Offered to Roger for himself?  Do you mean for Roger's solo albums?  That is 
curious.  I had thought all of them tried to establish themselves as 
individuals through their solo careers, and it seems strange that Pete would 
have offered his songs to Roger.  It just didn't seem that relations were 
running that way.  If he did, I still can't imagine Roger singing some of 
those songs, though.
