Re: Pete Green
Truly,a man of the world who is the equal of Clapton,and with integrity to spare,unlike the plagarist who played for Fred Heppelin.
Re: Pete Green
My favourite of his, 'The Supernatural' with John Mayall's Bluesbreakers, chillingly fantastic.

Re: Pete Green
the original Fleetwood Mac were something very very special - this was the band who showed me there was something far far more interesting out there than the main stream music that I was supposed to like.
and even a lyric I could use in a sig line
I don't say I'm a good man
Oh, but I would be if I could

Re: Pete Green
One of the first singles I ever bought was "Need your love, so bad".
It's got to be one of the finest blues songs ever written (and played).

Re: Pete Green
Ah well,
or as Mick put it, Oh Well.
I must say having listened to the clip, I prefer Peter G's rendition.

Re: Pete Green
The song was called Oh Well.
Can't help about the shape I'm in
I can't sing, I aint pretty and my legs are thin
But don't ask me what I think of you
I might not give the answer that you want me to
Oh well
Now when I talk to God
I know he understands
He said "stick by me and I'll be your guiding hand"
But don't ask me what I think of you
I might not give the answer that you want me to
Oh well
