Default Interesting tidbit I just discovered at the ABB site

After Duane Allman's fatal motorcycle accident in '71, it has been said that the only guitar player they considered replacing him with was Peter Green. (they eventually replaced him with piano player Chuck Leavell) But, by then, Peter had left Fleetwood Mac out of the music biz and headed on his downward spiral.

But, that just sets the mind ablaze with "what ifs".

Hearing the Allman Bros (with Peter) playing "Oh Well", "Green Manalishi" & "Rattlesnake Shake". And, hearing Peter playing "In Memory Of Elizabeth Reed", "Whipping Post" & all those killer blues covers, too!

Another great lost opportunity.
