Free Music Review: What a pleasure to hear Peter Green in this remastered gem!
Hit: 5 Stars
The real question is "sonically" how does this "Remastered" CD sound.... That's what most care about, how was it remastered, was the mix done well, and of course, the music....I just listened to a 1969 live Mac show, a great show as a matter of fact. Peter Green what a master playing live, just entrancing, killer playing....However, the mix really sucked...John McVie bass can not even be heard throughout the CD... and Fleetwoond's drums were mixed so annoyingly out in front, one could never miss Mick's pounding bass drum playing on every cut, and that's the ONLY bass one hears on the whole Album...it's as if McVie just took the night off....or the sound board mixer was a drummer who believes drums are the lead instrument. Green's guitar comes through well, but it was still behind the drums. What a way to ruin an otherwise great live performance of Fleetwood Mac at their peak in early February 1969.
However, on John Mayall's A Hard Road.....Bluesbreaker John McVie's very steady bass playing comes though loud & clear. "A Hard Road" may even be the best of all British blues albums ever recorded, including blues albums from Clapton, Lee, Page, Simmons, Beck, etc. This CD is excellent, and may even rate with any of the top rock/blues albums ever recorded, all with such feeling, not bad for British boys...Everyone was on top of their game here, great songs arrangements & engineering - RS 1968 - "Peter Green stands out just as much as Mayall on this album, as Green is such a clear contrast to Eric Clapton on the Blues Breakers. Here Green makes impeccable use of great phrasing above anything else; his style comes out in many places as very relaxed as opposed to Clapton's strong attack.....Like Green's playing on the slow songs on A Hard Road such as "The Same Way" and "Someday After A While" Green's style on cuts like this is beautiful and relaxed, a real contrast to Clapton's savage frantic-ness on Blues Breakers on "Have You Heard" for example.
Peter Green can also play savage Claptonesque guitar - Just listen to Green's 12 bars on "Dust My Blues." Green's technique is certainly very good too - His playing on the instrumental "the Stumble" makes that very clear." Very hot!
And YES, the Remastered sound is as excellent as the music. A truly great & classic CD remastered.
