THIS is the real Fleetwood Mac.

They showed up at Tuesday night Dollar jam night at the Fillmore in San Francisco in 1968. They were either just traveling through town or had been booked to play somewhere and had missed a date but they showed up unexpectedly that night and set up and played a whole set that just blew everybody away! By far one of the best shows I'd ever seen!

We are so lucky to have this footage of the original band at their peak.

When BB King says Peter Green was the only one who gave him the cold sweats... If nothing else was said about Peter, that was enough. RIP, Peter.

Phenomenal guitar playing Peter!!!!

Danny Kirwan…sad never got the recognition he surely deserved..RIP…Danny

They define British blues at it's peak, none better! This is my Fleetwood Mac!!

Legendary! This is the real deal for badass blues rock boogie… three fantastic lead guitar players who also happen to double as superb blues singers! Never be another like this original Fleetwood Mac band

"World keeps on Turning" kills me. The man was the real deal. God bless his memory. Thank you Peter.

I was listening to these in 69 when I was just 13.. Now in 2022 I'm 66 and still listening to and loving them.. Can't beat good stonking rock blues.. Esp Peter Green style

Three great guitarists in one band. To me, this is The only version of Fleetwood Mac that matters. Too bad that drugs and psychological problems took their toll

Fleetwood Mac. Wonderful. We had the great thrill of seeing Peter playing in Belfast not long before he died

Danny was my alltime favorite Mac...huge Peter Green fan ,,that goes without saying....this is THE REAL FLEETWOOD MAC.

Rest In Peace Peter Green....🎸💚✌

Jeremy Spencer playing slide and singing, followed by Danny Kirwan showing off his vocals and how to swap leads back and forth around a broken string, and then The Green God himself doing World Keep Turning solo… I think it’s the best blues guitar lineup ever.

THE reel Fleetwood Mack love it

Almost no ego, never hogged the spotlight. Danny’s talent shines bright along side of Peter’s.

Jeremy Spencer is smoking here!! Peter greens solo is superb!!

Peter Green - Best British Electric Blues Guitarist ever. The Green God.

Jeremy Spencer is the student perfecting the past with his slide guitar. Danny Kirwin is the student pushing the future, giving the Master Peter Green inspiration to do his best song writing. Peter Green is the Master energized & energizing his band. Peter named the band after Mick & John, so he could step away in the future, & they would still have a band.

Peter Green. Greatest guitar player and beautiful Soul, now bringing Joy in Heaven. Thank you Peter. x

Danny breaks a string at 5:45 but continues to rock on without missing a beat .. true professionalism.

Proper Fleetwood Mac in their prime. Thank you all for the music.

It just doesn't get any more painfully bittersweet than watching PG and DK together.

A powerful and gifted group of musicians. Green and Kirwan remain my favorite one-two-punch guitar duo.

Such purity, such a blend of outstanding talents, what a masterpiece of musical bliss.... LONG LIVE ROCK & ROLL

I’m 65 now but this is what R&R sounded like when I was a kid - raw &. dangerous!

I guess it was my first live concert om Norwegian Television. Changed my life. I was nearly 13 years old. The very best line up FM ever had.

RIP Peter Green

Soo good to hear to REAL Fleetwood Mac in full flow and playing the blues. Whoever posted this - thank you.

It's a shame the Green, Kirwan and Spencer incarnation of this band wasn't around a few more years. Peter one of the all time greats, and the other two were no slouches. No band ever had this much guitar talent at one time.

Fantastic piece of history with Peter at the height of his powers! It also reminded me that John was an absolute wizard on that bass.

Danny 19 years old! What a personality and passion for the blues !!! And he can also do very different things, as in "Sometimes". a real talent. You will always be with us, Danny, as well as Peter.

An absolutely priceless piece of history in this amazing film of the early band. Peter has already got everything possible in a guitar player/singer. Fab Thank you for letting us see this.

To think Peter was only 23 here. Such a shame how things turned out for him, and Danny. Great to have this footage.

Wow! There isn't many films existing of prime Peter Green playing lead guitar in full flight but The Rattlesnake Shake here is definitely one! What a treasure!

They were One of the most awesome rock blues band, Peter Greenbaum, this his real name, pure Genius...

