Gary Moore's tribute to Fleetwood Mac guitarist Peter Green, Blues for Greeny,
is more of a showcase for Moore's skills than Green's songwriting. After all,
Green was more famous for his technique than his writing. Consequently, Moore
uses Green's songs as a starting point, taking them into new territory with his
own style. And Moore positively burns throughout Blues for Greeny, tearing off
licks with ferocious intensity. If anything, the album proves that Moore is at
his best when interpreting other people's material -- it easily ranks as one of
his finest albums. allmusic.com

Yes, you might call this a tribute album to Peter Green. And no, this isn't a
half-baked effort to cash in on the fame of an aging guitar god. Well, not much
anyway. Gary Moore idolized Green as a kid growing up in Belfast. Moore said he
first saw Peter Green in 1967 when he had just replaced Eric Clapton of John
Mayall's Bluesbreakers. He said everyone was standing there at the concert with
their arms folded like ok, Clapton's gone, let's see what you got. When he
started playing, and the room started resonating with a depth of guitar tone that
had never been heard before, Eric Clapton quickly became a distant memory, and
Peter Green had a smile on his face like he was thinking "it's my turn now"....
Moore never forgot Peter Green, and a year later he formed a band called Skid
Row. When Peter Green's new band Fleetwood Mac came to Belfast, this time Skid
Row opened for them. After the concert Green asked to meet Moore because he liked
his guitar playing. Moore nervously met his idol and they stayed up till the
early morning hours talking and playing guitar. After that night they became
good friends, and Peter Green got Skid Row signed to their first recording
contract.... Gary Moore never forgot that favor, and he pays Green the ultimate
respect here. He captures the Peter Green guitar sound so perfectly on this
album, that the first time I heard this I was shocked. He duplicates that special
guitar tone and that little B.B. King like treble on the end of a note so
perfectly, that it feels like the ghost of the young Peter Green was standing
behind Moore showing him every blues riff. Everybody knows nobody can take the
place of Peter Green. He could draw you in with his string bending, and then
burn a hole in your soul with his solos. There's no hole burning here, but you
will get singed a little. When you hear the songs like THE SUPERNATURAL, I LOVED
ANOTHER WOMAN, LONG GREY MARE, and SHOWBIZ BLUES, you'll feel like your hearing
Peter Green circa 1968 all over again. These songs are done with a lot of
passion, and are very close to the real deal. Moore says "Blues For Greeny" is
not a tribute album, but a big thank you to Peter Green for everything that he's
given.....Amen By Patrick Earley on amazon.com
