There’s something special here folks. The tone, the feel it’s almost magical. Bending notes to almost out of key but not quite creating a whole new chord. That’s blues man. So how did a young white boy from England do that. The new agers call it channeling I guess but what ever it was it’s something special. Peace.
Stoffe2, is this available for purchase anywhere? I’ve googled it, but I’m coming up empty on the Live in the Warehouse CD. I have Boston and BBC, but this is incredible.
I like peanuts. If this was a peanut, this would be the most nutritious peanut.. ’cause man, I could spend days just listening to this. Amazing, really.
“I can’t write like that now” and I’ve heard Peter Green and for whatever reason he can’t play like that now. So this is something special for a young Englishman to tap into this level of blues. Even his voice perfectly fit the guitar. So if you can hear it enjoy and if you can’t then argue about it on You Tube (smile). Peace.
If it’s so easy as some posts suggest then how come everybody’s not doing it? Sure some of it is the right equipment and they’re right it is not magic. But good music is an expression of the soul and for those who have an ear for such things there are a few pickers who are a step above in touching our soul. It’s a feeling, an emotion, a state of mind that some are able to project through their instrument. At this stage of his life he had it. But it like Dylan said about his poetry. continued
cheers guy
nothing better than a good ol’ blues
jesus this guys playing makes me want to cry. playing dem blues. God does Green got Depth and fucking raw emotion. Ive never heard Clapton play a solo like that one , and I ove Cream a lot too. But Peter Green was a one off. His Dorian Blues Shaked even the Blues giants of Chicago and BB King was rocked saying hes the only one to give me the cold shakes. A tortured soul who was in touch with his muse . it had to end in madness. Im so glad hes out there again. The Green God is the Blues..
Will do! Thanks for the info.. I had a feeling, I mean.. I can’t really even imagine 8 marshall stacks being necessary for a live setting.. but what do I know, all i’ve ever owned was a Fender Princeton 115 Mexican made.. and a 15 watt roland cube amp 😛 never even had a tube.. man, i miss my equipment tho 🙁
You need to watch a documentary on Tom Dowd. Tom Dowd was the genius studio engineer for Atlantic Records during the 1950’s, and helped out Stax in Memphis during the mid 1960’s. Tom Dowd was the studio engineer for Disraeli Gears Cream album, and was shocked to see eight Marshall stacks in his studio. Dowd had to teach the likes of Clapton that one combo amp will do for studio recording.
I never said anything about anyone being a fraud. Why can’t you play overdriven Marshalls in a studio?
Those spacey blues solos were done with a Fender Dual Showman, not the Marshalls’ that Clapton used with Cream. Of course, you’re going to say Peter Green is a fraud pre-Fleetwood Mac and pre neck pickup reversal with John Mayall? Are you accusing Peter Green for playing one of the greatest Gibson Les Paul’s EVER MADE? The other Les Paul was Clapton’s Beano 1960, and it was stolen in 1966. When you have the tools, use them. You can’t play overdriven Marshalls in a studio. First 2 FM albums
Yeah, I’m just approaching it from a more technical perspective. For example, you can get a lot more feel simply by cranking your amp louder than most and getting a wider range of dynamic, right? Also I thought Clapton was cheered for his solos, hell, a lot more than who you listed.. but what’s funny about Clapton is I really only am crazy about his playing on the Beano Album (John Mayall), which also happens to feature my fav bass player.. hah.
You’re half right, Peter Green had FEEL, and he had the ability to play beyond his brothers: Hendrix, Santana, Beck, Clapton, and Taylor.
Listen to this without judgement to the end. The only three guitarists who were cheered for their solos were Duane Allman, Peter Green, and Jimi Hendrix.
no he’s not a crock of shit 😛
yeah, I gues there’s nothing more to it. What a crock o shit
There’s nothing magical or paranormal about his guitar playing. He just uses simple riffs, doesn’t waste notes.. and has an out of phase les paul with a tube amp. Can’t go wrong if you follow that formula 🙂
Now that is Thee Blues.
Unmatched tone.
This is harder than I thought, because Youtube won’t let me post links. The simple thing is to Google Fleetwood Mac Dead Bust Blues, and you’ll get some links, like discogs or jagamart which claim to have it. A (free??) download is shown at dirtyfunkyblogspot.
Enjoy, whichever…
The Grateful Dead song; “Truckin” was based on these shows. “Busted down in New Orleans”. Had Fleetwood Mac gone to that party in a hotel room the night the Dead were arrested, FM including McVie, and Fleetwood would’ve been deported. That means no Buckingham/Nick Mac. Banned from the USA for a very long time!
what a beautiful melodic intense lines
Thanks that’s very helpful. Is this ‘Dead Bust Blues’ album available on CD? Do you know where I could find it?
There’s a double album called Dead Bust Blues. This live show was recorded by the Grateful Dead’s crew because – I think – the Mac took over some gigs that the Dead couldn’t do because Jerry or someone had been busted. Good sound quality, but if you’ve already got the Boston tracks which appear in several formats, it may overall be redundant. And Dead Bust isn’t always that easy to find. You could always just upload this track with mp3rocket….
Simply awesome!
