- At the request of Rob van Unnik who graced us with so many unique Peter Green uploads I uploaded "Albatross" from the Fleetwood Mac concert at the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam (midnight concert on 28 February 1969, so actually it already was 1 March). Here's another song from this concert: "Coming your way", a Danny Kirwan song.
Although Danny's widely featured on this one Peter Green is also doing a lot of guitar work. As usual Jeremy Spencer doesn't seem to be on the stage when he's not the featured band member. The audio on this song is not as good as on the rest of the concert. The radio sound engineers were clearly not aware of what was happening on on the stage and they seemed to be struggling to find the right sound balance. So there's a lot of panning and fiddling on the faders. So the levels are not up to par, but as it's a historic recording who cares?
I only hope this Greek git Dimitris Koutsiaftis doesn't steal my video again............... Although I don't claim to hold any copyright to the sound nor the pictures used I think I'm entitled to the credits for the work I put into this. So please don't copy this to earn money with it, I don't!
R.I.P. Danny Kirwan so sad so few cared about your passing. If only Peter Green had not fried out and this lineup could have much more music together. Danny and Peter could have been the greatest dual leads ever.
could have been? there WERE
@@coldacre big loss. incredible synergy. danny held on for two years after, maybe Peter was more in the background than we knew.
@@coldacre exactly!
Who are better dual leads than them anyway?
@@zeljkofatzek3670Dickie Betts and Duane Allman were no slouches
The Original Line up of Peter Greens Fleetwood Mac will always remain as my Favourite.
The original lineup did not include Danny Kirwan. Do you really mean the original line-up with Bob Brunning and Jeremy Spencer?
Peter was a great mentor, but Danny became his own master very quickly. If ever there was a meteoric rise and fall it was Danny. An absolutely incredible talent. He is my favorite of any Mac version. Talent way beyond his years.
Magnetron33 Danny was my friend. He was an awesome talent and a lovely guy. Very sadly missed. Rest peacefully Danny and I’ll see you later. Thanks for all the laughs.
Ditto everything you say,
@@LeonDonnelly23 no Leon, he was not your friend, your "friend" was Danny da Costa NOT Danny Kirwan. You have no clue and that interview you did on radio was an embarrassment and you need to retract all satements you made in regard to Danny Kirwan.
I'd take Danny's lead guitar playing over Peter's anyday!!!!
@@chrisnolan5607 Danny helped Peter with some of Peter's finer songs with Fleetwood Mac but without Peter Green their would have been no forum for Danny to play. Peter opened a door for Danny and was able to keep Danny in the right mindset to Excell. I am glad you have passion for Danny, he was a unique player with amazing results while being mentored by Green . I myself defend Danny but he was no match for "The Green God".
They're firing up a jam in heaven tonight. Rest in peace, Peter Green and Danny Kirwan.
The Peter Green/Danny Kirwan era guitar sound of Fleetwood Mac was unmistakable -sweet, soulful, deep, subtle and gutsy. I saw this line up live in 1969..... they had an awesome stage presence - tight and LOUD A F.
the best ever.
The albums Kirwan played on was my favorite FM era. He was right up there with Peter but he just wasn't the big name. Criminally underrated not just as a player, but a songwriter as well. A shame he was in the state he was in the last decades of his life because I'm sure people would've been interested to hear more stuff from him.
Mr. Timebomb Man I knew Danny from the mid nineties for some years before he left to live in Holland with his Dutch Girlfriend. Danny was happy, in love and working. Just not in music. He was not mentally ill or an addict of any sort when I hung with him. Just a very kind, witty and caring man. A great loss. RIP Danny Kirwan.
Mr. Timebomb- the Peter Green Danny Kirwan version of Mac was my favorite. Three guitar players have influenced me to my soul. Early Clapton, Django Reinhardt, and Danny Kirwan. I know it's in their lefthand vibrato. A guitarist feels his soul when he squeezes out those notes and they travel up your arm thru your heart to your brain and back. Danny was 1 year younger than me. Hell, I almost named my first kid Danny.
These two were fabulous together. They complemented each other. Danny was so fortunate to have Peter as his sidekick.
Mate. You don't know how correct that you are. If you think about it I bet you will see that they two players two instruments but only one. There is just no-one who can play in and out of tonics and 3rd's like them. Even their rough house live playing is beauty in blues. Just loving reading all the posts from people like me and you who just love the stuff that the two of them did together as one.
and equally Peter was so lucky to have Danny. someone who could not only play on his level, but push him when jamming
R.I.P. Danny Kirwan
Just listen to the energy and excitement in this recording! You can really hear the youthful exuberance of these two driving each other on. This was recorded at a time when this sound was fresh and new to young white listeners and these 20 something Brits approached the original recordings and artists (from which they drew inspiration) with a kind of religious reverence that it's impossible to find today.
