So I was thinking of the instrumental Fleetwood Mac the other day and I remember hearing that the boys recorded 2 other songs at that session. I'm sure someone knows this, but what were they?

Double Trouble & It Hurts Me Too (I think?)

With the Blues Breakers these two songs were recorded, and without Mayall they recorded:

1 Fleetwood Mac
2 First train home
3 No place to go
4 Looking for somebody

All these tracks were originally 'mono', but on the LP "Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac", LFS & NPTG were both "re-channelled for stereo".
'First train home' is still not available in stereo and I'm not sure about 'Fleetwood Mac'.
Peter Green plays harmonica on these tracks (except FTH), which he did not on the November and December sessions in 1967.

So following on from this a little - are these the only studio tracks we know of that included Bob Brunning on bass?

Rambling Pony 1 & 2
I Believe My Time Ain't Long
Long Grey Mare

Mike Vernon seems to think on the "Complete Blue Horizon Sessions" box set notes that Brunning is only doing "vocal chorus" stuff on Rambling Pony (1) and that No. 2 was recorded later with John McVie on bass (even though he doesn't have a recording date for No. 2).

^^^ Aha, thanks for that. I don't have my CBHS box with me so I couldn't check it. The recording date I have for RP #2 is 9th September '67, the same day as "I Believe My Time Ain't Long". That date came from a book I have (sadly not with me at the moment) which lists all the recording dates for studio stuff. However, I'd be more inclined to take Mike Vernon's word for it, unless Bob himself can remember?
