De Laatste Show
 

According to Salvo (Union Square Music) Peter will appear at a Dutch TV show called "De Laatste Show" ("The Late Show", I guess...)

Thanks a lot, dansven. I will look out for it. Maybe it can be viewed in Holland. Like everybody else here I am really looking forward to this event!

All the best

Ms Moose

Greeny on 'The Latest Show'
 

It's a Belgian show and I will record it (next week?); there wasn't any Greeny tonight.
I don't know how to post it but I'll try.

Next Sunday we will see him in Tilburg!

Hé GertJan,
Keep us informed. I'll see him in Amsterdam.
Let you all know if I can have made an audio recording.

Till then,
Cheers

BTW did you see us (BluesBlasters) with Louisiana Red on youtube?:thumbsup:

Hi Daniel,

The translation for De Laatste Show = The Last Show
;)

Ok, thanks for the correction, Wouter ;)

Tonight is the first gig!!! Leffinge, Belgium!!! :]

Here's another new photo of Peter! :thumbsup: (from a studio?)

Did anybody here see him tonight at Leffinge, Belgium??

Another new photo, with Mike Dodd ;)

Where was this photo taken?

My guess is that both photos (plus one small posted earlier), were taken at a rehearsal/studio. Peter wearing that same pink shirt on all of them.

Cool, not since Warren Zeven I've looked forward so much to see an artist in that show! :thumbsup:

Well, he didn't speak, but he looked ok for me. He played a gray/blu strat, and I think his nails were coloured :shrug:

Albatross sounded beautiful.

Hahahaha :lol:
Bet the nails looked great, as long as they weren't coloured black Emo-style!

I noticed thé nails too, looked like nicotine staines :lol: about 60 years worth of nicotine !

I recorded it but need to convert/compress it before i can upload to youtube. Have the day off on friday and promise to take care of it then.

I'm counting on you :thumbsup:

Hahah :laugh:

I've often wondered about Peter and smoking.
I know from photos and quotes that he smoked in the 80s. Somebody said he'd chainsmoke and listen to a Thin Lizzy album (from the biography). Then there's one photo of him sitting at a table all hair and beard with a cigarette.

With Fleetwood Mac I would assume that he smoked (tobacco!), since "everybody" did. But I can't remember seeing any photos of him doing it! I've seen photos of Jeremy smoking, but not Peter.

During the time with Splinter Group I read an interview where he said he'd given up beer, wine and smoke, cause he'd been diagnosed with a hernie.

Does anybody know anything about "Peter and tobacco"? I'm just curious :)

That's a scary photo. I've never seen him smoking in any of the photos from the FM days. I don't think there's one during the Mayall years either, I think.

I think back then the only cigarettes he smoked were of the jazz herbal variety. Speaking of which have seen you the group photo of FM where every member has slits for eyes? Whatever they were on, they were gone. How they performed in that condition (Mick says they did) is absolutely amazing.

Indeed, very scary photo.
Which "slits for eyes" photo are you refering to? Can you post it?
cheers

Peter and tobacco...he certainly smoked heavily in the 1980's and probably into the 90's. It is believed that tobacco smoking can lessen the effects of some mental illnesses such as schizophrenia...in some cases patients are encouraged to smoke.

If Peter's smoking now that's not especially good for him...but ho hum...there are worse things he could be doing.

here it is...

Two more photos...
 

While looking for the previous photo, I thought these were too good to pass up.

The first one is Green (Jesus hair removed) with Duster Bennett, and B.B. King for the "B.B. King In London" sessions.

The second has to be from the 4/69 RAH shows.

Cheers man these fotos rock :blob2:!!!!!!!!!!

Fungus
 

Fu[QUOTE=suzyvermoesen;799723]I noticed thé nails too, looked like nicotine staines :lol: about 60 years worth of nicotine !QUOTE]

I think it looks like a case of fingernail fungus. It can get painful and affect the sensitivity of your fingers if it is not treated.

Hiatus hernia can be caused by a lot of things - like extensive coughing or for instance constipation (which is for instance caused by use of morphine based drugs or bad diet)

...and: yes it is strange you never see pictures of him smoking during the FM era. The only picture - as far as I know is the heartbreakingly sad one from the eighties.

Ms Moose

Here you go :thumbsup:

Great! Thank you very much! :)

John

Yes, thank you!

The woman who makes the introduction looks like the same woman who introduced the same song 39 years ago, only older (as seen on "The Early Years" video). Except that was folk singer Julie Felix so that would be impossible.

Oh, Suzy Q, baby I love you, Suzy Q :xoxo:

Beautiful. But those fingernails are strange! Still, beats the talons he had in the late 80's. Peter looks relaxed, concentrating and even enjoying the experience.

Thanks so much for putting this on YouTube!

Is there anyone who can translate what the announcer is saying in her introduction? Into English, that is! :)

Thanks for sharing!

/z

She is saying:

First an old hit. Peter Green wrote history in the late sixties, with his band Fleetwood Mac and the slow guitar classic "Albatros".
Next friday he will be performing in Verviers but tonight he is here.
Ladies and gentlemen : The "Laatste Show Band", Peter Green and "Albatros"

She should've said where the band's name comes from, that they went through a few changes (in the lineup & genre) and that they are touring this year! :rolleyes:;)

Thanks for the translation, Suzy! :thumbsup:

Great this is the best performance i´ve seen i think of albert rossfrom his comeback years , great band like the lap steel, drummer is cool too. Great stuff!!! Thanks for the post :]

"The Laatste Showband" or DLS is a group of excellent musicans. Their singer, Patrick Riguelle was the guy playing the lap steel. I have seen him perform several times and a few years ago he did Elvis Costello's "The Juliet Letters". Fantastic performance. It seems like he can sing whatever he wants to (except Kings of Leon :D )

Yes, DLS is a great band as we can see. DSL and Peter played a very fine version of Albert Ross.
Thanks for sharing this video track.
