Fleetwood Mac

Saw an interview the other day on CNN with Mick Fleetwood, Stevie Nicks, Lindsay Buckingham, and Christine McVie. Apparently they're getting back together for a tour (someone ran out of money?). The CNN crawl read "the original Fleetwood Mac back together. Seems they don't remember there was Peter Green, Danny Kirwan, and John McVie. How quickly they forget. I suppose there's a generation who only knows the "Rumours" era Mac. To me there were 3 Macs-the Green and Kirwan Mac, the Bob Welch Mac, and the group mentioned above.

Thanks for the explanation Mr. Nice and the correction re: Rumours. The thing about The Dance is that is doesn't really count because it is live and after the fact and it doesn't sound like the original studio track. But at least finally, Stevie did get it on her solo album in its original form.

Hey Misternice. Do you have the early Fleetwood Mac recordings with him in the band? Original Fleetwood Mac, Mr. Wonderful and English Rose are a little uneven but worthwhile. There's some overlap in content between Mr. Wonderful and English Rose (one US release, the other UK - if I recall correctly. Certain someone will step in to correct me if that's muddled). I especially like, Then Play On. There's no denying the guitar playing prowess of early Fleetwood Mac with Green, Jeremy Spencer and, a bit later, Danny Kirwan.

Interest in Peter Green's music will be rewarded. Wikipedia has a separate entry for his solo discography (just Google, 'Wikipedia Peter Green Discography'). Also check out Discogs, 'Peter Green(2)'. There's another Peter Green listed. The blues guitarist in discussion here is listed as Peter Green (2). Samples usually available at Discogs and Amazon, of course.
