Gabriel w/Green question

[wetcamelfood]

Naturally, yesterday, I ran out and got the Peter Gabriel "Up" CD (and the John Lee Hooker tribute CD as well but one thing at a time! ) which has Greeny playing guitar on the song "Sky blue". Now, thematically, it sounds very similar to "Ngankarrparni (Sky blue - Reprise)" which Greeny also plays on from Gabriel's "Long walk home ("Rabbit Proof fence" soundtrack)" CD as we had discussed a while back and it should be obvious from the title similaries right?!

So, I know I'd need to hang on to the "Long walk home ("Rabbit proof fence" soundtrack)" CD for Greeny anyways as he also plays on "Cloudless" from that CD but what I'm trying to figure out is if they used the SAME RECORDING of Greeny's guitar on this new "Sky blue" version for the song from the "Up" CD or if it is in fact two different recordings of Greeny's guitar parts as although there are words and everything in this new version which makes the SONG different, the only thing that concerns me as a fan (in the way I personally collect) is trying to find out if they just sampled it from the previous CD (which would, as a Greeny fan collecting the way I personally do, make this "Up" CD "redundant" for my collection, the minimalist that I am!) or if it was another recorded take (in which case I would hang on to this "Up" CD) or what? I know Peter Gabriel is usually pretty good at listing what he samples and it doesn't say anything about it in the notes to either CD (in regards to the relevant tracks/imstruments anyways) but I guess I just wanted to check with Mario and any other expert Greeny ears out there to see if they know what the deal is on this. I can't really tell from listening to it myself so I need some help.

The guitar part that I do hear that "could" be Greeny (as there are a few guitar players on this track) on the "Sky blue" from "Up" is definitely LOUDER than it was on the LWH(RPF) "version" but I noticed that there are 3 guitar players listed on the credits for the "Up" "version" of the song whereas there are only 2 guitarists listed on the LWH(RPF) version so could this account for the extra "loudness" on the new "version"? Though we know this session took place this summer, there are no specific listings in the CD booklets to either release that would give us an indication as to if it was recorded (and released) in two different takes or if they simply used the same guitar part on both tracks.

Any feedback on this would be greatly appreciated as I'm just trying to find out so that I'd know if the "Up" CD is in fact "redundant" for my FM collection or not. I hope to hear from someone soon on this topic here.
