Man Of The World or Need Your Love So Bad
Here's a couple slow Peter songs I thought I'd throw out there for consideration of all you good fans. Man Of The World for me, hands down. Although Need Your Love So Bad is no slouch.

Between the two, I tend to lean toward "Man Of The World" since it is a Peter Green composition.
"Need Your Love So Bad" was a cover...written by Little Willie John back in the late 40's/early 50's. Peter & the Mac do a great job on it (check out the various versions on the Complete Blue Horizon Sessions collection). The Allman Bros Band (I'm in an ABB obsession these days) does a nice cover of it on their Enlightened Rogues album, as well.

Another thing that I love about Man Of The World is how incredibly real it sounds. That's mr Green and his feelings right there in song. Classic.

Man of the World for me too - it was the song that first got me interested in Fleetwood Mac, way way back in ooh... about 1993
I like NYLSB too, but I'm not a big fan of the regular version with the strings, I much prefer it without. |

Blows the studio version away! One night at a blues jam about 8 years ago, the singer asked me if I knew the song, I said "yeah"...so we nailed it. Afterwards, she said, "there's not too many people who know Gary Moore tunes."... I had to set her straight. (apparently, she didn't get the concept of Gary's Blues For Greeny album).

bfg was a great idea and well done but i do agree with wouter; the versions do not approach the originals. i like bernie marsden's tribute more. but as long as you don't expect too much both are great. and since pete doesn't play like that anymore, it's nice to hear his legacy acknowledged (even if a few people still don't get it!) and gary's record did play a role in getting pete to consider playing again i think zero |

Willie died in prison in about 1967; his brother is still alive (I think). I am also having an Allman Brothers Band obsession; the SACD releases of "Live at Fillmore East" & "Eat A Peach" have been in my CD player more than any other disc the last year. GJK |

I was just playing a bit of "Man of the world" on me gitfiddle. Its a beautiful melody, and the emotion in Peter's voice sends chills down my spine!
