Influences on Peter Green. . . .
I had a question about the original Fleetwood Mac with Peter Green that I hoped might be interesting. I was wondering who Peter Green's "influences" were. . . .For example - Big Joe Turner? B. B. King? Albert Collins? etc.
After all, no Peter Green Fleetwood Mac = no current Fleetwood Mac. |

listening further
if you want to hear music he emulated in feel and style here are some tidbits to listen to:
B B King: don't answer the door (live album) B B king: live at the regal theater Otis Rush: so many roads, it takes time, satisfied, all your love, freddy king: Im tore down, have you ever loved a woman, the shadows: greatest hits midnight, perfidia the beatles early stuff some things to chew on |

I haven't heard a live version of "Don't Answer The Door", but I think King's guitar on the studio version is very similar to some of Greeny's work.

annother one
In Mike Figgis's Red White and Blues, Peter mentions a particular album by name as being influential to him
It has gone by a couple of titles. The one I have(on Vinyl) is called Blues at Big Bills Copa Cabana, which features a lot of the Chess record stars. Sugar momma is performed on that one as well as the famous Led Zeppeilin tune Bring it on Home. You also really can not fail to mention John Mayall. He taught him how to put together songs in formats Peter liked to play. He had such a wealth of music that he gleefully shared with his friends and blues enthusiasts. Thats like going to school in and of itself. |

Um..."Bring It On Home"? That would be a Sonny Boy Williamson tune.

I was just being tongue in cheek because of all the allegations of Page 'stealing' stuff from the old Blues guys, but nice to know he did give credit for some stuff
