Man Of The World DVD

[Popmuseum]

Hello there,

watching the "Man of the World"-DVD i asked myself which German commune it might has been, where Peter Green got collected by his "Fleetwood Mac"-colleagues.

I did some research and found out: The "Highfish-Kommune".

Rainer Langhans, famous former member of well known German communes, writes in an article ("Autobiography"/"Car-Biography") that he and his former girl-friend Uschi Obermaier met Peter Green in Munich, where they invited him to their (then well known) "High-Fish-Commune" (High-Fish = "stoned fish / shark"-commune): http://www.debrebant.de/pdf/auto.pdf

It seems that Langhans and Obermaier were not really interested in Peter Green. - They just wanted to get in contact with Mick Taylor.

Langhans and Obermaier wished to organize a "Bavarian Woodstock". They wanted Jimi Hendrix and "The Rolling Stones" to be the leading stars of their Bavarian open air festival. - They needed the "Green God" just to get in contact with "The Rolling Stones" via Mick Taylor.

Read more about it, in the "Rolling Stone"-Forum (in German):

Last, not least: Please excuse my "English". I'm used to listen and read (in) English, but I'm not used to write in English. Sorry.

Regards,

Des is mir ja gleich egal. Dies is 'n internationales Forum, a biss'l Wieanerisch is mir eh recht. Muss net alles Englisch sein.

I took a glance at the two articles and went on from there. Very interesting. It seems that a lot of unknown information on the Munich-question was already known to a couple of people (but for John MacV. and/or Mick F.?).
Good to know that maybe a movie/documentary about this commune will be made by Christa Ritter????
Please keep us informed, Andreas(???)

Habedieehre,

herzlichen Dank für die freundliche Begrüßung (hier). Schön!

Wenn es etwas Neues über München zu berichten gibt, werde ich wieder in Englisch posten.

Bis dahin,

P.S.: Ich weiss (noch) nicht, in welchem der beiden bestehenden Threads "München 1970" sinnvollerweise abgehandelt werden soll. In beiden ist vermutlich einmal zu viel. Ich halte "Munich Accident" für naheliegender.
