The song is a favorite of mine also (and I agree, the Bloomfield / Gravenites is absolutely amazing!)

I know of three recordings (bootlegs all) of Green performing the song with Fleetwood Mac:

Konserthuest, Orebro Sweden November 06, 1969
Golden Circle, Stockholm Sweden November 1969 – exact performance date not known 1969
The Warehouse, New Orleans, LA January 30, 1970

The first, while strong is also incomplete and ends rather abruptly.

The second is one of my favorites, really heavy and running almost seven and a half minutes in length - it segues beautifully into another blues classic, "Sugar Mama".

The third version is equal in running time and of better sound quality, although (for me, it is marred slightly by someone, possibly Mick, moaning and groaning as they play)

If you need help tracking these down, contact me off list
