Fact #30964
When:
Short story:
Guitarist Peter Green quits John Mayall's Bluesbreakers and sets about forming his next group, Fleetwood Mac. Full article:
Mick Fleetwood (drummer, Fleetwood Mac) : Peter and I came from very different backgrounds. He was an East End lad with a very definite chip on his shoulder - a Jewish boy who got beaten up. He got away from it, but it caught him up in the end when it all went wrong. We were extremely close partners and friends; he knew my parents very well. My father was a wing commander and Peter's approach - don't piss around, stay true to the fundamentals - had a lot to do with the way I was brought up. I found that easy to identify with and Peter knew that.
