The Father of Brit Blues has beem called up for higher duties 22nd July, 2024. Thanks for the legacy you produced & bequeathed to is. All is not lost when everything is gained. ❤😊 RIP
As a guitar player I have been bewitched by Peter Green's playing for years. I sit down and listen to something that sounds, on the surface like any blues track from the era. When I start to take it apart I realise this man was a magician. I love Clapton, Hendrix, Beck, Page, Kossof and particularly Rory Gallagher, but nobody comes close to Peter Green. I listen to the originals, B.B. King, Freddie Kong, Albert Lee, Buddy Guy...but still Peter tops them all. He was born different. He is and always will be my muse.
I agree fully, as your statement is by no means to be taken lightly by throwing the guitar names out like you have. I discovered this recording just a few years ago, not sure how long this has been available, but I was blown away how mature he sounds here at such a young age here (20, 21, 22 years of age?) It's unreal how complicated he sounds, but yet simple?! Not quite sure how to describe it . . .
Mine too!! The greatest musician magic man of ALL TIME!!💜💙💜💙💯🎶💚😎💚
met Peter when he was living with Zappa and recorded End of the Game
@@downatthecrossroads2209, the way to describe it is knowing how to work with the reverb better than anybody, knowing how to blend with others better than anybody, and willing to give something he wrote to someone else so he could play with the tune to come up with new things like the true composer. If you put Jimmi Hendrix with others he'd try to outshine as compared to improve the sound. If you think about it he was in a band that had Eric Clapton and when the band saw he was missing John Maynall said, "Don't worry about it we won't miss him. I found his replacement." After one jam session the whole band agreed that they would never miss Eric Clapton and indeed the albums with Peter Green are better blues music. Furthermore, he was in a band before Jimmy Page joined it once he was gone. It was no better with Jimmy Page in the sense Peter Green was better than him too.
Nothing will never come close to Peter Green.
THE TRUTH IS
Peter Green, the best of em all ... nobody could make his guitar cry like Greeny, stunning.
Yea , How'd one guy get all the talent ? Voice , instrument , stage presence . All I got was flat feet .
que tontería de comparar a los guitarristas
wonderful... JOHN MAYALL IS ONE OF THE GREATEST::: he is agood teacher in MUSIC.
Thank you for reminding us just why Peter Green is the best British blues guitar player ever.
The best guitarrist who J .M. ever had was Peter Green💚
definitely..
He had E. C., M. T. & who ever else
But no one like Peter
First time I ever heard him I thought to myself, "That's the best I've ever heard Clapton play!" then I found out it was Peter Green.
RIP GREENIE! you can rest assured your legacy will never be forgotten.
When I listen to Peter Green on these slow blues tunes I feel like I am swimming in a liquid dream.....he has touch that brushes ever so gently against your soul like the soft whisper from a beautiful woman and it just sends shivers up and down your spine! You can’t teach that. You can’t learn that. You either have it or you don’t.......
Peter Green guitar playing gets me goespumps every time I love it.
RIP John Mayall. Great musician, great eye for talent. Otis Rush and Peter Green had tone about as good as it gets.
Peter Green is pure raw feeling here! Perfect taste, tone and timing. So glad Mayall released the live tapes from 67 for the world to peruse. Love the "So Many Roads" LP but this raw document frees them from the sterile environment of the studio and thank goodness. Sound quality isn't wonderful but who cares as the FEELING transcends everything else!
Turn this up loud and its exactly like being back in The Marquee in 1967. Its poor sound is all part of it. Cheap PA's and old valve amps, and lets not forget mixing desks didn't exist then! It was hell in there some nights!
Green is a badass! No need to compare his playing to others he is unique. He had to move to Fleetwood Mac to let us enjoy his voice and wrote songs that changed the music evolved.