Great track. I loved this as the opener for Then Play On. Discovering this live clip the same day i learned Danny has died is rough, though. man............Rest In Peace Danny Kirwan.
RIP Danny Kirwan :( AMAZING talent
Danny’s contributions to the Mac catalogue are amazing. I love his songs on the 5 albums that he played on with them and Woman of a Thousand Years to me, is up there with Stairway, Cortez, and Rain.
r I p dannny kirwan gonna miss you, a truly great guitar player.
Danny was always in awe of Peter, who kept telling Danny to be his own man as he was already a fantastic player !
Fantastic! I love Peter Greens music and guitar playing and voice, but I think Danny Kirwan was a one off too...that vibrato and all.. amazing!
RIP Danny Kirwan
R.I.P. DANNY, YOU WERE AS GOOD AS PETER, SOMETIMES BETTER, MORE TAY-STEE, I HAVE ALWAYS TRIED TO PLAY LIKE YOU, BUT I DO NOT HAVE YOUR FINGERS, MY HEART GOES OUT TO YOUR FAMILY, THANKS FOR THE MUSIC, COUSIN FIGEL
What an amazing guitar player Danny was and his voice was so cool.Listen to this song on"Then play on"awesome!!
RIP Danny
Rest in Peace Danny
Guitar playing from Heaven.
Only took me 6.5 years to find this. What a gem! Great photos too.
This is just the sort of intensity I'd expect from this lineup. Totally over the top.
Top class as always with Peter & Danny playing together, both brought different styles but sublime together .🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
Have a good trip Danny Kirwan.
Priceless. What a historical treasure. Mmmmmmhhhh...
Too great. Those two guitars together = magic. Talk about getting dynamics. Thanks for this great post.
The most amazing guitar line up taken away from us all too soon.!?!?
Danny, we miss you...
Love the video and the stills. This is an FM gem. Thanks,
A masterpiece, I must say
Danny! 💕🌺🌹
F-ing unreal. Thanks so much. DKW your post was under my radar till now.
I love the riff Green plays along with Kirwan's voice. Great early version.
Kirwan. Class act.
danny kirwan was as critical to fleetwood mac as anyone.
He was great, and will be missed for many years. His music is now classical.
Then play on in heaven❤❤❤❤
Danny was the Brad Whitford of the Mac. The secret weapon. All props to them both
Mick sure loved those toms.
thankyou Gibbo for this.. and some great pics i not seen before..
great photos
danny boy u were Mr cool
Fantastic guitarist beautiful tone sadly missed
super song and excellent drums at the end of the song¡¡
grande kirwan mis respetos como tambien al mejor ( the ... best) peter green.
Quite the pair!
Fantastic! Quality
This is closer to the album version. A lot of live recordings head off into a wild jam early in the song. This is great. Green and Kirwan understood their respective roles perfectly
Kiln house is my favorite album of all time.
The best duo ever!. Rip maestros
The only Mac I listen to.. keep up the great work.. the Greek will pay his toll in the end!
So long Danny
He passed away on Friday
Haunting Danny K.
Perter Green was a great guitar player who owns a lot of his legend to Danny Kirwan.The amazing playing of Danny Kirwan remains annonimous or underrated,but most of the best guitar work on Fleetwood Mac is that of Kirwan masterful playing
You are wrong .Danny was a great guitarist in his own right.But Peter was legendary before Danny ever played a note with Fleetwood Mac.Peter ttold Danny what he wanted him to play in all of Peters songs.Listen to Peter with JohnMayall'sBluesbreakers And you'll hear whatI'm talking about .Nobody made zpeter a legend except Peter himself
@@georgeburnham8984 Since it seems that you are being treated with a certain affection, I am not going to argue with you about whether PG played better or worse than DK. I will only tell you that Danny and Peter played together for many years, and that in Fleetwood Mac they were both two sides of the same coin. Their duets were true wonders of the electric guitar that created a school and that have rarely been heard at that level of excellence.
always my favourite member of the original FM. sadly the mic doesn't pick him up very well, a grossly underrated performer who (you may not agree, just my opinion) could play Peter Green under the table … and sounded a lot better singing …. RIP Danny
Kirwan was great, but PG outshined everyone in the freeform jams.
Danny had the "savage vibrato", not Peter.
Buckingham has no idea how lucky he is to have survived the Fleetwood Mac guitar curse. well, survived so far at least.
lol
And Jeremy Spencer too.
@@chrisnolan5607 hes a pedophile so he'll live a long life
1969: COMING YOUR WAY
1977: *G O Y O U R O W N W A Y*
Excellent early photo at 2:11 showing Danny’s Watkins Rapier guitar in use.
DANNY...❤
Heal yeah !
Man, I hope the rest of the band wasn’t thrown off by Mick Fleetwood’s coming in at double the tempo of the studio version!
