be Peter Green.
I'd never noticed that before. Hadn't even read about
it here (though using the search feature here, I can see
it's been talked about).
Maybe it was due to the serious listening session I had
tonight. Meaning no phones, no company, played start
to finish with no breaks. In a dark room on my best system.
Tusk deserved this. And at this point how many more times
do we get to listen to something new from Fleetwood Mac?
Even if it's alternates.
Now I question my ears. Was it there all along? If so, how
did I miss that all these years? Was it just deeper in the mix?
Or is Peter only on the alternate?
I'm going to be able to answer the questions myself once I get
through listening to the entire Deluxe Set in order. And as I've
tried my best to not read many of the comments about the set.
A first listen without the influence of others is the preferred way
I like to listen to music I really care about.
There seems to be a question of whether or not Peter played on
Tusk. My ears tell me that he did. No matter what Lindsey says.
I look forward to listening to the rest of this spectacular album.

Peter is heard only at the very end of Browns Eyes on the album. Lindsey doesn't deny this. He just had no part in his inclusion and wasn't at the session.
