In 2008 I was living in a tipi up a mountain in Spain when Peter was staying with a friend for a week. He had no bass player and I was asked if I would do it. How that happened I still don't understand but I played with him in a private house all day for a week. I was 58 and he had been my hero since I first heard him in 1967. I have a photo of him having breakfast with me, shirt off in the morning sun discussing art. A beautiful, gentle man. A treasured memory of a miraculous meeting with a most loveable and humble man. .

It's disappointing and a shame that a solo like this will never be heard by most fans of the blues/rock of this era. I stumbled on it by accident several years ago and come back every so often to listen to it again. The emotional content is so overwhelming that it becomes almost frightening to listen to, you understand that he is tapped in very deeply to a place that very few if any artists can ever reach. It's not a place that anybody can dwell in for very long, it just takes too much out of you to play at that level. At a certain point, artists have to move on. They continue to play their songs, just not with the type of intensity that can be summoned in their youth. Of course with Peter, his "demons" were well known, so it's not a stretch to hypothesize that his heightened abilities were aided and abetted by them. All I know is I've never heard anything quite like this, it defies description and categorization.

You're right. It's a soul surgery in public. I was often thinking that this emotional intensity and urgency, which made Peter such a player and singer was his way of coping with his inner demons. In other words without having his mental predisposition which finally caught him, he would be probably just another skillful guitarist but not Green God.

Man, please don't take offense, but I just don't hear it. I've been playing guitar professionally for almost 45 years. I'm not great; I haven't toured the world; but I have a good ear and have listened to literally hundreds of guitarists (maybe thousands). I've had the pleasure to gig and record with some of best musicians in the SE US. And when I hear Peter Green I just hear the same 5 notes played over and over and over, the same way thousands of "blues" guitarists have done it thousands of times. I hear players in Memphis and Nashville every week that make Peter Green sound like a bedroom amateur. He knew pentatonic blues scales and he could play them pretty fast and accurately. But a player like Gary Moore or Rory Gallagher did is SO much better. I do not intend to offend. If Peter Green is your man, then so be it. I won't tell you you're wrong. I just DO NOT hear it.

I have a huge music collection. Lot of blues and rock, but also flamenco, cuban music, bluegrass, soul, funk, reggae etc etc. Beside that I'm a musician for many years. I can say I know a lot about music. My point is that the solo Peter Green is playing here is not from this world. I have never heard something like this, not in this genre anyway. I can 't mention a guitarist who can lay the heart and soul in his playing like Green did. Paco de Lucía could and despite he was much more a technical player than Green, I scale Peter Green at the same level as de Lucía. The absolute top level thus. R.I.P. Mr. Green

Peter Green exhibits a direct connection between his hands, heart his fingers and a higher power. His music was an expression of his emotional and spiritual being. He's a deeply spiritual being and that was his main crawling force, to express this spirituality. His lack of ego and not wanting to be a star left him living in a chaotic world where due to his skills he had nowhere to hide. His fame showed him that the music business was a road he would rather leave and find religion. His music will always live on with us and emulated by many that followed I'm happy his last years were spent in a good place with Peter finding a place in life. RIP Peter Greenbaum

I got hooked on this band and especially Peter as a 19 year old one day in a record shop in 1988 when I asked about the song playing over the store's speakers. It was "Shake Your Money Maker". Ever since I have searched out live recordings and anything by Green and the Mac. I always got the impression he held back and only showed flashes of his talent, after learning about him more, I got the impression he didn't want to show off, and restrained himself on stage many times. But good lord above when I came across this recording about 4 years ago I was blessed with this, Green absolutely pouring every ounce of his soul out on his guitar, I knew then what I suspected all along, he was definitely the greatest guitarist I ever heard. That's no knock on any other titan of guitar that I love like Clapton or even Hendrix etc . . . but NO ONE can take guitar playing to this level, could be wrong, been wrong before, but Jesus H Christ, I have never been exhausted listening to a solo before in my life, but this causes one to stop and breathe and hit "reset" before moving on from this.

steve greene one of the best phased solos of all time in my opinion, is Eddie Hazels - from the bottom of my soul. If you ever heard of Funkadelic, he usdd to be one of tje guitarist back in the day. Honestly, everytime i hear just even a fraction of it my heart beats differently. For your own sake check out maggotbrain by him aswell. 10 improvised one-take. Out of this world. ps. this was not to take anything away from greeny. He's my idol 😊

I'm 20 and I love this stuff! (I've really gotten into the Peter Green era of Fleetwood Mac as of lately) The blues just really reaches into your soul and latches on like no other genre of music! I do really enjoy classic rock/rock 'n roll and hard rock as well, though.

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..........

Wozzlepop I don't think he wanted everything, ever. So how much of this "solo" is Danny? they usually traded licks. I think Danny was a little more aggressive than Green and didn't tend to roll off and get as subtle, though it's hard to tell between them sometimes as Danny was happily learning from the Guru. I get annoyed by most of these comments full of stupid hero worship with no intelligence. and almost everyone forgets Danny is here too and they attribute the playing of both players to Greeny. Shouldn't Jeremy Spencer be with them at this time too?

Wonderful to hear this track again after a little hiatus from not listening to the great man. I can't get over how marvellous his playing is here. What a talent he was. He was always a great technical player but what elevates his playing to my ears is that extra magical, musical quality that he had. I suppose I'm just describing his inate musical talent. To have the musicality he did is very rare. I'm so grateful and blessed to have heard and enjoyed Peter's music. I will always love it

You can hear his demons getting the best of him in both the vocal and his playing in a manner usually conveyed by the best Black bluesmen. Which is the highest praise possible. Listen to Otis Rush. I think B.B. - who loved Peter - did that more with his playing, but I never really hear it in his vocals. Makes sense; he wasn’t a tormented guy. A number of Delta acoustic blues guys pulled that off, Robert Johnson is at the top of that pantheon. That a middle class Jewish guy from London pulled this off is nothing short of a miracle, This is not racist. The best performers of any ethnic music, from reggae to Mexican music to bluegrass, are almost always Jamaican, Mexican and rural white Southerners, respectively. It makes sense; genuine folk music is the product of a culture, the folk. Peter Green was a way outsider who plugged in to that world, literally.
