Billy and Rick weren’t picked because they were inspirational artists, they were picked because opening night was 55 days away and the band was behind schedule.
Billy was in their inner circle. They’d all worked with him, they knew he knew the songs, and that he could sing with Stevie and Christine. Rick was an in-demand sideman who was a fan of Peter Green. Furthermore, Billy and Rick had a working relationship.
It saved a lot of time and got them road ready by opening night.
