I need to hear this. I think I have this album, but I doubt I've sat down and listened to it. I've only heard his Fleetwood Mac stuff when he was with them in the '60s, but I've ignored his solo stuff unfortunately. Will check it out.
Also, fantastic review, Jamie. I'm loving your progress in both quality and quantity. I'm so glad you got the bump up.

yo, Captain. Long time no see. Hope all is well. And yeah man, I dig Peter Green.
|
| |
Thanks Hernan, appreciate it.
|

@Cap
I'm good. Just doing school mainly and other stuff. Good to see you around, man.
|

One of my friends has a copy of this man's Les Paul by Edwards Guitars. Plays and sounds like a dream.

wah wah heaven [2]
Great review, Jamie.
|
| |
@block: Nice, I bet it does.
Thanks Jethro.
|

I quite like this, very jazzy with some psych vibes, really nice sounds.
Great review, convinced me to check it out :P
|
| |
Thanks man. I'm hoping the review helps highlight some of the subtleties of the album and its relation to Green's mental state, as for me that's what makes this really special.
|
| |
Yeah I can see that. I don't know much about the man, so I can't say I have the same connection with it as you do, but it's definitely interesting to know the story behind it. Might check out some other works by him, but I want to let this sink in first.
|
| |
Although it's a lot more subtle (and obviously less vocal), the atmosphere here reminds me a bit of Nick Drake.
|
| |
Have you heard Fleetwood Mac's Then Play On? That's pretty much the essential Peter Green album.
|
| |
Nope, only thing I've heard from them was Go Your Own Way and Green Manalishi. I assume Peter Green had nothing to do with the former haha
|
| |
Haha no, only the latter which is one of his masterpieces.
|
| |
Yeah bro, it's great to see my review has inspired people to check this out. I'm sure your enthusiasm towards it has helped somewhat too.
|
| |
Wow thanks bro, appreciate it :]
|
| |
really need to give this a proper listen, the first track rules for sure
cant read the review atm though im too busy rockin but i'm sure its a corker
|
| |
Gotta check. Excellent review Jamie
|
| |
To be honest the first track is one of my least favourites on here. It's still awesome though, just doesn't hit me as hard as the others.
Thanks Atari.

Got my Heavy Heart 7" in the post today.
Now to track down a copy of Beasts of Burden (the other single from this era).