Gibbo, could you share the video of 28 February 1969 to my timeline on Facebook or share it with me here on CZcams. I am living in Amsterdam too and a huge fan of Peter Green. Sad Danny passed away. Much too young. Thanks in advance, Treeske Soentken
Kinda funny and chronologically "fucked up" how Danny Kirwan and Stevie Wonder "60's era" musicians born on the same day May 13th , 1950 but are a day YOUNGER than Billy Squier , an early 80's bubblegum rocker, "Lonely Is The Night" , yeah THAT Billy Squier. That's like pretty fucked up...the guy singing "Everybody Wants You" in 1982, I was 12 at the time and remember all the girls in my grade went ga ga for him.....but he's a "day OLDER" than a jaded but talented Danny Kirwan who was in Fleetwood Mac from '68 to '72 and a blind piano and singing phenom that had hit singles like "Uptight (Everything's Alright)" in the mid 60's....am I missing something here???
Cubby and the blissards keep on coming!!!!
Danny a had absolutely no confidence in himself as a guitar player, he was so much a great player and underated that vibrato he had was something else so sad about his demise there is a documentary on his life on CZcams interesting. Essex lad as I am wish I could play like him.
Where is there a documentary on Danny's life?
It's on CZcams
After he left his band he never played another note in fact he spent most of his time in the pub he sold the Strat he had for next to nothing and his family went to the shop he sold it to they took advantage and only paid a fraction what it was worth and they got it back.
@@brianfoster5702 Can't find it anywhere.
I only found it by chance and I didn't look for a link.
Only person worthy of dueling Mr.Green
here's hoping the duo are playing on . . .then play on
The original Mac...the real Mac
Hé Gibbo, bedankt voor de upload. Ik zie dat je contact hebt met Wouter. Hij weet alles van The Mac.
Yo hear Fleetwood Mac's "Go on your own way". I listen Fleetwod Mac's "Coming your way". We are not the same
An old Kodak Carousel projector, Kodachrome/Tri-X...what more is really any better?
Hoi Gibbo, Ik zag je vraag aan Rob (die van mij de opnames met JM 1967 heeft gekregen, ik kan niet zulke mooie filmpjes fabriceren als hij) over het tourschema. Ik heb het tourschema van 13 augustus 1968 tot en met 27 mei 1970. Leersum was 27 september 1968. Zou je mij willen mailen wouterpuntvuijkbijziggopuntnl?
+Wouter Vuijk Doe ik Wouter.
Damn, Mick. Slow down!
I think there were stimulants used or too much strong coffee as they are rushin the beat a bit. But I still LOVE it! I like the bend at1:56 then again its different than the record.
Excellent, thanks for sharing this. Does anyone know what's happened to Danny? I can't seem to find any info on him. Last I read, he was homeless, then living in a hostel. I really pray and hope he's doing ok.

***** Thanks for pointing me to the article.
You are welcome mate.. :)
danny is alive and well. living with his ex and her partner. lives close to peter but i dont know if they have spoken or done anything. danny has been picking up his guitar more often. lets hope something happens. pray for a miracle. thats exactly what a reunion would take. 🙏
Babyhowdy233 thank you for sharing. I found info from a man on fb who told me Danny was ok and not to worry. a man who interviewed him in the 90s.
AWESOME! Grewan Lpg's ........
Hey a bunch of warm thanx, great version but Coming your way does not appear on the Concertgebouw bootlegs or set lists! What was your source?
Only Gibbo would, but I speculate that it's very likely from the amsterdam concert. The boot recording is only 37 minutes long and Tallahassee Lassie cut out half way through. I assume the set went much longer. How Gibbo obtained this classic version is the mystery.
@@RobbyByrne I'm also curious! Of the 27 versions I know of, none of them is 4'11 in length (like this one). However, I do not HAVE all those versions...
Which is which?
flawed recording & the tempo is racing much too quickly (I much prefer the studio recording).....certainly not their best, but the original Fleetwood Mac remain one of my favorite British Blues Bands from the 1960's...
We're lucky to have this stuff at all. The quality isn't too bad at all. I've heard far, far worse bootlegs.

I love Danny's contribution to the early Fleetwood Mac and especially his work on the Then Play On LP. But their was some pressure Danny could not handle being mentored by Peter. One instance came as Danny had a tantrum after a gig in which effortlessly but unwittingly Peter had once again outclassed his protege leading to Danny throwing a beer bottle at Peter . According to Fleetwood Mac's road manager "they both knew that at the bottom of it was the fact that Peter could do things on guitar that Danny would just about dream of." As much as I love Danny's vibrato and style he was no match for "The Green God" .
No!
To add context, that played out after Peter came back due to Spencer quitting. It was also after one of those long jams which Peter was famous for. I don't blame Danny for getting angry. Peter quits, Danny is left to carry the band, Peter comes back egging Danny on.
Those drums are not doing it for me at all.
This version is way too fast !!
Well, that's the way it was played, innit?
Hear the Drums...a Slashing...We will Go!
