Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac ~ Live At The Paris Cinema London 1970 Part 1 

This guy embarrassed all those guit-slingers who thought speed and shredding chops were where it's at. Pure emotion, here. Every note was drenched in it. Timeless and sublime. For awhile, he and Danny Kirwan, two damaged souls, rose to unequalled flights of brilliance.

This is my Fleetwood Mac. The original Mac, far outweighing what the band eventually became in the 70s.

Eric Clapton was once described as "god" but Peter green was the emperor or axis bold as love if any of you know just what I'm talking about........Peter green was is and always will be the king of English blues guitar....... Long live our king

I love the concerts from 1970. Peter had to convince the band to stretch out the album cuts to jam and combine a few songs to help make those 15 minute plus jams. Peter got this idea from his time on the same bill with the Dead. Stretching out the Madge songs made for an amazing 17 minute jam. Mick Fleetwood said he was not into the jams but his best drum work comes on the extended Then Play On mixes like The Green Manalasi, Rattlesnake shake, Underway and The Madge Sessions. When Peter was asked to come out of retirement when Jeremy left to serve Jesus Peter wanted Black Magic Women to be a 20 to 25 minute jam incorporating songs from Then Play On. This was all made possible due to the connection Peter and Danny had. These 1970 shows show how important Danny was to the Mac sound. Peter face Danny confidence and Danny gave Peter a band member to play off on that could take over and carry the sound when needed. They complimented each other with their unique styles. RIO Danny and Peter.

RIP Peter. You may have gone, but the music of the true Fleetwood Mac will live forever. Thank you.

There is nothing like the Original Fleetwood Mac, I grew up on this music, Peter Green made me want to play guitar, Danny Kirwin and Peter were the Dynamic Duo, Thank you Peter, may you R.I.P. your music will be heard forever, Cousin Figel

Such a great guitarist

Rest In Peace, good sir! You played for an adoring public that loved your every move, every bluesy lick that melted our hearts, just as these 2 pieces show. You will be sorely missed by thousands of fans and we will play your music louder and longer to resound through the skies as you play in Heaven. Sleep well when you set your guitar down one last time.

Peter and his 6 string bass💪

With this song you can clearly hear the uniqueness of Peter Green's out of phase guitar. It is a remarkably distinct sound that is the signature of Fleetwood Mac at this period. Fantastic Sound!

Gave birth to Fleetwood Mac.. only stuff I'll listen to.. Green, Kirwan, Spencer era

I've come to the conclusion that our Dimitris Koutsiaftis must be a wealth old eccentric blues guy that has nothing better to do than produce some of the best blues videos with awesome pictures to share with the world all the while keeping the blues a flame. cheers DK

Saw Peter a few times in the London club scene in the late 60's at places like Klooks Kreek and the Toby Jug-he was the finest blues guitarist of them all,not obsessed with speed or flashy playing but with soul. RIP Peter...those were great music days

Thanks for the great music Peter Greenbaum, RIP

RIP Greeny - your songs and playing will be loved forever

Sublime.

The most Epic Underway out there!!!!

R.I.P., Peter. Your music will always stay, and so will you. We love you.

over 50 yrs ago and people still like it

Stoned on good weed, and drinking Coors beer sitting along a basement floor wall with friends in black lights, strobe lights keeping the beat, fantasies took us away. Very groovy times.

I had a bootleg in the 70’s called Merely a Portmanteu. Was blown away by “Underway”! It was this same version. Cannot believe that it is only a 4 minute snippet on “Then Play On” when the majesty of it is so apparent on the long version

Peter tellin the truth. It may be another generation to fully grasp the fullness of his artistry. Oh well.

R.I.P. Peter Green. Your Greek fans will never forget you!

Peter green you have been my major source of English blues motivation and inspiration and despite you went down a different path to the normal and grew your fingernails and hair so you could never play the blues again despite of the goddess of illusion who fooled you with riches materialism success fame even eric Clapton cites you as the greatest ever blues guitarist to ever come out of England the mother country and your influence upon me as a blues guitarist in perth which is described as metallica as the pimple on the arse of the world will never be forgotten and even as I play the blues I feel you with me my brother. R.i.p. peter green. The king may be gone but never forgotten

Holy shit. That last song blew my mind

Am I the only one ? Or is it that Greeny just kept getting better and better

Thank you Peter. I so woke up when i stayed with you in your tent on Eel Pie Island all those years ago; i so understand how your journey messed you around. Be at peace and know you are loved

THE KING IS GONE, WELL DONE SIR, PIECE AND LOVE ON YOUR FINAL JOURNEY, AND THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR GIFT WITH THE WORLD, PETER GREEN WAS A RIGHTEOUS MAN, ALMOST TO GOOD FOR THIS WORLD, A ROCK AND ROLL SAINT, R.I.P PETER GREEN.

I just sorted my head out, and it was 1970. This concert in fact, and it was free after applying for tickets. The audience were very quiet during the numbers, I think they were too astonished to make a sound.

