| Fleetwood Mac – The Green Manalishi Lyrics

As in most blues-rock songs (although this one was well on the way towards psychedelia), the lyrics pale againt the instrumentals. And here, Green's solo, and disturbingly distorted wailing, convey his growing insanity and despair far more poignantly than the almost trite lyrics do. |

This song is assuredly by Fleetwood Mac. Peter Green wrote it for English Rose, he's given songwriting credit on Abraxas, and it hit 37 on the UK Billboard charts. And you'll observe that nowhere on the Santana version does anyone sing "I want you to love me." Santana breaks into Gypsy Queen instead. In any case, this song's a cool little bit of blues/rock mixed up with some Latin music. Pity Green and Spencer had to totally flip out on acid. I've always figured the lyrics were the standard blues nonsense that just sounds nice and bemoans unrequited love.. |

Willie Dixon was on cocaine? It's amazing the things you learn on this site. (are the sarcasm tags working yet?) |
