This to Daniel Benson below. I ran into BB King on a flight out of Las Vegas and he remembered me as someone who knew Peter Green. King told me that he ran into Peter earlier in the year (before Peter's return to music), and asked when he could hear Peter play again. Peter responded that no one would care to hear him anymore. King corrected Peter and told him, "I would." Green then returned (with the Splinter Group), but in a sad homage to Peter's own prediction, I went to see him at the BB King Club in Times Square NYC. It was a two set gig. The club had to pay (read "beg") in free drinks the few people who showed up for the first set to stay for the second as there was no queue of people for the second set. The master of blues guitar playing and the founder of Fleetwood Mac had been entirely forgotten in the Big Apple. All five of us who loved his blues playing wept. The remainder of the audience were young guys on dates with young girls who had never heard of Peter Green. One girl did say to her boyfriend that "Albatross" was a beautiful tune. It was sad, man!

I notice everyone up against the stage are guys by themselves. Kinda like Green himself. Probably all guitar nerds.

Neil Murray (the bass player) said if Peter was in a good mood he'd coast during a gig. If he was in a bad moodyou'd get a good performance from him. I can only assume Pete was pretty pissed off in spite of the smiling and looking like he's enjoyijng himself, cos his solos are brilliant on this!
