Peter Green covers

[doodyhead]

Where was Green Manalishi recorded?
If Carlos Santana was there, he was not alone.
according to the legend, Mr Winter was supposed to have played a lead guitar track in that mix too.
it must have been a crowed studio, wherever it was. my guess is that it was in several places over a prolonged period of time. Where was the parking garage that they ended up getting the echo in peters voice at the end? Jeremy Spencer was there helping Peter.

39 years is long enough for this to be shrouded in mystery

I think from the Hjort book, FM recorded an early Manalishi in Hollywood 1/1970. This is around the time they recorded Playboy After Dark. Manalishi and World in Harmony were completed 4/70 in London. I'm sure that was when Jeremy said "Hey Peter, do you want some echo? I have an idea." The result is one of the eeriest recordings ever made. Judas Priest never got it, but the Melvins did.

I bet they recorded some of the jams, too, since they were in a studio! If only reprise would properly re-release all the fleetwood mac albums - remastered with bonus tracks like that!

The garage-reverb was in London, at De Lane Lea - Jeremy talks about it in the documentary 'man of the world'.

A quiet weird cover of "Man of the World" I just came across recently:

Chris Farlowe on this 1986 released album "Born again". It is one of the bonus tracks.

The producer was a guy called Mike Vernon. You remember him?

No kidding! "Then Play On" is long overdue for a proper re-issue. I swear I can hear record pops during "Closing My Eyes" on the CD. If I'm right, they didn't even use the master tapes for the digital transfer.

In the "Vaudeville Years" notes there's a part where Martin Birch talks about the pops in which he says there was something wrong with the multi track machine they were using so every drop-in he did had a very audible click so by the end of that session the track was a mess of clicks and the day after the session he'd go to the studio to cut out each of those clicks by hand and even then they couldn't remove them all as we can hear, probably due to all that existed (or didn't exist as it were)back then they had to work with.

I agree though, I'd love a expanded TPO.