Danny Kirwan, totally unfazed by a broken string! Brilliant

Man, could these guys ROCK. You could feel the energy of the electric blues.

Just happened upon this. What an awesome piece of film. Jeremy, then Danny and then Peter! Too bad all 3 guitarists couldn't work together longer. Still guitarists come and go throughout the entire history of Fleetwood Mac. You have to realize how unbelievably great Mick was on drums and John on bass.

Broken string soon in and never misses a beat. Danny and Peter were an awesome blues pair.

I had a bootleg of Fleetwood Mac. This was my favorite album out of over 500 albums. 1 side was with Peter, the best English blues guitarist, unfortunatly a short career. 2nd side without Peter. Peters side was so amazing. I have looked everywhere for similar greatness as the Peter side. I have not found a recording to match what they did on that one side. I am not saying anything negative about other recordings. The Peter side was so amazing. Parts of 2 songs, 2 entire song. 1st partial song was "Underway", side started somewhere in the middle of the song. The complete track was "Tiger", I am hear to tell you that version was so superior to any of the other versions. That version was so tight, tighter than any other version, of any of their recodings of Rock n Roll classics. 3rd song and 2nd partial was "Green Mahalesi" it playred til vinyl ran out. This side was also 33 minutes long, that's right 33 minutes. I had a turn table with adjustable speed conrol. Played at 33rpm's someting was not right so played with the speed, of coarse I timed it when I got it right. The non Peter side was excellent as well. Kirwin was fantastic leading them on that side. Better than any of there future line ups with out either of those 2 magnificent blues guitarists. The album did not survive my house burning down in the "Normal Heights" Fire in San Diego in 1984. If it had I would have uploaded it for all to enjoy. Best in an opinion along with better or not as good. History is subjective since we were not there. Please be happy with what is available. I know I am😅

Each and every person in this lineup brought their own individual talent/ skills/musicianship and together they gelled into one of the great early blues groups.

Danny KIRWAN the only boy who could play with Peter green and no one known it 😭🎸

"Dany's broken a string..." And then the master takes us into the deepest blues of all time. The people who were there did not realize that they were witnessing History.

Supreme and I was blessed to kno him around 1980 for couple years wen he was coming back mentally. The cool king of uk blues n rock. He was sonunderstated yet profound. Legacy eternal

One of the first concerts I saw on TV. Never forgotten this. I still like this version of Fleetwood Mac better.

For such a young band the way they play the blues is outstanding Peter green is on another level amazing guitarist still can't believe he was only 23 magician

Although Peter's musical career was cut short by his use of mind altering substances we should be grateful for the treasure of music he left behind and the musical growth he exhibited from 1966 to 1970. We FMac fans get to not only enjoy Peter's compositions but we are blessed with the musical bond Peter had with Danny. The Then Play On LP gives us a group of songs which transferred beautifully on stage into extended jams. Whenever I need to enjoy the genuis of Peter Green I am never at a loss to find amazing songs and thanks to the Mac community there are new versions coming out in rapid fashion. Peter blessed us and proves that quality trump's quantity always. Bless those that passes away leaving behind a legacy we will enjoy till our time comes.

What a fantastic piece of rock & roll history.🤩

3 lead guitarists all attacking their instruments.... injecting the blues and taking it to the sky... probably the best and most honest version of Fleetwood Mac

Rest In Peace, Peter! We'll play on and on and on for you!

And they still look super cool. And very handsome! ❤️

Absolutely fantastic to hear great blues music by the greatest band around the GREAT FLEETWOOD MAC

If there was an era of music I could travel to… What fantastic guitar playing!

Peter was a great song writer and a top guitarist. When he left fleetwood mac the band changed directions and added Christine then changed direction again when lindsey and stevie came on board. These videos of the first incarnation are priceless treasue.

Wow. Original Fleetwood Mac and some fine early British Blues. Brings back a lot of memories😊

Such EXCELLENT MUSICIANSHIP, held together by Mick Fleetwood's Great drumming skills.... Intensity before drugs + egos tore them & this sound apart....

This was the first big band I saw in 1969,what a thrill.Brilliant

Three great guitarists but Peter Green head and shoulders above. World Keep on Turning is something special. Real blues that Hooker and co would acknowledge. As BB King himself said.

