Never thought about any similarities between those two (assume you mean Hendrix's "May This Be Love"), and don't really hear very much similarity myself. Do you think Peter Green was influenced by that track when he wrote "Albatross"? Don't know that he's ever mentioned anything like that when he's talked about writing it.

Peter has mentioned the Santo and Johnny song "Sleepwalk" was the inspiration for 'Albatross'. It's the Hawaiian theme. If you've ever seen the end of "La Bamba" when Ritchie Valens' family finds out that he was killed, "Sleepwalk" is the song playing in the background.
