Search - Fleetwood Mac, Peter Green :: Jumping at Shadows: The Blues Years

Two CD set. In the Summer of 1966, when Peter Green replaced Eric Clapton in John Mayall?s Bluesbreakers, nobody had heard of him. When he quit, exactly 12 months later, he was already being hailed as a potentially greater guitarist than Clapton. He promptly formed Fleetwood Mac with former Bluesbreakers John McVie & Mick Fleetwood and slide guitarist Jeremy Spencer, later adding a third guitarist, Danny Kirwan. This compilation concentrates on Mac?s Blues sessions, recorded between 1967-70, showcasing Peter Green?s talents as a singer, songwriter, and a simply devastating guitarist. It acts as a ?fly on the wall? documentary of the band as these are largely outtakes, alternate takes, and unreleased cuts from their first three albums. During this period Peter also guested on a couple of albums by the Brunning Sunflower Blues Band and made several home recordings with Duster Bennett, the veritable one-man Blues band. Several of these sides are included to complete a unique package. Castle. 2007
