The Green Manalishi With The Two Prong Crown. In 1970 Peter Green had a dream and it was clear that all the members of Fleetwood Mac needed to give all their money away to save themselves. Mick Fleetwood and John McVie did not agree.

Cool! The first version I ever heard of this was the Judas Priest one; it was several years before I heard the original one.

Great! Thanks. I didn't even know it had been covered, but now I wonder how I got through the 80s without hearing the Priest version.

I also assumed it was a Priest song for many years until I found it was a cover. The song really does kick in all versions.
