This story made me think about all sorts of people who have turned down interviews.
Usually, they fall by the wayside. Forgotten. They said no.
For me, this serves as a reminder to keep trying for those really intriguing stories.
Mick Taylor, the guitarist who quit the Rolling Stones during their heyday, would not talk to reporters. He lives in a run-down house. He has never collected a royalty check. He's never publicly explained why.
Until now.
