Dansven - maybe you could post those photos from the Memphis Slim session! I'd love to see anything from that. And that reminds me, I've got a CD of the BB King in London album - the photo of Peter with BB and Duster Bennett looks like a good one, but it's so small you practically need a microscope! Does anyone have the old vinyl album? The photo on there must be a bit larger.

Yes, sharkfan2000. I'll post the pictures in a few days. There are two black and white pics with Peter, and a few with other musicians.

Do you have a picture on the BB King CD??
I have the CD copy of "In London" but there are no picture there! Strange, maybe I'll have to get the vinyl of that one too

Anyway, I'll post the pics from the Memphis Slim session soon.

Yes, the one I have has a tiny photo inside the front cover foldout. But it's very tiny, about the size of a postage stamp. I guess I can try to scan it, but it would be nicer to have the photo from the vinyl album (assuming that photo is a bit larger).

As promised, here are a couple of photos (see the attached files) - and these aren't even the ones I was thinking about before. I had these on my computer and realized they must be from that early '70s TV session that Cussion mentioned.

I will post some more later this evening - most likely I'll start a new thread for them on the Peter Green solo forum since they're more appropriate there.

I also have a few other photos I'll post in a new thread on this forum - a couple of pre-Mac Bob Welch photos, an early promo shot of Peter with the Bluesbreakers (pre-Aynsley), and a couple of live & TV shots of Mac from '69-'70.

Since this is a Bluesbreakers-related thread, I'll attach a photo file of the group shortly after Peter joined them. From left to right - Hughie Flint, Peter Green, John McVie, John Mayall.

Could this one be from that timeframe of when Eric Clapton was on his "Greek Holiday"? (when Peter filled in, then was bounced when Clapton came back) I don't think Hughie was in the band for very long when Clapton returned (only long enough to record the Beano album...Dunbar took over not too long after those sessions, if I recall correctly).

According to the Chrome Oxide webpage for the Bluesbreakers, Peter Green joined the band on July 17, 1966, and Aynsley Dunbar replaced Hughie Flint on September 18th, 1966. Looks like the band played a few live dates during those two months but did not record anything.

Here's a scan of that photo from the BB King in London CD, of Peter with Duster Bennett and BB King. As I mentioned, the original is really small, so this scan was about the best I could do. According to Mario's sessionography, the sessions were in June 1971.

Sharkfan2000, thanks for the photos you posted here and on the Peter Green forum. That's very generous of you.

Here are the two photos from the Memphis Slim session - one with Peter alone, and one with Peter and Chris Spedding.

I also found a coloured picture of what may be the "Heavy Heart" Top Of The Pops session.

And in one music magazone I found a very small picture of Peter from the PVK period. It was very small, so the quality isn't that good. I think it's a cool picture. Probably a promo picture, but I haven't seen it elsewhere.

Great photos, dansven! Thanks for sharing them.

That color one of Peter with the Strat looks the same as one of the black & white photos I posted, but this one is much better quality. I think I've seen one of those Memphis Slim photos before but I can't recall where. And I've never seen that PVK-era one.

[dansven]

No problem

I once saw the Memphis Slim picture on a website called "The Peter Green Haven". It was the official Peter Green website long ago.

Great picture of Danny too! Thanks for that one!
