The day Peter Green created Fleetwood Mac – iheart

So much is said and documented about the Fleetwood Mac group, but more and more people seem to know less about the roots of the group, as the composition that crashed into the mainstream in the 70s is the one that most people associate with the name S

However, those who know will quickly understand that they even think they are considered a pop rock band, Fleetwood Mac was for the first half of his Blues Rock Band career.

Peter Green was a hot and coming guitarist who gathered with drummer Mick Flitwood in the Shotgun Express group, who also included young Rod Stuart. Green would let the group join John Mayall Bluesbreakers after Eric Clapton’s departure from the group’s group. Green would suggest Mayall to invite Flitwood later to join the group when drummer Ansley Dunbar left to join Jeff Beck’s group, so Flitwood was inside and bluesians were composed of Green, Mayll, Fleetown bassist John McVie.

Following their success in the group, Green and Fleetwood will let them create a new group they want to include MCVIE. And John’s names. McVie didn’t want to leave Bluesbreakers, so Flitwood and Green will recruit a slide guitarist Jeremy Spencer and bassist Bob Brunning to debut.

On Sunday, August 13, 1967, at the National Jazz and Blues Festival “Peter Green’s Fleetwood Mac starring Jeremy Spencer” would take the stage for the first time as Brunning as he knew that if John Makuqui ever changed His opinion, he would have to give up his place. The band has only played a few brunning performances, as Maki changed his mind and will officially join the group that shares his name. Fleetwood Mac’s debut album of the same name was released in 1968 and introduced the hit single “Black Magic Woman” and “Need Your Love So Bad”. The Fleetwood Mac will be one of the best blues groups in the UK, but will eventually start to change its sound when Green will eventually leave the band. Years later, the transformation will be complete when Lindsay Buckingham & Stevie Nicks joined and the pop version we know today will be complete.

For those who know, Peter Green’s great legend was personified in the group he created, even if the group’s history had already darken his participation. In the end, the group will be introduced into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, and Green’s name will be among the industry’s reminder that Fleetwood Mac is his creation.
