Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac

Over on my Vox blog I posted two old videos of duets by Stevie Nicks and Tom Petty, and during my YouTube searching I was thrilled to uncover some videos of the Peter Green era of Fleetwood Mac!

My love and knowledge of Fleetwood Mac (circa '69-'79) could never be encapsulated in one blog post, so for now I'll just share with you some videos from Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac.  This is before Peter Green went mad and left the band, before Stevie and Lindsey were even a glimmer in Mick Fleetwood's eye, and after UK kids were declaring that "Green is better than God" ("God" in this reference being the young Eric Clapton, of course).
