Blues for Greeny — студийный альбом ирландского гитариста и вокалиста Гэри Мура, изданный в 1995 году на лейбле Virgin Records и посвящённый знаменитому блюзовому гитаристу Питеру Грину. В альбом вошли десять песен, написанных Питером Грином, а также «Need Your Love So Bad», написанная Литл Вилли Джоном[3]. Гитарные партии на альбоме были сыграны на гитаре Грина Gibson Les Paul 1959 года выпуска[4], которую Грин продал Муру в середине 1970-х годов[2]. В этом альбоме Мур играет очень похоже на Грина[5]
