friend, this biography - firstpublished in 1995, now fully revised and
updated - challenges the acceptednarrative about why he left the band,
and what happened next. It tracks everystage of Green’s career, from his
semi-pro years playing bass to his rise tofame in John Mayall’s
Bluesbreakers and Fleetwood Mac. It also takes a closerlook at Green’s
solo material and the personal trauma that saw him hit theheadlines.

GreenSplinter Group and how his final band, Peter Green & Friends,
was formed. It also covers the last years of his life and includes
