Agree, Peter Green, too bad what happened to him.
End Of The Game (jam) on End of the Game album.
Drifting.
The Supernatural.
Albatross.

Always like running across others who appreciate Greenie.

Also B.B King, Muddy Waters and blind Wille Johnson.

Only two mentions of any of the Three Kings. They were ALL influential and great!

Also, only one mention of Duane Eddy. He never gets the credit he deserves. He made great MUSIC and sold a million guitars. And he begat Hank B. Marvin who begat every Canadian and most Brit guitar players you ever heard.

B.B King quote on Peter Green:

“He has the sweetest tone I ever heard; he was the only one who gave me the cold sweats.”

“When Blue Horizon boss Mike Vernon arrived at the studio in 1966 to produce John Mayall‘s second Bluesbreakers album ‘Hard Road’, he noticed a new amp and no sign of Eric Clapton. Vernon was shocked that ‘God’(Clapton) was not in the band, but Mayall said, “Don’t worry, we’ve got somebody better!” They were big boots to fill, but Peter Green filled them and put his own stamp on the music. BB King once said he’s the only guitar player who could make the hairs on the back of his neck stand up, and it’s fair to say BB had heard ’em all.”
