Hello,
on this site http://www.snowywhitefanclub.org/SWFC.htm
we can read about S. White and P. Green meetings and friendship.
His first UK band was called 'Heavy Heart' which recorded a studio album for EMI that unfortunately was never released. Heavy Heart's drummer was a friend of Fleetwood Mac's founder and guitarist Peter Green. So Snowy phoned Peter up and said "I've just arrived in London and I wonder if I could come and have a jam?" To his surprise Peter invited Snowy round. And they have remained friends ever since. When Peter had left Fleetwood Mac, he asked Snowy to look after all his belongings - including his record collection, his old tapes, his Fender vibrolux amp, his bass guitar, and his beautiful old Gibson Les Paul. One day Peter offered to sell his Les Paul to Snowy for one hundred pounds. "I looked at Pete and I thought about it and I decided that even if I paid him for it, it would always be his guitar, not really mine. And I figured he'd want to play it again in the future so I told him not to sell it, that he should put it away because he might want it one day. Or that I would put it in my attic and look after it for him for as long as he wanted me to, but in the end he sold it to Gary (Moore).One day Peter asked Snowy to drive him to the nearest charity shop, where Peter gave then his record and tape collection. "That was a bit painful to watch, I must admit" says Snowy.
He worked with the Floyd between 1976 and 1980, performing on the 'Animals' tour and 'The Wall' shows.In his spare time Snowy also played with his own band which featured Kuma Harada and Reg Isadore. This was ideal for Peter Green, who had decided to do some recording and invited Snowy to bring his band along to the studio to jam. The result was the album 'In the skies'.
