As for "when am I ready?" You'll never be ready. It works in reverse, you become ready by doing it. - pmbomb
Was in awe even though he wasn’t the same man I knew from my father’s records

R.I.P. One of my big heroes.
I saw him in 1969 with the Mac and in 1970 jamming with Snowy White.
Early this century I saw him with the Splinter Group but he shouldn't have been on stage that night IMO.
It was in his fingers.
Apologies, I've been at the rose ...
Catch you on the other side Pete.
I get the whole search optimization thing and easy to monitor thing of course.
Plus, maybe there's a rule I've missed. But just wondering. :-)
I find so much blues rock stuff interminably dull, even some of the recognised greats that you’re meant to revere. For me he was on a different level - he had something so special - his Fleetwood Mac had brilliantly original songs, wonderful playing and he could really sing too.
Rest well PG
There are many guitar players who have had a longer career with more albums, tours etc etc - But in many ways part of the magic of Hendrix, Kossoff and Pete Green is that it all happened in such a short period of time - Yet in that time they laid it all out on the carpet and inspired so many other players, then, now and will do so again in the future - Certainly a sad loss to all guitar players - Go rest in peace now Pete and thanks for some of the finest licks, tunes and melodies we'll ever hear
BB was commenting on how the British 'invasion' as they call it gave many of the black blues players over there much more exposure as the American kids finally found out about blues players. Him , Buddy Guy Otis Rush etc, and I think it's fair to say that some of them started to make a good living then rather than just being club circuit musicians, honourable though that be..
He was mildly complimentary about the British players but did admit that the only one who gave him anything near sleepless nights was Greeny. No more 'Jumping at shadows'. RIP.
RIP .
