• Arthur Crud from UkPeter Green never gave away all of his money to charity; this is untrue, a myth. He was unhappy/concerned etc about the band making lots of money, and suggested they give away some to charity, but there is zero record of this ever happening.
• Boleskine from TynesideA very underrated artist due to his musical "low profile" which is just how he likes it I am sure. A fantastic writer & musician, the world would be a sadder place without him. Music brings out so many memories and emotions and Peter Green writes from the heart. Thanks for your music & honesty.

• John Dearden from ThailandI met Peter Green a few times in a hamburger bar in Richmond, London in 1986. Over a course of conversations I asked him which of his songs represented him the most and he looked at me as if I had fallen off the planet. "Man Of The World of course." I went home and listened closely to the lyrics and I could see that he was basically saying what his view of the world was at that time. He hated the fame and money that was being thrown at him as he only wanted to write and play good music. When the song ends with "And how I wish I was in love" it showed that he needed someone to understand him.
• Karen from Manchester, NhMick Fleetwood paid tribute to his old bandmate in the Fleetwood Mac song "These Strange Times". He even uses the lines "I once had a friend/said he was a Man of the World" and "I wish I was in love". Haunting song, not actually sung, but "narrated" by Mick himself, with Bekka Bramlett singing background "Faith...have faith..." and his daughter adding dialog "Daddy, daddy, hold on; God is now here...God is now here..." It's on the "Time" album.
