However, there's a great snippet of an interview for "The Turning Point" with John McVie and Green. Both are discussing the importance John Mayall had on their careers, and Peter is very engaged and intense. That was filmed in May of '69.

I always wondered too. Yes something is wrong, it is like an akward situation for him, and the rapport with the interviewer is missing. I don't know if he is high, but he seems a bit hostile. The poor interviewer seems to be struggling to get a word out of PG. Even in Man of The World he seems more communicative, and there is not the same sense of hostility.
The interview in "Turning Point" is great because it gives an idea of how he used to be. And you can even recognize that personality in the "Man of the World" interview, despite of all that happened to him since. In MOW he is still very vital in his way of expressing himself for someone with a diagnosis of skizofrenia.
By the way I think Mike Dodd interviewed him for Man of the World. He was researcher and interviewer on the film.
