You said it Brother! His playing bypasses his mind and flows directly from his heart to his guitar!

It reverberates

It’s perfection in a song

His popularity is on the rise. The Greeny guitar sold by Gibson and Epiphone is a symbol of his incredible prowess and importance.

There are lots of people know who he was... his sidekick fellow guitarist Danny Kirwan should be better known.

P. Green is well known as a great guitarist Greets from Greece

I know who was and still is for alot of people.

B.B.King loved Peter Green, 2 brilliant blues guitarists, sorely missed🌟🌟 Peter when he was still 'living' was missed. Whatever they gave him in Germany (scum)

Had a chance to hear Green in '69 and could not be bothered...Duh on me! Listen to Bare Trees a 1972 FM album featuring Danny Kirwin I believe- Green was gone by then but still a great pre-Stevie Nicks album, proving Mick Fleetwood knows how to find great lead guitarists!

Imagine if it had been recorded in a little better environment. It's still beautiful here, but I can't help but wonder about the possibilities...

Exactly. The more i listen to Peter the more i realize how nobody compares to him. Jimmy playing something like Red House is the only electric blues that comes close to Peter playing electric blues.

yup,,,,,,great blues vocalist too

@@ryanodonnell4184 Peter Green did what no other guitarist does- gives you a riff, then waits & lets the riff sink in before hitting you over the head with another one...takes real patience, skill & listening...much more skill than a billion notes a second

@@stevejeffrey11 restraint is the hardest thing to do with an instrument in your hands. Its so easy to play a million notes and impress the crowd, but to lay back and let the music guide you into silence, when silence is what the moment demands, is very difficult. And thats what its really all about, letting the musical energy guide you with no interference from your mind or ego. There’s an old grafeful dead lyric: “let the music play the band.”

Brings me back to beautiful place in time.

Paul Kossoff did pretty well for a poor jewish kid too!

A yr later, but, don't know why you needed to mention his religion or country of birth. Sublime blues musician who belonged/belongs to the world 💙

What do you mean he sounds black, full of soul.. And comes across soooo authentic.. Everybody take it easy!!!! It was meant with the upmost respect and love..What is it with people today sooo uptight a bunch woman, always looking to start some shot from behind a computer.. You should be careful before you start throwing stones, especially when you dont know what your talking about...Just for assuming i was being racist or anti semetic, id slap you all over the place if you did that to my face..FACTS! But you wouldnt, peoe like you want to be trouble makers from behind a keyboard.. Id make you shit yourself 100% your wife would have to change your bloomers... Ty for making the readers think i was being racist... Im Italian, im gonna take it as a compliment if someone said.. That Italian guy sings like a black blues man... And you know how i meant some people just like to play hero when they can get away with it...Everybodies a fuckin authority today!! What a mutt move! Now go be a rat, and report me, bc thats your next move, its inevitable after that stunt...

U r totally right, but best guitarist is such a thing. It`s no sports, no measuring. He is, with Gary Moore, my favorite guitarist, but I would never say he was the best. Best wishes.

For me Peter Green is the Best too. Peter Green was and is the God's Father. The best guitarist John Mayall ever had. Heaven must be happier with Peter Green. Greetings Rebecca. ✌️

@@philfrank9226 agree with you. Peter Green was the best guitarist but is only my personal opinion. Gary Moore, Mick Bloomfield, Rory Gallagher, Robin Trower, Jorma Kaukonen, Kim Simmonds, Mick Taylor, etc etc are and was great guitarists. By the way Blues for Greeny CD or LP of Gary Moore is Excellent. Greetings Phil. ✌️

There is no other version where he puts so much feeling in this song

I was thinking as a guitarist myself. His feel his tone second to none THERE WAS NO ONE LIKE HIM but all that aside. With minimal musical education you make 10 minutes THIS enjoyable.. God rest his soul there will NEVER be another

Such a true statement 🎸

Still can’t fully believe it :’( But its our mission to keep his beautiful music alive!

I wish there was video that went with this. There is video of Oh Well played at this same concert. That is Danny Kirwan out in front on Oh Well.

Simply Natural❤️

Frank Marino is on my list as well.

It's a '59 Les Paul Standard, later owned by Gary Moore, currently owned by Kirk Hammett. I'm old enough that I got to see this band (and this guitar) about half as dozen times in the late 60's.

I'm going to make a long Peter Green Playlist. Such beauty, soul, and mesmerizing hypnotic subtlty.

LSD opens world's of the deepest soul music, if you are a musician and you have embarked on LSD musical sessions, you know what I'm talking about,

To the best of my knowledge, no one knew what he was given in Germany as he was alone with this group of strangers. The outcome! Drug induced psychosis 💔

The schizophrenia was bad enough, but I really believe the "treatmen" he went through really fucked him up.

Nobody knows pain and sorrow make the most beautiful music, you have to feel these things from the very depths of your soul,

The Boston tea party, 1970.
