PETER GREEN
Peter Green was the guitarist faced with the unenviable task of filling Eric
Clapton’s shoes when he quit John Mayall’s Bluesbreakers to form Cream
in 1966. Green was a total unknown at the time but, like Clapton, he too would leave after recording just one album, A Hard Road, in 1967. Bluesbreakers drummer Mick Fleetwood and bassist John McVie also soon followed, providing the rhythm section for his exciting new project, Fleetwood Mac.
Peter Green’s Fleetwood Mac (as this era of the band is generally referred to) reigned from 1967 to 1970 and recorded three studio albums. In addition to Green, Fleetwood and McVie, the core band members also included Jeremy Spencer (vocals, slide guitar, piano), and later Danny Kirwan (vocals, guitar).
