Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars Strong anthology of Green's early solo work post-Mac.......2003-03-19

At first it seemed that the Green Manalishi had sucked Peter Green out of this world. After he left Fleetwood Mac, Green was lost in a whirlwind of confusion. He disappeared from the public eye until 1978 when he re-emeged with In The Skies. Although it's clear that his demons weren't behind him, he was still able to make compelling music. This collection gathers the cream of his best solo work from 78 through 82. It was a brief, but ultimately rewarding time for fans of Green's work.

While the songwriting wasn't always up to the standard that Green had established in Fleetwood Mac, the stand out tracks collected here compare favorably with Green's best. Little Dreamer recalled Albatross without borrowing too much from that classic single. There are many moments that recall Green's best work scattered throughout this collection. Even the less than stellar songwriting still provided an opportunity for Green to shine as a guitar player.
