Peter Green is of course the founder of Fleetwood Mac, while Mick Green was a member of Johnny Kidd & The Pirates, UK's best group of the early rock 'n' roll years (tho' Mick didn't play on Shakin' All Over, their most familiar song). --review seen at rateyourmusic.com
This releases contents was very much a surprise. In that it isn't a continuation of the laidback style Peter Green pursued on his mid- period wilderness solo releases such as "In The Skies". This is more akin in style of early Captain Beefheart "Safe As Milk" and "Mirror Man" era (not quite as adventurous as the Captain though). Green is singing in a funky/gruff throaty voice which "seems" to be stream of consciousness type lyrics. Fans of swamp rock blues, early Beefheart should enjoy this. Nice, tasty "subtle" guitar interplay by Peter & Mick Green (no relation) throughout. Pleasantly surprised being a fan of all the aforementioned. --review seen at rateyourmusic.com

PEREZ PRADO - Voodoo Suite ’55 / Exotic Suite Of The Americas ’62 @320
http://www24.zippyshare.com/v/46285634/file.html
The pairing of Perez Prado's two orchestral tone poems on one CD is something of an occasion to celebrate. Recorded seven years apart, The Voodoo Suite and The Exotic Suite of the Americas are the defining moments in Prado's long career as king of the mambo. Though The Voodoo Suite, with its larger-than-life orchestra -- six saxophones, three trombones, seven drummers, six trumpets, and more -- was equal parts a Latin dance band and a jazz orchestra, its tight charts by Shorty Rogers made it a dramatic beast to wrestle and a sublime one to listen to. For all the critics who had discussed Prado in the derogatory, The Voodoo Suite gave them something to listen to, because here was the first popular attempt at the marriage of Cuban, African, and jazz elementals ever attempted in a work that was essentially for the general populace a mood record. The loping horn arrangements, bluesy solos, and hypnotic drumming took it outside the realm of mood music and placed it squarely into the camp of progressive big band jazz. To prove it was no fluke, the original album was rounded out with the other tracks that appear here from another session: "St. James Infirmary," "In the Mood," "I Can't Get Started," and others which burned the Latin jazz flame just as bright. On The Exotic Suite of the Americas, Prado took a decidedly more laid-back approach and made his score more cinematic in scope and tone. Relying deeply on textured strings and found-sound objects to accent the jazz orchestra, this is 16 minutes of pure, exotic ecstasy. And again, Prado, always wanting to round out his records and give the paying customer something to sink his butt into, offered mambo renditions of "Son of a Gun," "El Relicario," "Midnight in Jamaica," and more from another session later in 1962. The folks at Bear Family have done a fine job remastering the original tapes and assembling the greatest-ever statements by Prado. This is essential. (Thom Jurek, Allmusic)

The first half of this album is an incredibly authentic-feeling, as well as truly entertaining, exploration of the development of jazz. It starts with hypnotic tribal chanting, then moves into ritualistic drumming and talking drums, and eventually ends up in a wild, Afro-Cuban big band jam. If this sounds academic at all, forget it. This album swings from beginning to end. I've had the album for 35 years, and I still look forward to hearing it. The second half is typical Perez Prado; hard-swinging Afro-Cuban big band mambo madness. (Voodoo Madness)

hi, "Two Greens Make A Blues" is an interesting album but the participation of either Peter or Mick Green is minimal. The album was put together by 'The Raven' aka Laurie Gane in his home studio. Full background can be found in Neil Slaven's liner notes to the version issued on Castle as 'Post Modern Blues' which can be found here at fleetwoodmac.net :
Post Modern Blues - The Enemy Within
Anyone else having a problem with 'Two Greens' file? Password not working for me... Really curious to hear this one. Last I heard Ed Deane he was playing with Nick Lowe's touring band...
Thanks. You can't go wrong with Peter Green, but what a strange combination -- Prez Prado???
Wow Gypie Mayo and Mick Green! Looking forward to hearing this!
A weird thing with the PEREZ PRADO (aside from its actual content,no doubt) is that the ZIPfile is completely empty, yet seems to be 145 megs in size....I've DL'd it twice...achtung!
two great items. As a kid Prez Prado (Patricia) was the first latin item I heard. Many thanks again again.
Peter Green..oscuro y muy bueno. Perez Prado..todo calor. Gracias desde España.
