    This is an outstanding acoustic guitar arrangement of one of the finest, most intimate songs ever written. Thanks for sharing it. I play Man of the World myself but not like this, especially with the self contained solo, which is delicate and sublime.
    Is this entirely your arrangement?
    If so I'm highly impressed, and love some of the chord inversions you used. It sounds as though Peter used similar, if not the same.

      Hi Maxwell, thanks for this, feedback means a lot. It's one of the songs that made me learn the guitar, I had a Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac CD a long time ago and spent many, many hours figuring it out and playing versions of it. Came up with this after I got into fingerstyle a few years ago, basically just putting all the bits together that I'd been playing for years, so I guess it's my arrangement (if you can ever call covering someone else's song 'my arrangement', bit of an insult to Peter me claiming anything of his genius!). Thanks again. Planning on giving Albatross a record soon if I can finish a version that works right without upsetting the guitar gods.

      @@gjrobinson8072 I know what you mean.
      I also go painstakingly from bar to bar on an acoustic with a song I really want to learn, takes time but always worth it in the end.
      Last year I finally achieved this with "Classical Gas" (Mason Williams), an instrumental on classical guitar I was particularly fond of since its release in the 1960's. So never too old to learn.
      I now play it slightly differently using "hybrid" picking (flat pick and fingers) so I can make it loud enough on a steel strung acoustic in a pub, but keeping fairly close to the original.
      Ditto Peter's "Oh Well" part 1. Maybe I will get round to Part 2 some day.
      Look forward to your arrangement of "Albert - Ross", as Greeny used to call it! I wouldn't worry about upsetting the Guitar Gods, many of them mince it up rotten which I know Peter hated hearing.
