I am looking forward to the gig at Falmouth on May28th, the first time I've seen Peter since the Splinter Group tour with John Mayall several years ago.
Despite the details, the review is a good one, and (almost) accurate. At least the author of the article made sure to point out why Peter Green was so good until he retired in the early 70's. I would bet that Andrew Foley is a Peter Green fan. He went out of his way to point out that in his opinion, Clapton, Beck, and Page are overrated. Personally I wouldn't put Beck there, he's the true champion of the three. Just as Peter Green was left behind, Jeff Beck came in third in the popularity contest, yet he could smoke both Clapton, and Page in a heartbeat.
