As you are now the official Costello's biograph ;-) please explain me why
Gary Peacock has refused to play with him on stage.
Because Peacock was being an elitist jazz asshole who almost ruined
Lee Konitz' birthday celebration by refusing to play with Costello and
Bill Frisell at Konitz' 70th (I think) birthday celebration in NYC.
The club owner wanted to refuse Peacock the stage but Costello said
that he wouldn't want to be responsible for a musician being so badly
treated and he didn't appear at the celbreation. Konitz, Frisell and
Costello actually attempted a bassless verion of the song in
rehearsal, but they all agreed that it "sounded like a three-legged
chair".
Where is Marc Johnson ? ;-)
