Like all of you, I love to listen to a song with Peter singing and playing his guitar. I'd love to put together a CDR of Greeny's post-Mac recordings where he is the one singing, and playing the guitar - or at least a prominent guitar part. With all due respect to the wonderful musicians he's played with, I'd like to be able to pop such a CDR into the player and just listen to Pete.
So if any of you folks might find the time and desire to post such a list I would appreciate it a bunch. Thanks.

"In the skies" (1979) is the best album. Pete plays all the lead guitar except on "Slabo day" - that's Snowy white. And they both play lead on the titles track. On "little dreamer", "whatcha gonna do" and "white sky" he plays all the lead guitar, but the material on those albums is not as good (written mainly by his brother). Katmandu (1984) has Peter singing on 3 tracks, but he plays very little guitar.
I'd go for:
"In the skies", "A fool no more", "Tribal dance", "Seven stars" - In the skies (1979)
"Little dreamer", "loser two times" - from "Little dreamer" (1980)
"Last train to san antone" - Whatcha gonna do (1981)
"Shining star", "Falling apart", "White sky" - White sky (1982)
"Who's that knocking" - "Katmandu" album, 1984
Splinter group era - Peter sings and plays fine guitar on the following tracks-
"Lies", "Real world", "Running after you" (slide guitar) - Time traders 2001
"Blues don't change" - from the same album, 2001
And there's great stuff on the Live at Ronnie scott's album, a great version of The Supernatural.
