I won't idolize his efforts or achievements.
In my opinion, that's why he's gone underground.
I want to hear what's relevant to him now and I won't compare it to past works or try to figure out where he's headed next.
If he graces us with any future recorded tracks we're lucky.
The end.

there was a man who ran for president of the united states. his name was louis abolafia. on posters all over NYC where I lived at the time he put up a poster of himself holding out his hands holding a mound of doody with the caption under it "Tired Of the same old ****?" He was not 35 at the time and even if he could have gone on the ballot he was ineligible.
I do not idolize Peter Green. I think I i am just so captivated by what he has done over his career "whatever that is" that I just keep wanting to hear everything he has done or is doing. I dont know why. I wish I could play music with him. When I was in bands in my youth I wanted to play the kinds of stuff he played. I was in blues bands but never found people to play with that had a real passion for music. I have seen BB King maybe 20 times over five decades, I saw Freddy King in 68, 70, and 71. Buddy Guy in the early 70s when he and Junior Wells were the hottest thing around. These guys had passion. Thats what peter has. Whats wrong with being close to the fire? I wish him well in whatever he does. I dont like hangers on or fans anymore than anyone else. Why the hell does anyone post to this website if they were not interesed in him. He is not God. neither am I.
