about!!! What a loss for us all!! Best wishes from Plymouth UK!!
Haunting guitar work. The man is a genius. His feel and touch are second to none. Makes my hair stand on end. For a Jewish man to play the blues, must take some doing....... Peter Greenbaum, I salute you. People are beginning to realise at last that you were the greatest white blues player we will ever know. I also listen to Jimi Hendrix, Carlos Santana, SRV, Gary Moore to mention a few, but I am in my 60's and I still keep coming back to Mr Peter Green. I have been playing the guitar since I was 14 on and off and when I hear the blues like this I just think to myself Hell, I might as well give up..........Read more
Mr. Green, in his prime, was the best blue-eyed blues guitarist ever! His singing was not too shabby either. ( Muddy Waters pontificated something like no white man can vocal like the black men. )
Steve Edmonds My wife and I met him after a gig in Ayr Scotland in the"Caladonion Hotel"l after a gig with his splinter group band. We sat with him and the band for 3 hours. They sat at our table with us. Never tire of telling people about it!! He was very humble and a real gentleman. Didn't speak much but I blabbered on and on to the band asking where they were going to next and what they were up to etc... still can't believe it after all these years! A genuine pleasure.
The greatest the UK ever produced period. Clapton never brought tears to my eyes.
When B.B.King said he's the only guitarist to give me the cold sweats, you know Peter was great!
Both have for me, Eric just shades it but man this guy was fantastic 😢RIP 🇬🇧 '23
Peter Green's FM was the blues band the Stones tried so hard but couldn't be.
Rest in Peace Peter Green. You were an incredible talent and your music will live on forever. Thank you for sharing your genius with us. ♥️
Well said. RIP 25/7/20.
So well said. 💙
Ironically we lost Gary Moore a few back who played using Peters guitar.
Well said Ms. D.!!!!!
The immaculate tone. Every time I pick up the guitar, I strive for this.
With the blues ,you not only coerce the guitar to sing you make it cry and lament with an eruption of emotion which Peter did.
Fleetwood Mac will never be the same without Peter Green. The greatest era this band experienced
Agreed
No shit.
Peter Green was simply the greatest white blues singer/guitarist who ever lived. Anyone would kill to have his vocal ability, and they'd do the same to possess his guitar skills. He could do both. No one else has come close.
SRV and Peter Green.
Can only agree ,he was so great in many ways and was farahead to others , and for that people let him suffer , may not think about ,
@@tomsimpson6044 totally correct sir!
gary moore, came very very very close!!!!!
I came here to say what aboot Stevie ray V?? Dang dude was a force as well. The song about his daddy gets me in the feels -life without you.

I could listen to Danny and Peter play together all day....actually, I am.
I am too
you do know how to spend your day 🎸
Classic case of "Less is best. "
Timing is outstanding .
Peters vocal is insane.
Wow. .
The tone. The extension. And the space between the notes. Even better than Albert and BB. Bloomfield came the closest, IMO.
@@HAL9007 lol
@@HAL9007 I would add Johnny Winter. Mick Taylor had many moments of genius too.
Of all the great blues guitarists, including BB King, Otis Rush, Albert King, et al., Mr. Green moves me the most. I owe him my eternal gratitude.
Peter Green was brilliant, and his music is timeless...who else would name their band after the bass player and drummer?
AND he immediately credits Duster at the end of the song. Peter is a saint.
maybe me. but now i have to look for them. i'll keep u posted.
Right. And who knew they would be the ones to continue the name in to the 70's when it became a pop band. A good pop band but a far cry from Green, Kirwan, Spencer blues.
Nobody played the slow blues like Peter Green. I was there at Filmore West to witness this show.
I saw Peter Green on his last tour of the UK. On the last song of the night, he played the guitar, the only way Peter Green can play, which was brilliantly. I could just imagine the impact he must have had when he replaced Clapton. He knocked me for six, as we say in the UK, he was on fire!

Ooops. make that '97 for Tom Petty ;)
Well, not this particular show (it was recorded in Boston at the Tea Party) but yeah, I was there too, Fillmore West, Jan. 1969, right up front. Riveting; absolutely the best. I was high as a kite on mushrooms that evening

This song in my opinion, is some of greatest guitar ever
The original Fleetwood Mac were awesome!
Thirty-five years after watching my Dad air guitar this in the living room as a kid, man do I get it. Peter Green, nuff said.
GREEN must be the colour of the blues...
What a voice and what a guitar but mostly what feeling. Peter is always the best. Rest In Peace.

It really took a hand holding for you to hear that?
timing??????yep!!!!!!best Ive EVER heard.......tone???????same opinion
you missed the most important: phrasing.
Peter's tone "is to die for" and to top it off, PETER Can sing the Blues.
It's impossible to hear another human being make such beautiful sounds and not think they are from a different clay.

