Thanks vinnie, you finally cracked Jeremy Spencer's outer shell.
While I doubt Peter Green, and Jeremy Spencer were about to hire Ian Gillan to sing the original soundtrack to "Jesus Christ Superstar", I know what Jeremy Spencer is trying to post. Towards the end of Peter Green's run in FM, he became closer with JS because of PG's "Christianity". Peter Green wanted to constantly donate money from side "gigs" for charity. Mick Fleetwood was the one who told Peter Green that, "I'm too selfish to do this". So Peter Green began to lose interest in FM, and when he discovered "Krautrock" in Munich 3/70, he was going to leave the band, in a couple months.
The irony is if Mick Fleetwood let PG do his "thing" for charities, the band wouldn't have suffered as it did for almost five years without Peter Green. They would've been serious rock stars, not a pop band that would make American mini-van mom's proud. On a serious note, I know Peter Green would've left eventually because of mental illness, but it didn't have to happen as soon as May, 1970.
