These albums were around in the late 1980's in America. Again, Mick Fleetwood made sure the early Fleetwood Mac would not be uncovered until the "Rumours" band quit. If it wasn't for the internet, and youtube, Peter Green would be some lost soul who joined John Mayall for six months.

Why would that be forgotten...?

It wasn't Mick Fleetwood who threw a tizzy-fit about playing songs from pre-75 incarnations (especially after July '77)...that was one of the other members. So, Mick's not on the hook for people ignoring prior incarnations (at least in the '80s)...NOW? Well, that's a different story. BOB WELCH, BOB WELCH, BOB WELCH!!!

If you'd read Guitar Player magazine, there's RARELY an issue that the name "Peter Green" DOESN'T appear somewhere in some interview about being an inspiration.

From '75 onward, everytime Fleetwood Mac released a new album, the entire back catalogue would get a bump in sales.