Peter Green exhibits a direct connection between his heart, head his fingers and a Higher Power. Peter Green succeeded by being willing to put his pain to music, his guitar spoke for him and he was a spiritual being in pain. Peter felt it necessary to leave room between notes so that each note could define his pain or the blues he felt. Peter was known for his tremendous tone, a gift that has not been duplicated by any other . Peter had no ego and could no understand the accolades bestoded on him leading to his distain for the business side of music. The Green God will forever be missed but not forgotten.
The best of all replies . Peter Green 💚💚💚 God given talent. Never be another. Loved him from the start and has no end.
Dunno why Mayall'd say Peter was a Clapton copyist! As everyone here has pointed out - it is Greeny's soulful touch & feel that hit you right where you live! Never thought white boys could play the blues till I heard Peter. The only one who seemed to understand that the blues is not about speed or technique but feeling it in your heart. Peter was in a class of his own! And such a great voice too! What a tragedy he took that fateful trip to Germany!
I have the original Bluesbreakers LP from the 60s which introduced me to blues. Blues is not about skin colour but about feeling.
You're taking Mayall's comment out of context. he said "AT FIRST he sounded like a Clapton copyist - which was understandable because he had to cover tunes that Clapton had established. But within weeks began to develop his own style with them as he became familiar with the songs" John ended up stating that Green was the ideal guitarist for his band (and easy to work with).
Mayall also said, when Clapton left, that "don't worry, we got someone better..."
Except Peter said he copied Clapton as well. Everyone did then. Clapton and Alexis Korner invented English blues
Peter green had such a marvelous guitar style and tone. It's really sad how those freaks at the Highfisch-Kommune in Munich screwed him up so bad
Have you seen the you tube docu where they interview the guy that collected him from the Airport .it was all very ordinary unfortunately .
Let's not forget the contribution of Danny Kirwan, also.
Greenie, Johnny, and particularly Otis! Magical blues feeling has kept me happy for over 50 yrs! Love you guys,flawed or not!
Green is really amazing here. Well said about pure raw feeling. I thing when it comes to that nobody else comes close to Peter.
There are very good, playing fast or with skills and technique guitarists but that's not the point. Green's playing is so emotional, so in the blues, smooth and sensational at the same time. Every note a tear, every note with something to say, every note with so much soul in it. A lot of people can play very well,but playing like peter is a gift.
In my opinion another one legend that can do the same with the feel,the touches with his simple playing that can give you shivers down the spine is Rory Gallagher.
+bill iceage I agree with you my good friend !
..and about Rory , too !!!
Cheers from Hellas !!!
The Decca singles with Green beat the shit out of The Hard Road album. The Live in '67 stuff with Green is a real testament to just how good he was!
You've summed up my feelings about Greeny perfectly. "Every note a tear" perfect. The only man I ever prayed for.
I agree with you that they were on a similar level of expression but i would say that peter green probably had a greater depth of soul. Both could really express but peter was connected to something more.
As much as I like Rory, I wouldn't put his quite on the same level as Peter. But that's just a personal opinion.
The more I hear, the more I realise how great he was. Rediscovered.
Everyone talks about The Yardbirds having Clapton, Beck and Page. But you never hear about John Mayall having Clapton, Taylor and Peter Green. John Mayall ! “Father of British Blues!
that would be Alexis Korner
Holy Shit,What a bluesy genius.Peter Green owns them minor blues.Oh Yea.
He Majored in the Minors
1967 That's the year I got drafted ... I was listening to Mayall and wondered why no one else did....after 6 months I ran into other blues freaks... blues soldiers...
I got to see John Mayall in the ear!y 70s and he was magnificent. Did not see Peter, who was an exceptional talent, it seemed John had an eye for musical excellence and pretty much anyone who moved on from his band was a big deal. His Wiki page is awe inspiring. The best. 🎵
RIP Peter Green, thank you for good music.
Peter's playing could wake the dead
PETER GREEN IS ONE OF THE MOST UNDERRATED GUITAR PLAYERS OF ALL TIME, HE HAS SUCH A FEEL OF THE GUITAR, HE HAS THE TONE, HIS CHOICE OF WHAT HE PLAYED, JUST MADE ME WANT TO PLAY GUITAR, HE IS MY HERO, THANKS FOR THE MUSIC PETER, MY BEST TO YOU, COUSIN FIGEL
He is not underrated! But seen as another 'Clapton'.
