What Mick, John, and Jeremy fail to understand is that Peter Green was seeking out new ideas, and new forms of rock music. It's no wonder after that night in Munich Peter Green becomes a wah pedal fiend guitarist.
The Krautrock band Amon Duul had connections to the Munich commune, perhaps some members participated in the jam.

Agreed, those tapes contain amazing guitar playing. Maybe Munich was more an emotional catalyst than a chemical one, as Green left the band shortly afterwards - and that's why the rest of the band talk about it - they were chocked he was leaving.
