Maybe you've already seen this.

It's about Peter Green. I was looking about the site for the Don Henley interview and came across it.

Thank you Mari. Of course it's "Lindsey," but it was good to see Peter get coverage anyhow!

What great news. The timing would seem right for such a thing. Peter has proven that he's not against strapping on a guitar and playing some, and he's not tied to the Slinter Group anymore. They guys are all alive and fairly well (Danny?). And as I've said before, I think that if anyone can make something like this happen it would be Mick Fleetwood. And after reading his book I think he'd do it for the legacy of F. Mac, and just the sheer fun of playing with that great line-up that started it all. And it seems to me that as long as those were the basic reasons for a reunion, Peter might be receptive.
Maybe they can come full circle and do a reunion where any profits go to a charitable cause. Wouldn't it be funny if Mick called Pete up and said to him, after 30+ years, "allright we'll do it your way and give the profits away".
Man, I hope this reunion happens.

Mick would give away his children before he'd give away his money.

I have to agree...

I'd say the best thing if there must be a reunion is they play in private or maybe make a record. No greatest hits tour!

dino! i hear you. i still don't think this is a good idea and that it won't happen due to peter's and jeremy's reluctance. they both have good reasons to not be involved.

but as you say, assuming that mf's motives for bringing this up every few years selfless and not related to $$, the only way it would be worthwhile for all involved is get together and play. the blues, freeform, who cares? make a record if it works. move on if it doesn't.

greatest hits tour- i think you got that right too. pete wouldn't play lead on any of his hits except rattlesnake shake when he did them with the splinter group, so how would they do those on tour? jeremy wouldn't even play rhythm guitar on pete's songs the first time round.

but i would love to see the return of vince earl and the valents. with gold lame, expanded waistlines, and with wigs to hide all their bald heads, the mid 70's elvis and aging rocker parody potential is huge.

best to all, zero
