Default Peter Green was an enlightened person in 1970

He was one of the few who saw through the "crap" during that time of rock stardom. He didn't like the fact that gigs were charging over a Pound. He was a pure soul, who saw the future of rock/pop music, and he didn't like it.

Yet he left his last song with FM (The Green Manalishi) as a blueprint for British heavy metal (and Queen).

Green was not crazy when he left FM 5/70. It's when PG stopped enjoying music (as per Bob Brunning ('72/'73?)). That's when he "changed".


I have to add, that Green comment about admiring an AC Cobra, yet knows if he owns it he will miss the thrill of hearing it to "freak out". That's zen! That is a person who does not seek to possess what he enjoys in life. He only admires it when the rare occasion comes an AC Cobra crosses his path.
