Any Green-era Bluesbreakers live recordings?
 

With all the live Peter Green-era Fleetwood Mac recordings floating around these days, I haven't heard of any Green-era Bluesbreakers live recordings. Other than a few BBC sessions, there's nothing that I know of. Anyone here know of any recordings? It would be interesting to know what the Bluesbreakers' live setlists would have been during that period and how they would have changed from the beginning to the end of Peter's stay with the Bluesbreakers.

I have that BBC session with Sitting In The Rain, Leaping Christine, Curly and Riding On The L&N. I also have an alternate version of Curly that I think also is from the BBC.

I haven't seen any setlists either, and the only thing I know is that their live shows became more jazzy (and that John McVie became more and more drunk :) )

On the other hand, I do have some live shows from 1970-1972 (post-Green). I know it doesn't have anything to do with you topic though, but here are the setlists:

The first three shows are with Jeremy and Danny and Chris. And these are just as good as the official "Madison Blues" CD-set. The last show from Whiskey A Go Go is with Danny, Chris and Bob. This one is not so good sound quality as the other three, but still great!!

It is interesting to hear Danny play the solo on "Black Magic Woman", while Bob's singing. And also, Danny does the blues "Ride 'Em Cowboys" which has the line "I've got a feeling, blues gonna be my only way..." Hmm, I wonder where I have heard that before... :) They also do a great version of "Trinity".

Hmmmm...BOB sang "Black Magic Woman" then? I have later shows (around the Bare Trees times) where Danny is on lead vocal on that.

It's Bob singing. He does the singing on the Peter Green songs on all the shows I've heard from that period. That's what he says on the Q&A session to...

Yeah, that's why it surprised me to hear Danny sing BMW on the two shows from 1972 that I have.

Hey chiliD...

I was wrong... :sorry:
You're right! It IS Danny singing "Black Magic Woman" on my show too. This is so embarrassing :o

Well, the sound on my show wasn't HiFi.. can I use that as an excuse?? :)