Yes Green Manalishi ,the greedy ! hindu female god and Peter had so right about money , and said it with this so unusual supersong,,,, super,,,and underway ,I'm hooked on this soooo beautiful instrumental 💚💚💚🌠🌠🌠 , near tears every time listen it ,thank you ***

I've listened to PG for about 35yrs & nearly every day. Today ain't no different :) I'm only on track 1 & it's outstanding. It makes me smile & happy.

Rock in Peace - Peter, you were the best that ever was!

Very rare and very nice Pictures and the fantastic Blues of the great Fleetwood Mac

This in my mind is the best sounding live recording of this band.

Peter Green was a BADASS his demons led to some of the greatest music we are blessed to have today. He did not fear letting his life's problems become the force behind his blues inspired magical guitar playing. He was not a follower he led and was exploring music that was ahead of it's time ,pure magic! He was also one of the most gentle egoless people in rock being know for being a giver, and those that give will receive in multiples. He was blessed with many gifts one of which was his unique tone on guitar. God bless you Peter, play on.

Track 4 'Underway' is sublime. Transcends musical borders and boundaries. This is the best version of it I have heard. Goodbye Peter. You are missed.

Peter Green was GREAT!

jeez..what a feeling !!!! :)

PG was one of the primordial rock godz from the blues side. the music lives on!....cheers&aloha

Up there with Danny now , am truely heartbroken, Peter Greens ,Fleetwood Mac are the only band that I wished I wa 10 years older so I could have seen them perform lim live, & include in that list, Hendrix, Beatles, Jerry Lee, etc,etc,

This was at the end of the Mac era, you cam clearly hear Pete breaking out into his experimental era. The rest is sad history disguised by genius xx RIP Peter xx

When I was skinnier than Mick. Great Times. Damn we had it good. Woke was what we did before going back to work.

Oh glorious Peter Green

a gem. Like discovering King Tut's tomb, yeah it's that good. I headed straight to 27:20 Underway by the way

After Peter made a comeback with the Splinter Group, He said the Blues here not meant to be played on a Les Paul Guitar, This blew my mind, Because when he Played a Les Paul , He Was Just Awesone, and made it sound like it should be Played on one, I guess People change thier minds over time, But Peter Made that Guitar sound like a Damn Diamond, R.I.P. Brother, Cousin Figel

I remember seeing them at BBC Radio Paris Studio, Regents St. London, but I thought it was either 1968 or 69. It was the first band I had ever seen with three lead guitars, they just blew me away!

You said underrated? Mick fleetwood is certainly the most underrated drummer ever. Hello Mr. Koutsiaftis! be blessed by bringing this to our attention.

thank you Dimitris for all of your publications. Thank you ...... it's so important !!

Immortal Souls Never Die. Thank you, Peter!

In 1968 and '69 I was a student University of Manchester, U.K. I'd been listening to Elvin Bishop and Mike Bloomfield; Steve Katz; Eric Clapton; Otis Rush. Me mate suggested I give a listen to Fleetwood Mac. The guitarist was amazing... Peter Green had all the delicate nuance, unexpected changes, and power of Clapton on Beano. At the time I didn't think anyone could ever match Clapton's Blues guitar mastery. And to this day, Peter and Eric are the Janus of Blues Rock guitarists. -Doug Pratt, Atlanta, Georgia, USA

Great one ; thnx for loading !

Peter Green e banda, maravilhoso guitarrista de blues rock, um da minha preferencia.

This is simply fantastic. Love that the audience is actually listening to the music. If this was recorded today you'd hear people yelling out through the entire thing. Thank you for posting this.

Rock as I remember it! Superb!

yeah you boys are the best we all miss Peter

Wearing that two-prong crown like a boss! WHAT ELSE CAN YOU SAY BUT "epic" TO DESCRIBE THIS GUITAR PLAYING?

I'm so glad this came up in my RU-vid suggestions!!!! Peter and Danny were mind-blowing

Das ist großartig! Ganz wunderbar!

RIP Mr. Green !!! Remembering you and the team that played with you , great music, magical, awesome,,,, you were a real genius,,,, from a fan in Mexico !! Blues live forever.

Great music and sound! Nice pics! And now...Part 2! Like 73, C7, V4806. /:-)

incredible jam session )))))

One Of The Best Three Guitar Blues Bands To Come Out Of England. Plus With Mick And John What More Can I Say. R.I.P. Always In Our HEARTS And SOULS. 🙏🏼🙏🏾🎸🎸🎸🎙🎵🎼🎶🔊🔔🥁

R.I.P. PETER....AMAZING!

Green monalishi is an awesome song.

Green Manalishi 00:02 - 15:15 Coming Your Way 15:25 - 22:59 Stranger Blues 23:00 - 27:13 Underway 27:20 - 34:00 If I ever get to Greece, Dimitris Koutsiaftis, I am going to have to find you just so I can shake your hand to thank you for all these wonderful posts!!! Efcharisto! (P.S. -- I repost a lot of your YT posts on the "Then Play On...Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac" Facebook page, where they always get a lot of "Likes").

