There's a terrific Peter Green documentary, "Peter Green, Man of the World", which is a great watch & strongly recommended.
It's two and a half hours long but well worth watching if that's your sort of thing. It's quite a painful watch at times, as he "lost his mind" (literally) mid-life, after which he always seemed a very troubled chap.
It always struck me as fascinating that while Mick Fleetwood lived in Hawaii, in a beautiful mountain-top retreat, Peter lived all of his life in..... Canvey Island.
Apparently he only took drugs a couple of times and on the second time a reaction to a bad batch gave him severe mental health problems for the rest of his life.

Thanks for the music.

At one time, they struggled to get gigs-as a result, they supported people who admired them and their music.
Fans as diverse as Keith Richards, John Denver, the Clash and Amy Winehouse.
Sadly, in this country only really known for Monkey Man.
If you want to appreciate their depth of music, try "54-46 was my number" or "Country Roads".
Legend.

And here's a take on it by my favourite band Sublime, one of many bands Toots inspired.
