Eric Clapton is usually thought of as John Mayall's most important right-hand man, but Peter Green has to be heard to be believed!
The future Fleetwood Mac founder leaves a strong stamp on his only album with the Bluesbreakers, singing a few tracks and writing a couple, including the devastating instrumental "Supernatural."
Green's use of thick sustain on this track clearly pointed the way to his use of this feature on Fleetwood Mac's hits "Albatross" and "Black Magic Woman," as well as providing a blueprint for Carlos Santana's style.
Highlights include the uncharacteristically rambunctious "Leaping Christine" and the cover of Freddie King's "Someday After a While (You'll Be Sorry)"
Side 1: A HARD ROAD / IT’S OVER / YOU DON’T LOVE ME / THE STUMBLE / ANOTHER KINDA LOVE / HIT THE HIGHWAY / LEAPING CHRISTINE
