There is not much info at all on Shimon Holly, and of course neither of the session itself.

Thanks Daniel (& Mario), so do you know what the titles on this single were/would have been? I guess llike Mario says "Jam N.2" would be the name of one but do you know what the title was on the flip side?

It'd just make it a lot easier if I have titles so I can research it etc.

Thanks for any further info you can provide on this in advance.

It's only 15 minutes in all , two tracks simply named "Jam 1" and "Jam 2"

I assume that I am the source to this recording among the traders at the Ledge... (Or maybe somebody else got it from "outside" too )
That means that I also have to take responsibility for any error...

See, the thing is there is some Hebrew writing on the cover art, but I have no idea what it means. It could very well be the titles of the two tracks, but I don't know anybody who reads Hebrew. So because both songs are standard 12 bar blues (one uptempo and one slow), I simply titled them "Blues Jam 1" and "Blues Jam 2" myself.

Perhaps anybody at the Ledge understand Hebrew?

Daniel, your names for the two tracks sound as good as anything else! I suspect the Hebrew on the cover art just says "Peter Green / Shimon Holly". I've attached reduced-size jpg files of the artwork.

Thanks for that, sharksfan2000
And yes, I guess you're right about the Hebrew writing...

For any number of reasons, Mr green's life and adventures are entertaining.

That second photo of Peter on the back cover
looks like it was taken in the late 80's.
Perhaps he went to Israel in the "In the skies" era?
He apparenly did go to Israel at least once in the 70s.

When I searched at Google there was a Hebrew site which said this, don't know if it helps or not:

"Israeli Sessions - Peter Green/Shimon Holly".
According to the information I received these jams took
place in the summer of 1983 or 1984. The sessions feature
Shimon Holly (guitar) and Fregel (drums"

I don't know who "I" is & I don't know how to translate Hebrew but since you were talking time lines, I thought it might help (even if it might not be credible).

Thanks John!

So, summer 1983-84... wouldn't that be one of the trips that Kolors did to Israel?? I remember reading in the biography that one of these trips really messed up Peter ... lots of talk about money etc...

Just to confirm, the Hebrew on that CD cover does indeed translate into the two gentlemen's names.