The Sceptic, Clapton is Great, But I feel that Peter Green Had as much flavor in his guitar playing than Clapton did when Clapton was King in the early years.. they were both in the Bluesbreakers, Clapton being Beano, But Peter had a much smoother flavor to his guitar playing, Clapton had a much different attitude on guitar, they are both Great at what they did.. they both rank in the number one status as far as i Feel, it is all about what you prefer to hear, Hands up ^^ to everyone who was ever in the Bluesbreakers, Thank Mr. Mayall for making the music Possible for these people and the Blues.... Cousin Figel
Well said and we may agree to disagree over some things, but basically yes, you're right. When I found blues as a kid I knew it was what I wanted to listen to. At first Chris Barbers jazz band with ''St Louis Blues'' This was the 50s and I played my fathers album over and over, listening to the pain in her voice. Then ''No one wants to know you when you're down and out''. She had the voice of an angel who'd fallen upon hard times. (Ottilie Patterson) Then finding Mayall and the early Stones was all good.
He under-rated himself. Probably to the audiences advantage actually. Never a showman. He played for the piece even more than for the audiences, or even for himself! Deeply felt blues, and McVie shouldn’t be forgotten either!
Oh my god! The solo by Peter starting around the 11th minute is absolutely unbelievable!!!!!!! I have never heard electric blues this good before - even from him. Thank you so much for making this available!!! He was a true master of his craft. It is tiring hearing how great Jimmy Page is. Yes, he was a sought after session musician but technically as well as in terms of solul, his interpretation of the blues with the Yardbirds and Zeppelin was not on the same level as what Peter Green was capable of.
Page - song thief, peodo, junkie, witch. And not that a great guitar player either. Ask Terry Reid.
The best comment I've read on this subject was somebody who said, and I'm paraphrasing here, is that PG would burn down the house with Page and Clapton in it!
Now, to be fair, I love Page and Clapton, Zep is epic and Clapton did some astounding things from Cream through the Dominos. However, they can't touch PG
playing the blues, it's just not a fair fight. He's in a class by himself.
There's only one word to explain this : DEVOTION !!! Thanks boys
Rest In Peace, good sir! You played for an adoring public that loved your every move, every bluesy lick that melted our hearts, just as these 2 pieces show. You will be sorely missed by thousands of fans and we will play your music louder and longer to resound through the skies as you play in Heaven. Sleep well when you set your guitar down one last time.
R.I.P. John Mayall.
Loving the music, obviously! But also loving all the old photos that I've never seen before.
Every day I have the blues. thanks to the beautiful 'blues'before.
R.I.P. John Brumwell Mayall OBE (29 November 1933 - 22 July 2024)
r.i.p Peter Green
Each time I saw the Bluesbrakers with Mr Green it was a real inspirational experience.Green was entirely lost in each number and was a master of expression and feeling which resulted in the finest of British Blues.They were great days for us old fogeys of the 60 s.I am so glad I was there to see them all. Played in a support band to this incarnation of the Bluesbrakers as well. FAB --- ( Awesome!!)
I was fortunate enough to meet the Lads when they played The Whisky a Go Go in Hollywood in the early 70s.Thats the first time I saw Pete play a Maple Neck Strat along with the "Lemon Drop".They were very nice people.John McVie got a bit miffed when I helped him close his Fender Bass Case without me asking to help.I was blessed as I got a 2nd chance to see "The Mac" at their best.There were hot and cold women all over the dressing room hitting on Greenie like bees to honey,,,,what a life!!!
U lucky sob said with envy lol
Bad ASS Musicians!!!!
