Various shots performing with Adaya & Band in Switzerland May 2017 with what I consider a Holy Grail Les Paul. It's a 2008 Gibson Custom Shop JB Sig Goldtop ser no. 270 (of 300 run). Pickups are dynamic and massive sounding..only mod I've had done is having Lindy Fralin do front pickup magnet flip.

I've written an article...a small labour of love about Five Essential 'Live' Solos by Peter Green for Guitar Player Magazine. Original photo by George Wilkes Archive.

I also want to add a public statement to my article: I love Claptons early work and his role w/Bluesbreakers is key to PG's history. To clarify regarding my comments about Clapton. I am only stating in article that Peter Green's work was On Par/Equal to Clapton's best. Peter Green's work deserves to been celebrated along with Clapton. It's unfortunate that when I was growing up, I never even heard of Peter Green..cause nobody was talking about him...while Clapton was everywhere, I am Grateful for both musicians.
