Just a personal opinion:
I like Clapton's work slightly better for the Bluesbrakers. The Clapton BB album is breathtaking. I listen to it over and over again. A true masterpiece. Green was a great "replacement" but for me Green started to shine when he founded Fleetwood Mac. The three albums he recorded with FM bear so much incredible songwriting. The poeple that are suspected to be responsible for the toxic drink that kicked Green forever out of his life and he never really recoverd were Uschi Obermayer and Rainer Langhans who had a famous hippie commune. Uschi was one of Germany's most beautiful woman and she surely attracted Peter's attention so that he stayed at her house. In the documentary they tell no names, but it was her - I know - for sure.
Uschi Obermaier:
