Polish blues magazine TWOJ BLUES - P. Green Story
Hi,
I'd like to inform about my article on Polish Blues Magazine TWOJ BLUES. I used some information from this forum so thank you very much for your contribiution !!! The article consists of 4 pages (30 000 signs ) and is a compendium of P. Green for Polish fans. Here are scans of cover and 1st and 4th page with two photos taken during P. Green's visit in Poland in 1996. Especially I'd like to thank Mario, Don Brown, Karl Hienz and Peter from Sweden. Stay Green Krzysztof P.S. I hope I will be able to make a few broadcasts about Peter in Polish radio stations :-) |

Green in Poland
Hello Krzysztof
That looks great, and the pictures are never seen before (by me, that is). It's a pity I don't read/speak or understand polish. What does TWOJ BLUES mean? I have heard that Peter Green is quite a name in Poland. Did he get his reputation here via Fleetwood Mac? I quess FM actually never played there? Good luck with the broadcasts - and stay green yourself! Ms Moose |

Peter Green is a legend for many Polish fans althought P. Green's FM or Peter during his solo carier have never been to Poland. But his music broadcast some radio stations in Poland. In 1980's in Poland was published a vinyl compilation PORTRAIT by TONPRESS (Greeny's solo recordings from 1970/1980). So when PG Splinter Group arrived to give a gig in 1996 it was broadcast by Polish TV and Radio Station. The gig was amaizing and Peter recalls it as his favourite (I read it in M. Celmins - Authorised Bigraphy). My foreign friends, whom I send DVD with a fragment of this gig, say - "now we understand why Peter especially likes this concert". Krzysztof P.S. BTW - M. Celmins wrote about the Ukrainian, Polish and Jewish descent of Peter :-) but it isn't the only reason of great respect to Peter :-). The main reason is his beautiful music of course. |

I saw Splintergroup in Copenhagen in september 2002, and there was this feeling of love and awe from the audience, which was rather special. Maybe it was this quality? Yes, Celmins write about the ukranian, polish and jewish descent of PG and as far as I remember PG's former girlfriend Sandra Elsdon is quoted saying that "his blues is jewish blues" - which seems like a very subtle and deep observation in relation to the "tone" and "feel" of PG's music (which Celmins likens to a cantor in a synagogue).

Peter's words " Poland was my favorite concert (he smiles), the one where they ended up jumping up and down to the music" refers to gigs from PGSG 1996/97 European tour. I didn't see other gigs and didn't read Peter's oppinions about them but maybe the concert in Copenhagen (which took place later) was as good or even better than in Warsaw :-). Stay Green Krzysztof |

Good of you spreading the word, Krzysztof!
You sent me a copy of the DVD a few years ago, and Peter looks very happy indeed with the audience. The Polish people seem to be big music fans. Miles Davis said something similar about his visit there in 1983; the audience yelled "stolat, stolat"! Which is supposed to mean...may you live a 1000 years? |

Lately I saw it during some gigs (e.g. Gov't Mule, Greg Allman, Derek Trucks, Otis Grand, Melvin Taylor). stolat (100 lat) means - live 100 years !!! (happy and healthy of course ) BTW I hope you like this Warsaw gig :-). Krzysztof |

Peter himself appeared somewhat detached but quietly happy with the response he got. Ms Moose |

Thanks for the confirmation, and for correcting my spelling/pronunciation of the venue. I had it wrong all along.
Cheers, Don |