Reminds me of "The Thrill Is Gone" by B.B. King also from 1969)
Astounding playing by Peter. Interestingly he never played these blues standards after he left Mayall's Bluesbreakers and started the Mac. The songs are on an album which was released officially last year, featured some of his most lyrical blues phrasing. Having absorbed Otis and BB, he embellished their bench mark with his own unique interpretation of the blues
Tim Charles: Actually the two volumes released are both selections from a 5 CD set that features 5 separate gigs. The CDs were available by mail order from a guy in Holland. He came to London in '67 and spent a week following the band. He recorded the gigs on his portable Uher machine. He then spent about 5 years trying to do a deal with Mayall to release them. It finally happened and the two 'highlights' volumes were released. The big question is...........Why the fuck didn't Mayall do a box set of the 5 complete gigs?
Andy Thomas can you give us a hint where to find this 5cd set?
@@brunoverhoeff117 John Mayall's Bluesbreakers: Live in 1967, volumes one and two on Forty Below Records. w/Greeny, John McVie, and Mick Fleetwood.
@@timcharles5476 thank you,
so much joy listening to these recordings.
I have no words.. just chills... 💞✨💫💓
No denying Otis Rush was an incredible influence on Peter. Black Magic Woman is simply a re-working of All Your Love. But Peter was a rare thing. A white boy who played with all the feel of a black bluesman. His voice & guitar are impeccable. If only Mayall had let him loose on the vocals instead of his own nasally induced attempts to sound black. Peter had the feel & the pulse of the blues. He made it his own. That fateful trip to Germany & getting spiked with acid lost us the greatest white bluesman who ever lived....
AB SO LUTE LY!!!
So sad the acid thing.... we were robbed by sex and drugs...and booze of so much talent....
I so agree with your comments about Mayall’s lousy voice compared to Green’s.
The drugs barely did anything. It was the electroshock therapy that drove him mad
Well said
If you were in doubt about who the best blues guitarist was, after you hear this, there will be none. I think SRV comes closest, not in style, but in passion, but PG is on the top step of
Mt. Olympus by himself. Just amazing. Now I understand why there were so many apocryphal stories about this guy Peter Green that people had barely heard of. And this was way back in 1975, not that long after Peter essentially disappeared. So much credit should go to Mick Fleetwood, who kept this man's memory and musical legacy alive. It's obvious he made an indelible mark upon him that was never forgotten.
fantastic...
Young 21 year old blue s great got me playing the blues
Thank you for posting this. To say it is amazingly good does not in any way do it justice
Grenny...what can one say...no point comparing to another....no one like him...we all have our favourites but i have to say me greatest influence and Koss of course
What a gem ! Thanks 🎉
room to move ...changed my life!!!
I love playing this song . Otis is the man. Its even relevant to today's society. Just a great minor key song to jam to. I always thought of Peter Green as Englands Mike Bloomfield
One of the greats if not the greatest. Went with friends to see him with John Mayall at the Ricky Tick Club opposite the bus garage in Hounslow only to be told by a well pissed off John Mayall that Peter had left to join John and Mick. He then introduced his new find, Mike Taylor. He did his best but what acts to follow with Eric and Peter going before. He did improve with time to be fair but would never be in the same class as those two. Not long after this, my cousin Alex McNab took over there as the manager having been a DJ at the Ricky Tick in Windsor and at Pantiles in Bagshot. Those were the great days of the Best of British Blues Music.
The message of the Artists ( si it sa hcus ), has been Received, Recorded, and Re-Transmitted. Thx Peter Green! TY uploader DK!

ah ! la grande époque! (hard road)john mayall (le professeur!!)peter green le magicien avec sa lespaul!!waaouh!!!
man, what a great player Peter Green was. That unleashed fury on So many roads is just incredible.
Wow!! that takes me back a ways...just brilliant.
Great playlist, efxaristo poli!
Feeling and godd way of playing!!!
Not only is Peter Green a fantastic guitarist but also a great song writer. Have a listen to the Peter Green Songbook - a whole host of blues players paying tribute to a master!
Awesome tone from Greeny.
Miles Davis said 'First you get your tone'! Green new that too!
