Peter Green Of Fleetwood Mac


Peter Green (born Peter Allen Greenbaum, October 29, 1946, in Bethnal Green, London) is a British blues-rock guitarist and founder of the band Fleetwood Mac.
A figurehead in the British blues movement, Green inspired B. B. King to say, "He has the sweetest tone I ever heard; he was the only one who gave me the cold sweats." Green's playing was marked with a distinctively keen vibrato and economy of style, as well as a unique out of phase sound from his 1959 Gibson Les Paul Standard. He used a Fender Stratocaster on the track Albatross, and used a National resonator guitar on Oh Well Part I.