One of the best rhythm sections around. Still going after 50 years. Always makes the guitarist sound good.❣👍

The concept of this band is amazing.. All three guitarist got their own moment to shine, more people would talk about them if they continue playing together this way for more years before disbanded

I must just say “the great Peter Green”.RIP

What a group what talent. This is brilliant ❤ three brilliant lead vocalist and three brilliant lead guitarist, with a magical bassist and Mick Fleetwood. Can’t ask for more.

God bless u mr Greenbaum It comes from your soul...real suffering

Thank goodness we have these rare footage. Gives us some insight of what it would have been like at one of their gigs.

This is the Best of Fleetwood Mac. Peter Green 💚🇺🇸🇬🇧🪴

Long live Peter Green! !!

I watched this on Norwegian television, 13 years old, and - wow - what an experience - after that I was sold to blues. I never get tired of the blues/R&B-version of FM.

Performed on my fifteenth birthday! Glad somebody was having a good time. God bless Peter and Danny.

This iteration of FM was the greatest rock and roll band in the history of the world. Period.

Peter can tear your heart out and hand it to you. This is what Jesus would sound like if he got the blues.

Peter Greens work here is exemplary. What a great and modest man and musician.

Watched this concert on our TV. My life changed instantly. IUmagine Norways only channel broadcasting this concert. They don`t do it nowdays.

Never knew another Fleetwood Mac existed. Why did they ever evolve? Great blues!!

We all wish veryvery, Peter and Danny found her fridom in this other world 🙏🙏🙏, they habe given us so much with heavenly music ,but also the whole group was dynamic ,,,, thanks to them all **** yes,Peters rattlsnake is realy blowing you away 💥💥💥💚💚💚, and how beautiful he looks and the power he had , cant believe that people meant ,him ill, i don't believe it !!! No !!! There was much wrong

Have watched this so many times and will watch many more. Peter Green, a true blues guitar hero, sooo good. Gonna watch it again right now!!

RIP. Shalom, bro!

Danny Kirwan in Bestform! I love it!!

Peters voice was so damn good.

Aaahhh yes when music was all raw musician

This version of Like It This Way is so godamn gnarly. Two streams of thick woody tones weaving in and out of each other. Broken string? Who cares! Just ramp up the gnarliness!!!

happy to say we followed them from the beginning. THEN PLAY ON and KILN HOUSE, every tune was great.

I especially appreciate the Danny Kirwan footage here. Thank you.

Great slide work by Jeremy, of course - and great to see all the band playing behind him. Imagine the band without him, and the great rock and roll he brought to their sound - a great live band. Oh, to be in the audience digging it :-)

When Pete starts playing “World Keeps On Turning”... that’s how I want a Les Paul to sound. “I need it like the sky need the sun” indeed.

Man they was heavy back then. Hendrix like intenstiy from main man Peter Green. That solo song he did- just unbelievable guitar work on that.

What a gig! This has to be one of the most essential viewing experience for any fan of blues/rock music. It's a shame what happened to Peter Green, he really was one of the best and this video proves it.

I'm 68 and love British blues Peter Green, one of the best ever love John Mayall as well.❤

5:41 when Danny's string breaks during he is bending heavily :) how deep he is in the solo, his reaction is epic :) poor guy he was a really talented boy. RIP.

Peter you we're so wonderful 💚 and. " they "around you made you i'll and loosing control ,Love 💚

Saw the words " The Real Fleetwood Mac " I been saying the same words for 50 plus years. Saw this band in Chicago/68. 69. Stupendous guitar works....

Wow Flying V playing Blues!!! Awesome!!!

So much incridible talent in one band! I often wonder how, or even if, they would have progressed, if Peter hadn't fallen so spectacularly off his trolley. But they left some amazing music for us to love forever.

Jeremy had a great voice and is the only one of the 3 guitar players still alive.

Nothing comes near it not even Cream ... second to none absolutely mind blowing!!! Thank you so much for posting it . All the best from Australia

Fantastic live blues performance....!....All incarnations of Fleetwood are good, but this is terrific...

Amazing to find this on here, actually saw them about ten days before this at The Lyceum in London. Howlin' Wolf was on the same London bill backed by three guys from NE of England.

This is the Fleetwood Mac I love!

The music was raw an unapologetic and it was something you could feel!
