Indeed, many have come to the end of the conveyor belt of life.
Gave us all so very much.

Hadn't heard the news until you posted Neil - very sad.
I saw Peter Green live many times in his heyday with the original Fleetwood Mac - a brilliant guitarist.
I also saw him a few times after his 're-emergence' - with the Peter Green Splinter Group but sadly he was a mere shadow of his former self & obviously still suffering with mental health problems.
Unfortunately too, the main guitar solos that he was famous for - including 'Man of the World' featured in your video clip - were performed by other guitarists in his band ...

Does the Orchid Ballroom still exist? Is it the Karting place on there or next to it?

The Orchid ceased to exist a long time ago - it changed its name several times over the years (at one point being called 'Cinderella's' I seem to remember) & the last time I went past it was a Gym ...

Lovely Martin, made when I was. Sadly the player, Todd, is leaving GOTD.

Oh my, I wish I had this skill base, just pure fun on guitars. I should have tried harder when I was 17....
Skip to around 8 minute mark to miss the tech and the good wishes to departing Tod:
