Thanks for digging up that Peter Gabriel interview, dino!
I guess my question remains how Peter Green was "enticed" into playing the session for Gabriel, what made him decide to take up the invitation to play. I'm sure it will be more difficult to find the answer to that.
It really would be interesting to find out the invitations to play on a session or to play live that Peter Green turned down. Martin Celmins mentions at least a couple of them from the early '70s in his book (Noir and Stone the Crows come to mind). Were there other instances of this during that period? And what about during the late '70s - early '80s, and since '96? Anyone know of other offers to play that Peter turned down? And the reasons why?
