Remembering the Prolific Peter Green

Over the weekend, the music world mourned the loss of the legend, Peter Green. The singer-songwriter and guitarist was famously known as the founding member of the hit band, Fleetwood Mac.

Green passed away in his sleep at the age of 73, according to a statement from his family’s solicitors, Swan Turton.

Hailed as one of the most prolific guitarists in the music scene, his solo pieces were known to be emotionally-driven, gentle and maybe even a bit melancholic. Now, while Peter Green led Fleetwood Mac for less than three years, from 1967 to 1970, he truly helped skyrocket the band to fame with his contributions. Following his departure, Green went on to became one of the world’s best-selling hitmakers in the late 1970s.

And so, to celebrate this legend, we’ve decided to look back on some of the finest moments from his career.
