Fleetwood Mac legend at Cavern

Daily Post

GUITARIST Peter Green - the man who wrote hit songs like Albatross and Black Magic Woman for his group Fleetwood Mac - is to make a rare appearance at Liverpool's Cavern Club. Green left the group in 1970 and for a while led an outcast life which saw him working as a gravedigger and being committed to a mental hospital. But by the end of the 1990s he was back working as a musician and gained legendary status. In 1996 he staged another comeback show in Buxton with his own band. The Peter Green Splinter Band with Nigel Watson (guitar, vocals), Roger Cotton (keyboards), Pete Stroud (bass) and Larry Tolfree (drums) have since established themselves as one of the best of the Story continues ADVERTISEMENT Last year they toured to the USA, Japan, Australia and New Zealand and this year have visited Europe, the UK and Canada. The band has yet to play Liverpool's own legend, The Cavern Club. But next week, they will be playing at the venue on ber 9 and 10. Later in the month the band will release a new DVD An Evening With Peter Green Splinter Group in Concert, filmed at shows earlier this year. Tickets cost £22 and are available from the Cavern Pub, 0151-236 4041.
