I just bought some thing of his in Bandcamp where he processed a bunch of songs through resonators it’s some other electronics and Albatross appears there as well.

I love both line-ups (and to a lesser extent the long "transitional" phase in-between), but Peter Green's Mac will always be my favorite. I love virtually everything they did to bits, even the loose jams they did at Chess Studios in Chicago right after New Year's Day in 1969. I just wish there had been more opportunities to see Green and Danny Kirwan play together, they were terrific fronting Fleetwood Mac. Terribly sad that personal struggles prevented any real chance of a strong revival of that line-up.

Saw him live with his band of younger musicians in 2010; he was quiet and sat while he played (the second guitarist did most of the vocals and crowd interaction) but when Green kicked off Albatross you could hear a pin drop

“Rumble” certainly right up there, but apples/oranges.

I've come around a lot on Bare Trees since reviving this thread last year. Now I think I like it about equally as well as Future Games, just different. I couldn't remember if people liked Penguin or Mystery to Me the best so I bought a used copy of Penguin that is coming today and it appears I chose the wrong one! Is Penguin bad? I'll tell you in a few hours.― Fetch the Bolt Thrower (PBKR), Saturday, May 2, 2020 8:45 AM (one year ago) bookmarkflaglinkMystery to Me is much better― Blues Guitar Solo Heatmap (Free Download) (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Saturday, May 2, 2020 9:53 AM (one year ago) bookmarkflaglink

^^^This!
I just bought a copy of Mystery to Me and it's so good. Worst song is probably the Yardbirds cover, but even that, the jam at the end is pretty sweet. Everything else is B+ to A+ and the sound is very nice. So many details I never noticed the couple times I streamed it.
