Indeed, many have come to the end of the conveyor belt of life.
Gave us all so very much.

Hadn't heard the news until you posted Neil - very sad.
I saw Peter Green live many times in his heyday with the original Fleetwood Mac - a brilliant guitarist.
I also saw him a few times after his 're-emergence' - with the Peter Green Splinter Group but sadly he was a mere shadow of his former self & obviously still suffering with mental health problems.
Unfortunately too, the main guitar solos that he was famous for - including 'Man of the World' featured in your video clip - were performed by other guitarists in his band ...

Re: Some weekend Guitar
Does the Orchid Ballroom still exist? Is it the Karting place on there or next to it?Mike wrote:Saw Peter Green and Fleetwood Mac at the Orchid Ballroom Purley Way, highlight was him playing Albatross.

The Orchid ceased to exist a long time ago - it changed its name several times over the years (at one point being called 'Cinderella's' I seem to remember) & the last time I went past it was a Gym ...

Re: Some weekend Guitar
Oh my, I wish I had this skill base, just pure fun on guitars. I should have tried harder when I was 17....
Skip to around 8 minute mark to miss the tech and the good wishes to departing Tod:
