Hello there, sorry it has taken me so long to answer...

Your best bet is to get hold of 'Duster Bennett - The Complete Blue Horizon Sessions'. Peter Greens Fleetwood Mac was sort of a "house band" on a lot of Duster recordings with Blue Horizon, certainly on his first LP 'Smiling Like I'm Happy' from August
1968. PG plays guitar on some songs. I think also the next one 'Bright Lights Big City' from december 1969, where some numbers are recorded live at The Angel Godalming, Surrey on the 15th of April 1969. Here PG plays his famous six-string bass on some numbers:

Of course Duster is blowing his heart out on 'Trying So Hard To Forget' on 'Mister Wonderful'. And probably also on other records that I don't know about....Oh yes - and he plays on B.B.King's 'Live In London' on the song 'Caldonia' on which PG plays guitar also.

I am not quite sure about the third Lp '12 db's' from october 1970.

And Martin Celmins has written a biography about Duster 'Jumping At Shadows' from 2007.