UNA VERDADERA PERLA! GRACIAS
I sure would like to see the video of this live performance.
This has a Robert Cray vibe. Or maybe it is Robert Cray that has this vibe.
Soulful for sure ........
So glad that UA-cam makes this and so much other great stuff available.
There's no comparison, always thought Cray was overrated . Went to see Cray, his vocals were great but he does not have the feel or finish his notes properly. The band were posers, the hammond didn't sound great. Chantelle Mc Gregor supporting was better. I played bass on the Katmandu album with Peter and Vincent. I would be interested in what others might think as it might be just me!
He went West and conquered it!!!
Delightful
Okay mr. Green now your mind and your body is free
Beautiful music!
PETER GREEN.
Yes peter green
Peter used to go in a cafe called Omni above a Joe Lyons Tea Shop in Richmond,I tried to strike up conversation with him one time, having seen FM a few times I said I Loved So Many Roads,it being the flip side of the Looking Back single that was played a lot on our local jukebox.Peter I'm sorry to say was at that time in his life totally disinterested,it was really hard to get him to engage.I love Peter still do,but it was very sad then to see him like that.Mercifully he came through that period and started playing again and seemed to be ok with everything.RIP.
Thank you for the Blues Dimitris 💙
Pure Honey from that Les Paul !
Amazing sound!
Great stuff. I saw Peter at Chateau Impney 60's, some time before Woodstock Brilliant. Chappo's Family were even better. Shame about the rain.
El blues que me gusta y sigo escuchando directo desde san diego california para el cuernito ymis camaradas del df el rivera para la tabasquenos
Pure musical magic!
Ingenious
Can you imagine if he was able to remain sane? Same with Duane Allman (alive).
Guitar playing seminar!
Simply the greatest white bluesman who ever played! In a class of his own!! Should be taught in school!!!
Peter Green R.I.P.
Wow!
Some people just have it.
tack så mycke
ELLOS SON EL BLUES BRITANICO A PLENO, NADA MEJOR!
the band that only spawned master of blues guitar players, I mean what do we have thanks to the bluesbreakers? we got clapton, we got green and my personal favourite mick taylor.
Thanks Demitris.....you've got some great stuff here
in my mind to he was and mike Bloomfield
I wrote that here somewhere. I've always thought the exact same thing.. well that's 2 of us. Very cool
i have the blues .....to bad i cant play the blues
So, Double Trouble... This version makes it very clear why Stevie Ray Vaughan named his band after this song. Guitar and vocals remind me of SRV's style in Tin Pan Alley and Dirty Pool. And in So many roads I hear certain parallels to Big Mama Thornton's Ball & Chain, but that's another story...
Why we getting pics of Otis Rush when we listening to the Bluesbreakers . .??
+Paul Fraser "Double Trouble" is a blues song written and recorded ( 1958) by Chicago blues guitarist Otis Rush.
''So Many Roads '' , first release by Otis Rush ( 1960 ) ...my good friend !!!
Otis rush song. double trouble..the original version is cool too!
@@Danielallanz The term 'derivative' seemed to apply after listening to Robert Johnson and Son House, not to forget Hubert Sumlin and Otis Rush and the whole host of ORIGINAL US blues artists. I was embarrassed to admit my adulation for all the Brits before knowing the roots. Glad that the Brits brought it back, of course. I do remember hearing John Lee Hooker on local radio in the late 50s I'm pretty sure? In the 60s too many of us playing with fire got burned. Tough shit.
I'm not going to get involved in the stupid s*** of people saying this guy is better than that guy bullshit. However, Peter Green in this era was an archetype of a superb blues guitar player.
nunca escuche tocar tan bien!!!!
well i feel so bad.
Has music improved in 50 years? Nah!
the older PG got, the fewer notes he played.
Was it just greeny on here, or were there 2 guitar players ?
1967! En blues standards PG claramente superior a EC. IMHO.
Damn you can hear some "before the beginning" at like 5:56
2:08 looking good.
Where was Jon Mayall in the pictures?
