I Love early Fleetwood Mac with Peter Green and I think he is one of the best blues guitar players ever, I decided to get a copy of this title because I was looking for “A Best Of “ and this was fitting right on what I was in need, but the records came so dusty, I think I was from the poor quality of inner sleeves that I replaced immediately for a rice paper lined sleeves, be prepared to do some record cleaning, and the sound is not to good

This is a must have for Rock & Roll Aficionado's & of fan's of "Fleetwood Mac" of the 70's to see where this bands roots were set! Song's penned by Peter Green like "Black Magic Woman", "The Green Manalishi (With the Two Pronged Crown)", " Rattle Snake Shake" & "Albatross" would eventually be as covered by other band's as the American Blue's artist that inspired the early Powerhouse Blue's Band known as "Fleetwood Mac" or as often referred to as "Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac"! As well as their awesome original material you also get there incredible cover version's of song's by the bands Blue's hero's like Elmore James's "Shake Your Money Maker" & as a bonus you get to hear Christen Perfect's cover of the Eta James Classic "I'd Rather Be Blind" a rare treat from her not so successful band "The Chicken Shack". Christine Perfect would become a better known member of "Fleetwood Mac" after marrying Bassist John M
cVie becoming Christine McVie. You also get the classic Rock standard penned by Peter right before leaving the band called "Oh Well parts 1 & 2 " If you don't remember the song by its title you may remember it by its opening lines( Can't help it Bout the shape I'm in , can't sing I ain't pretty & my legs are thin) & then the song breaks into a scathing guitar riff as memorable as the lyrics!!! With Drummer Mick Fleetwood & Bassist John McVie making up one of Rock & Roll's tightest bottom Rhythm section's ever, Peter Green & Jeremy Spencer & the addition of Danny Kirwan allowed for twin lead's & solid rhythm that helped make the early "Fleetwood Mac" sound so appealing that it would earn them a solid fan base in the U.K. at a time of giant competitors like "The Yardbirds" not to mention "The Beatles " & "The Rolling Stones" all of which were covering their American Blues hero's music... churning out what would become the British Invasion!!! I strongly recommend this particular collection of song's as a companion to "The Very Best of Fleetwood Mac" a 2 disc set covering the band's 70's line up & capturing that incarnation of Fleetwood Mac's song catalogue quite nicely bringing you right up to their most recent material! By purchasing both you get 5 decades covering the progression & growth of this very influential & timeless Band that gave the world of Rock & Roll so much great music! I know that there are a lot of Fleetwood Mac fans that are unfamiliar with the very first incarnation of the band & this collection of song's is hands down the best offering available so please get acquainted with the "Fleetwood Mac" America missed out on with this "The Best of Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac" Not only does it capture the best of their songs but it gives you the rare chance to hear "The Chicken Shack's" Best song!

4.0 out of 5 stars The ORIGINAL "Fleetwood Mac"!
Reviewed in the United States on October 24, 2013

I think it's clear by the title of this cd ("The Best of PETER GREEN's Fleetwood Mac") that this is not the AOR mega-band led by Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks that gave us radio hit after hit beginning in 1975, but in case anyone is looking for that lineup, I would recommend the 2-disc compilation "The Very Best of Fleetwood Mac".

THIS cd focuses on the more blues-based original lineup of the band led by guitarist-singer-songwriter Peter Green, vocalist/2nd guitarist Jeremy Spencer and the rhythm section that would provide the band name, drummer Mick Fleetwood and bassist John McVie. While the later lineup led by Buckingham-Nicks would lead them to new heights beginning in 1975, the 60's-era lineup led by Peter Green first put them on the map and this cd is a good document of why. This lineup released not one but two albums in 1968 that both cracked the top 10 as well as a couple of singles that cracked the top 40 (and one that went all the way to #1), so despite the more recognizable hits that would come from the Buckingham-Nicks led Mac a decade later, it's not like this early lineup struggled. Their success was an impressive feat considering that by 1968, the peak of blues-based rock bands led by the Rolling Stones, the Yardbirds and John Mayall's Bluesbreakers (in which Green served prior to forming Fleetwood Mac) had mostly come and gone, but the Mac nevertheless managed success during the brief time they were together. A third album would be released in 1969 before Green left the group in May of 1970.

Green himself was no doubt the centerpiece of the initial incarnation of this great band, with a guitar tone B.B. King himself described as "the sweetest tone I ever heard," and songwriting chops that led artists as diverse as Santana, Gary Moore, Aerosmith, Tom Petty and Judas Priest to cover his songs. And yet 2nd guitarist/vocalist Jeremy Spencer added a lot and the rhythm section of Fleetwood/McVie has itself become legendary, so this is more than a one-man show...

Highlights here include the instrumental "Albatross" (which reached #1 in early 1969), the soulful "Need Your Love So Bad," (another charting single), the original version of "Black Magic Woman" (which Carlos Santana and band would later make a huge hit) as well as the initial take on "Oh Well", which the Buckingham-Nicks led lineup would make a minor radio hit of when they featured it on their 1980 "Fleetwood Mac Live" album. The original take featured here is labeled as "Part I & Part II" with Part I being the main song the band featured live in 1980 and Part II being a mellow guitar workout that seems a little out of place as a coda to such a rocking song as "Oh Well", but... it (mostly) works. Other highlights include the moody and atmospheric "Green Manalishi (With The Two-Pronged Crown)". Collectively this is more than mere "blues" or "blues rock", but a great foundation of rock classics that would be built upon by other artists for decades to come.

Other songs like "Rollin' Man" and "My Heart Beat Like A Hammer" and "Something Inside Of Me" are more standard and straightforward blues styled songs as are covers of songs by B.B. King ("Worried Dream") and Elmore James (the classic "Shake Your Moneymaker"), but throughout them all Green's guitar playing commands attention. Frankly, I had this cd on my "wish list" for months and months but was hesitant to pull the trigger, but I'm glad I finally did.

Closing out the CD are two worthwhile tracks that are actually not by Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac, so perhaps should have been relegated to "Bonus Tracks" if included at all, but Oh Well. The first is a cover of the Etta James hit "I'd Rather Go Blind" as recorded by Chicken Shack, an early band featuring keyboardist/vocalist Christine McVie who would of course later join Fleetwood Mac. It's a great song and McVie's vocals are fine, but she falls short of Etta James' majestic vocal performance on her version of this song (who wouldn't?), so I personally tend to skip this one. Closing the disc is a Chris Coco re-recording of the Mac's early hit "Albatross" with guitar by Peter Green. With Green on board, the track merits inclusion here, but there's nothing like the original and I doubt many fans will prefer this newer version over the first take cut in 1968. It is nevertheless interesting and worthwhile and certainly doesn't detract from what is overall a great CD. Collectively, this is a solid testament to the importance of the early Fleetwood Mac and the talent of its first leader, Peter Green. Definitely recommended for fans of blues and/or classic or blues-based rock.