Coming your way is tremendous. This whole video is a treasure.

Track 4 underway is actually part of rattlesnake shake. It's the instrumental part which you can here in the live at Boston sessions. It's just a year or 2 later when Pete is obviously struggling mentally and experimenting with his sound. Definate inclusion of whah pedal

Discovering Peter Green was my Oak Island treasure! Jack pot$

This is great - thank you so much for this video. I am only just now learning about Peter Green - a shame because why didn't I know about him while he was alive? My own ignorance.

16 03 2021 Super ! The sound is fantastic , there is no Peter , but I just found out about him .Photos Super ,many thanks to the Author ! Ukraine .

this is brilliant , an upbeat FM from the real early music , slow transition but you can see where its going.

some really nice photos to go with some dynamite blues rock, these guys were the best.

People forget how good Danny kirwin was.

You run a great channel! RIP Peter Green July 2020...

There is a recording of Peter Green , Duane Allman and Jerry Garcia all on the same stage

Peter was once a bass player I read that the bass solo on The Green Manalasi was Peter playing. Anybody know if this is true. Love Peter and his devoted fans.

RIP Peter Green “ ✡️✡️

Ten młodziutki GITARZYSTA ,bardzo piękny ,blondasek ,do Karola podobny .Karol ma taką brogę jak ty i podobną mimikę twarzy. Jest bardzo wysportowany .Miał 9 lat ,kiedy zaczął ćwiczyć z dorosłymi karate . Świetnie gra na gitarze ,kocha jazza i Matenego .Dla mnie Mateny jest nudny ...gada na tej swojej gitarze ciągle o tym samym....Kocham Ciebie Peterze.brogę -miało być brodę .... Mam dysleksję ,Pola I Konrad również ....Jestem praworęczna i lewonożna .

Um dos melhores guitarristas de todos os tempos: Peter Green!! RIP !!

Kocham Ciebie Peterze .........Chcę żebyśmy mieli ładne mieszkanie ...widziałam takie na filmie ...nie za duże ,nie chcę mieć dużo do sprzątania....

I remember "Coming Your Way" as 21 year old kid, and think of it now as having been fortunate to be "around" this music and considered songs like "Underway" and "The Green Manalishi" to be to my ears then as spiritually cool, in the way that we sometimes hear music that seems familiar, even if it is the 1st time to hear it. i suppose that might be an example of, "The Manifestation of the Transcendental Object in the Work of Art.", or an example that might give credence to the theory of it. That art is what "invites us back." Fleetwood Mac, and in particular, the Peter Green & Danny Kirwan, Mick Fleetwood, John McVie, and later Christine McVie, comprises my favorite 'Mac time, as lived then - but it was the hardest time; and that's how music can help explicitly well, like when we pause somewhere along the Way, and say, "Oh Well." Underway.

Green God

Thanks for the choice of songs. 4 great songs showing the power of the three guitarist. Peter's " Green Manalashi" kicks ass here followed by Danny's best contribution "Coming Your Way" and finishing with Jeremy doing his slide magic on "Stranger Blues". The outro of "Before The Beginning" shows the beautiful gift Peter Green was blessed with by mesmerizing us with music that was ahead of it's time. Bless you Peter for sharing your gift. Your music will play on ......

Rest in peace, master!

lovely! RIP Peter

Melhor e única verdadeira formação do FM!!!!!!!

Bass solo at 5.30 is by Peter Green. I was told this by , ahem, Mick Fleetwood when I interviewed him at the time this album was released. ( Apologies for name dropping). Certainly doesn’t sound like John McVie who I think plays a 4 string with his fingers, whereas this bass solo is played on 6 string bass by someone using a pick.

Fleetwood Mac after Peter were a shallow bag compared to Green's fiery ascendant blaze of sun & light on a blue world. Once BB. King was asked what he thought of the current crop of guitar heroes . He paused & said "How's Greenie going"? No one else was mentioned lol

wow! just wow around 7:68

The lyrics of green manalishi are on another level. Amazing recordings

Brilliant!

Kocham Ciebie.....za chwilę skończy się czas urzędowania kompa ..... nie wiem ,czy zasnę bez CIEBIE ,bądż ze mną najlepiej ,jak możliwe jest tej nocy....Pa ,pa.....Aha ,kocham WAS wszystkich z FLEETWOOD MAC .....mój ukochany ksiądz w Nakle nazywał się MAC

I'll be darned I hear a wa wa pedal at 32;28! tHANKS dIMITRIS:)

Great music,thank you,rip peter

A kind of re-birth ,even with a sadly departed.

Grande Peter Green!!!!!!!Descanse em Paz!!!!!!!

Mooie improvisatie

Kocham CIEBIE PETERZE GREEN - Bozena ZIELONA

I wish you also had Danny's name in your title, particularly since you had so many photos of him or with him in them. I thought he and Peter were the heart of Fleetwood Mac.

Dziękuję za piękną muzykę
