Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac - Live 1970 Full Concert featuring Black Magic Woman
Before the live recording titled "Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac - Live 1970," Fleetwood Mac was riding high on the success of their self-titled album, released in 1968. This marked a pivotal moment for the band, as they transitioned from their blues roots—fronted by legendary guitarist Peter Green—to a more expansive sound that would eventually help define rock music. The performance captured at Ungano's in New York on November 30, 1969, showcases the band's orchestration during this transformative period. With tracks like "Black Magic Woman" and "Jumping at Shadows," fans get a raw and intimate glimpse of their early stylings, fueled by Green's emotive guitar work. It's also worth noting that this era was marked by Green's intense creativity and later struggles, which would influence the band's dynamic in the years to come. His exceptional talent left an indelible print not just on Fleetwood Mac but on the broader music landscape.
