Albatross
The Peter Green Splinter Group Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
As the lyrics to Albatross consist solely of the word “instrumental,” there is no deeper meaning to interpret from the words themselves. Instead, we must look to the music to find the message of the song.
Albatross is a timeless instrumental track that captures the essence of tranquility and calmness. It conveys a peaceful quality that is not usually exhibited in rock music. The melody is slow and soothing, and the guitar work displays a remarkable level of skill and artistry. It is a perfect showcase of Peter Green’s unique style, blending elements of blues and rock and showcasing his impressive fingerpicking technique.
The song's gentle, haunting tones make it perfect for relaxation purposes, and it has been used in numerous films, TV shows, and commercials. It is a rare example of a song that is purely instrumental yet still capable of evoking powerful emotions in the listener.

@John Harrison, I agree, I am 68, loved this song since it was first released. It brings me much peace, & calm, esp. when life gets so hard. I play it on an hour loop vidio I found on UTube!! Never tire of it, it's a BIG part of the soundtrack of my life, as is much of the music of Peter Green & the Original Fleetwood Mac.🎶💚🎶💙🌟💯
