Reeeeeally love Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac, the best incarnation of the band imo. But for me, it's hard to pass on Santana's. Their Latin American and African touches add so much.

That's like tryng to compare a Turner and Constable painting.
Both are great but in different ways.

As for me I would go with...

Like both.....Green's version was of course more about the blues , but Santana did a very good polished radio friendly version that bled into Gypsy Queen by Gabor Szabo ...an Hungarian jazz guitarist.
Going with Santana for that reason but lets not forget Peter Green wrote it.
