By the way, Peter's first solo album after leaving FM---entitled The End Of The Game---was liked by some musicians I at the time knew, but was not to my taste. I haven't heard it since.

At that same time, the new Fleetwood Mac put out an album I loved, and still do---Kiln House. 

B.B. King said Peter was the only white guitarist who made him sweat. I guess that was a compliment. ;-) I heard Peter's playing first on the second John Mayall album, A Hard Road. I liked him even more than Clapton, who had been the guitarist on the first Mayall album.

"The Stumble"---a great instrumental on A Hard Road---led me to Freddie King, the song's writer and original performer. Even better yet! I wasn't able to see and hear Freddie live, but I did see Albert King, and realized where most of the white Blues guitarists had learned what to play. Albert King---talk about sweating!
