Simply one of the best guitar players that ever existed. In the early days Fleetwood Mac was often referred to as "Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac". Many, many years later when The Stevie Nicks/Lindsey Buckingham version of Fleetwood Mac played in London the press tracked down Mr. Green who was somewhat down on his luck at the time. He was asked that, given the massive success of the current Fleetwood Mac, did he ever regret leaving the band? He replied "yes I regret leaving the band. I regret having started it too."

In the early days when the band consisted of Peter Green, Jeremy Spencer, Mick Fleetwood and John McVie, one of the earliest albums was called "Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac with Jeremy Spencer". This was a nifty way of getting all four band members names into the title. Green is also the one who gave Fleetwood Mac it's name. And he came up with it even before John McVie joined! How could he not join at that point? The band was already named after him. ;D
