Mick Fleetwood & Friends Celebrate The Music Of Peter Green
Written by Johnson Stephen on November 26, 2020
On February 25, 2020, mere days before the first case of Covid-19 was discovered in the UK, as the ongoing pandemic necessitated the suspension of modern society, a very special concert took place at the Palladium in London celebrating the songs of Peter Green and the original incarnation of Fleetwood Mac.
The audience at that sold out show witnessed something unique and this show now takes on a particularly poignant meaning, with the unfortunate passing of Peter Green in July 2020.
The incredible one-off celebration will be screened on 23rd / 28th March 2021 in cinemas across the country, distributed by Cinema Live.
A Deluxe box set of the event will be available on various formats Friday 30th April 2021 Via BMG
The players gathered were an all-star cast and all of the musicians present that night had a deep and frequently far-fetched, cosmic connection to the songs.
The participants that night included Neil Finn, Noel Gallagher, Billy Gibbons, David Gilmour, Kirk Hammett, John Mayall, Christine McVie, Jeremy Spencer, Zak Starkey, Pete Townshend, Steven Tyler and Bill Wyman. Legendary producer Glyn Johns joined as the executive sound producer and the house band featured Mick Fleetwood himself along with Dave Bronze, Jonny Lang, Andy Fairweather Low, Ricky Peterson and Rick Vito.
Mick Fleetwood, who curated the list of artists performing, said ”The concert was a celebration of those early Blues days where we all began, and it’s important to recognize the profound impact Peter and the early Fleetwood Mac had on the world of music. Peter was my greatest mentor and it gave me such joy to pay tribute to his incredible talent. I was honoured to be sharing the stage with some of the many artists Peter has inspired over the years and who share my great respect for this remarkable musician.”
