The late Peter Green’s haunting blues have etched an indelible mark on music history. Founding the iconic Fleetwood Mac, his mastery overshadowed personal battles with mental health.

Peter Green, the legendary guitarist and founder of Fleetwood Mac, was often whispered in the same breath as Eric Clapton, with some aficionados daring to rank him as even more gifted than ‘Slowhand’ himself. This extraordinary talent, however, was juxtaposed against a backdrop of personal struggles and mental health challenges that shrouded his life in a bittersweet mystique.

  • Green’s influence on the late 60s British blues boom is undisputedly profound.
  • Despite his meteoric rise, Green’s life was a complicated tapestry of triumphs and travails.
  • The gifts he gave to music are forever tinted by the shadows of his personal demons.

When fans and critics speak of the blues, they invariably summon the name of Peter Green. Green’s genius on the guitar was such that his performances were often met with awe and reverence. Yet, for all the adulation, the man behind the strings remained an enigma, the quiet storm raging within him as tumultuous as his soul-stirring solos.
