The Green Manalishi

Written by peter green.


Now, when the day goes to sleep and the full moon looks
The night is so black that the darkness cooks
Don't you come creepin' around - makin' me do things i don't want to

Can't believe that you need my love so bad
Come sneakin' around tryin' to drive me mad
Bustin' in on my dreams - making me see things i don't wanna see

Break:

'cause you're da green manalishi with the two prong crown
All my tryin' is up - all your bringin' is down
Just taking my love then slippin' away
Leavin' me here just tryin' to keep from following you

flamencoprofI have a CD similar, "Recorded live during a residency at the Tea Party Club in Boston". I have it in reserve to play to any younger person who says they like "Heavy Rock".

Geoff Wells
Geoff WellsAwesome Greeny proves his genius with his amazing 6 string Fender bass solo. I don’t know of any of the so-called great blues guitarists matching this?

wabwee60The swan song of Greeny’s three year guitarist/singer/songwriter career. Such a brilliant light, just couldn’t burn any longer.

Adrian WilkinsonThis what Peter Green could do. Amongst the most powerful demonstrations of guitar/bass ever recorded . This up there with the best Hendrix.
