One time appearance. Played on one other song too.
Not even sure of his purpose as you can't hear a lick of piano. Maybe Sir Eltons piano was tuned to sound like a violin? That would seem more plausible than a silent piano and an invisible strings section.

Yeah, I figured it had to be something like that but instead of googling it I figured I'd share a killer song and let others here let me know.
Thanks

"Lick of piano" at 3:53 and 4:53. Something only the great and powerful Sir could handle. No one else would lick a piano so vigorously.

I'm not sure how on earth I could have missed those solos. Must be slipping in my old age.
//Maybe that was the UK-USA sound dubed version where 500 notes actually work out to one or two? Kinda like you see in old samurai flicks?

Wouldn't that be John Paul Jones favorite instrument, the Mellotron?