Never a barrage of notes,or a bombardment of sound to pummel the listener into submission.Just pure Guitar tone plugged straight into the Amp,unlike so called local imps that hide behind pedals for faux tone.So much to be learned just listening to the greatness that is Peter Green!! Thank you.
Saddened to hear of Greenie's passing today. RIP to one of the greatest guitarists to ever play the blues...
Such a sad loss man he could play the blues and all the ups and downs in his life shame always be remembered rip pete hope you keep playing up there with all the greats 👍
Great guitarist and composer máster of Rock and Blues, great communication technique of felling to reach the ear of The great musician 🎸🎶
I'm always amazed by Peter's solos
How come 6 idiots did not like this? As well as a writer, Peter Green was the best natural Blues Guitar player of his generation. His voice and his "out of phase" Gibson guitar, made him outstanding in an era that had many great guitar players.
I love his vocals. you can really feel it.
Thanks for uploading this. this guitar riff is most likely the most over played riff in the history of the blues, but his singing to this riff, is one of the very best" in this riffs history. not to mention his unbelievable guitar playing.
That feel you just can’t be in this class with effort alone. It’s comes from deep pain sorry practice an just a natural born rhythm an knowing when your vocal has said just enough to give those notes the room to just bloom over it all an come back at you from the emotion an most of from the places your taught to hide from normal everyday life an find a way to say it in a way that it comes into another soul from a song an it’s all of sudden exceptionally excepted from they others hiding the same thing that never found there way to express there inner demons. I miss him an I miss Danny I’m in my 50’s now an I will never let this music pass I’ll just keep giving these songs to others an hope someone else takes it an gives it to so it’s really are job to give it to others.
Just recently discovered this banger and AV gotta say sum outstanding playing on this one by the late great Peter green 🎶🎸🤘🤘
Had he not gone down the road of ruin (drugs)we the public would have had a huge repertoire of his music sadly his career was short lived.
This was my era as a teenager I wouldn't have missed it for the world.
Piter je jedan od najboljih gitarista i pjevaca usamom vrhu roka i bluza svih vremena.Imam dosta njegovih albuma i cesto ih slušam uz pivo.
still love this duster Bennett classic done in this way by the best mac , remembering duster when he came to Melbourne back in 1975 for the blues.levis concerts series at the show grounds
been playing since i was 9 years old..now i am 60.. peter green.. just a gentle soul with amazing guitar and a beautiful soul
Unreal. Absolutely incredible blues guitar and singing by Green.
nobody can ever top that
Beautiful tone as always from the Green God. RIP Peter.
I totally agree with Ranger Peter Green
plays and sings with such rough passion! he was the best in his day.
for me my favourite guitarist of them all he has the touch and the feel
In His Day, haven't heard much today that comes close
And his day is today.
I'm impressed how a few notes played with passion easily reaches the parts of the soul that zillions of frantic ones cannot.
As Carlos Santana says "get inside the note,feel it feel it."...
And the bonus of Peters sweet voice all adds to this masterpiece.
How can one put it in words ? you cant, just enjoy Peters massive talent.
RIP Pete...serenade the Angels and fellow musicians wherever they may be..
R.I.P thanks for all the music and your tone is one of the sweetest i ever heard. greetings from morocco
@SilverWolfMoon sweet cheers
Peter Green what a legend a unique talent he made that tone all his own great to hear him at his early best in a band that were a great showcase for his unbelievable playing buts let not forget there were 2 other excellent guitarists in this band Jeremy Spencer and Danny Kirwin
Both great string benders in their own right it's just they were eclipsed by the genius of Green.
Miss you Pete and your music..
R.I.P. Peter Green. In a time of intense competition between guitar players really hitting it,when you hit, you really had The TOUCH! THANKS
Yes thank you for recognizing greatness, may his soul live on!

Pure blues..........Awesome...........RIP Peter Green...........first heard him with Mayall in 1960s.......He and Clapton were my favorite blues guitarists back then, along with Alvin Lee, Albert King and Buddy Guy.
Just on another level compared to most of the blues I've heard, all of peters songs are like that.
I must have heard this several hundred times now but it just seems to get better
Peter is a true star he plays from his soul subtle yet cutting he never played as
good again as he did in this era brilliant
I won't often allow that anyone else should touch a Duster song but this is a sincere homage and much appreciated.
Peter Green, the Master of Blues Tone. Real blues legend!
The Brits had a run of great guitarist in the 60's Blues boom,people lose the plot with it going on about the greatest etc.They all had something special to offer,some were ethnic,some added elements to their music.Peter Green done both,he was a great musician and will be remembered
This is the real Fleetwood Mac!!!! But imagine the Rumours Album if Peter Green had been doing the lead guitar! Doesn't bare thinking about!!! What a loss for us all!! Best wishes from Plymouth UK!!
Peter Greens music tears at my heart
Haunting guitar work.
The man is a genius.
His feel and touch are second to none.
Makes my hair stand on end.
For a Jewish man to play the blues, must take some doing.......
Peter Greenbaum, I salute you.
People are beginning to realise at last that you were the greatest white blues player we will ever know.
I also listen to Jimi Hendrix, Carlos Santana, SRV, Gary Moore to mention a few, but I am in my 60's and I still keep coming back to Mr Peter Green.
I have been playing the guitar since I was 14 on and off and when I hear the blues like this I just think to myself Hell, I might as well give up..........Read more
Mr. Green, in his prime, was the best blue-eyed blues guitarist ever! His singing was not too shabby either. ( Muddy Waters pontificated something like no white man can vocal like the black men. )
Steve Edmonds My wife and I met him after a gig in Ayr Scotland in the"Caladonion Hotel"l after a gig with his splinter group band. We sat with him and the band for 3 hours. They sat at our table with us. Never tire of telling people about it!! He was very humble and a real gentleman. Didn't speak much but I blabbered on and on to the band asking where they were going to next and what they were up to etc... still can't believe it after all these years! A genuine pleasure.
I get chills when I hear this,
He was so intense mysterious Deep Genius..Love him and miss the great Blues stuff as this, wow
Pete you touched my soul....
Great, Great, Great.... RIP Peter Green
Simply The best.
