How to get Jeff to talk.

When guitar legend Jeff Beck refused to appear on The Old Grey Whistle Test, his record label's plugger (promotions man for those unfamiliar with the term) resorted to extreme measures. He went to Beck's home in a chauffeur driven limo and took off his clothes during the journey for which he also brought bagpipes. When he got there he got of the car and started playing the bagpipes. Beck had not met the man before demanded he who was and what he wanted. The plugger told him, Beck told him that he would do the show on one condition and that the plugger would just as then appear on the show naked playing the bagpipes. The condition was met and Beck made his appearance on with the plugger fulfilling his end of the bargain at the start of the interview.
