It's been a bit since I played that CD...but I do recall that ONE of those alternate versions of "Stop Messin' Round" really kicked.
When I heard Gary Moore's cover on his Blues For Greeny album, I thought, "what's he doing changing the words?"...then I got the Complete Blue Horizon Sessions box and lo & behold the alternate version was the one that Gary Moore took his from. I was impressed with the version Fleetwood Mac played during the 1990 tour with Rick Vito handling guitar & vocals. Christine even took a bit of a piano solo in the middle; really high-energy!! Say what you want about Rick replacing Lindsey, but he did a helluva job on those Peter Green tunes he resurrected once he got in the band.

I'm not a huge Jeremy fan, but I still like his stuff alot.
I probably wouldn't want to listen to a whole album full of Jeremy but one of my favorite FM albums is the debut and he plays a big role in that album for sure. Green got the most of my favorite songs on that album but I really love the mix between Greens numbers and Jeremys. "My Heart Beat Like A Hammer" is my favorite Jeremy song and it's a perfect opener for one of the best debut albums ever. Going from Jeremys intensive rendition of "Moneymaker" to Greens sparse and soulful "Looking For Somebody" is great. Same goes with "My Baby's Good to Me" into "I Loved Another Woman" It's like going on a rollercoaster ride, a fun and emotional ride thanks to both Jeremy and Green. But with that said of course Green was a much bigger talent than Jeremy and the best songs on that album is by Green, even though "My Heart Beat Like A Hammer" comes close to match some of the Green numbers. On Mr Wonderful Jeremys started to sound a bit repetitious and without any real standout tracks it got a bit boring and is one reason that Mr Wonderful is a step down quality wise from the debut. I love the playfulness in Jeremys voice, you can tell he had fun singing and playing these songs. "MY HAAART BEEAAT LAAAKE AA HAAAMAH" Oh and hello I'm a new fan to the pre 75 FM. When I thought I couldn't love this band more, I fall in love with this era to. (Please don't flame me for being a Rumours era fan  )

ALL-TIME: Without a doubt "Flee" is my favorite. It's one of the great songs of all time.
FLEETWOOD MAC: I'll have to think about my favorite of his Mac songs; "One Together" or "Buddy's Song" are the ones in the running for me. ETA: Only doing originals. RECENT: I really love "Psychic Waste."

I've fished through the archives, but I never noticed this thread before, yet it's a good one.
You can't go wrong with "Moneymaker". It's Jeremy's raw blues slide playing at it's finest. While I think this is far superior to Butterfield's take, Jerome Arnold (bass player for Butterfield, also played for Howlin' Wolf) plays like a beast during the second half of Butterfield's version. I don't know if it's been mentioned but "My Heart Beat Like a Hammer" is a BB King tune with a new arrangement. I like: Stranger Blues from Boston Tea Party Linda (with great back-up vocals from Green and Kirwan) My Baby's Good To Me This is the Rock Can't Afford to Do It (I love the off mic back-up vocals, great touch) Someone's Gonna Get Their Head Kicked In Tonight I'm Worried (the best of the Elmore James "Dust My Broom" progression tunes) I was unaware that Spencer did an album with songs that sound like Rumours era FM. I have to check that out. Last edited by slipkid; 04-03-2009 at 02:07 PM..

I held My Hellhound Last Night and now I'm Worried
Ahhh - I like his shaved down version of Roberts Johnsons Hellhound On My Trail on Peter Greens Fleetwood Mac and I like his playing and vocals on I Held My Baby Last Night from Blues Jam in Chicago. I have a soft spot for I'm Worried in most versions. He's a great slide player.

Actually I like both Flee and Jeremy Spencer and the Children albums. They certainly sound a bit dated though. JS and the Children sounds very 1200AD but that isn't necessarily a bad thing.
I've never actually thought about a favourite Jeremy song though, I always find it hard to pin down a favourite song when that often changes with my mood.

Precious Little?
This is interesting digging through my old stuff! Just wondered what you all think of my latest and last?

Really enjoying watching the In Session DVD at the moment too, watching bits when my wife isn't around (given her dislike/hatred for all things FM related). Funnily enough the In Session CD is the last solo album that I require by FM members, then I will have pretty much all the legal solo releases by all the 16 members (well at least until I realise I'm missing one  ) Tried to buy it online the other day as an mp3 download but it wouldn't let me as I don't live in the US.

 ). What I love about "Psychic Waste" is that, despite its throwback sound, it really feels like a contemporary Blues song. Like another "pastiche" piece, Rick Vito's "I Got A Hole In My Shoe," it speaks to the moment. I thank Jeremy Spencer (you?) everytime I see a nihilistic movie like The Dark Knight or Wanted or Wall-E because the song articulates my distress: "We get so used to mutiliation that we no longer flinch or shed a tear!" You referred to your "latest and last." I assume that means: Precious Little and In Session. Wonderful companion pieces. Quote:

I meant to follow up with ChiliD as well on this. Your list on the thread was made prior to Precious Little and In Sessions. Would you revise? How so?
