    Five and a half minutes of Take Me To The Pilot piano intro...what more can I say!
    If you are a fan of Elton John's piano playing then this performance is probably not new to you. This gem is from the 1998 Elton John Billy Joel face to face tour in Japan. This is probably one of my all-time favorite piano moments from Elton and shows so much of his different styles and improv abilities. I previously only had this available by download but I am now offering here so everyone can enjoy this amazing piano performance.
    In this particular video I did not mix in the MIDI file audio with the original so this will just show you what Elton is playing on the sheet music staff as well as the keyboard while you hear the real deal.
    Have fun learning this BEAST,
    Chris

    A showcase of Elton's genius. Great work!

      So true. If I was to show someone who Elton can do on the piano this is probably the one I would go to.

      If you have Synthesia, you can create sheet music off it

      Hey Michael, very kind of you. The more I do it the better I get I'm sure but, I think the greatest asset is probably patience. It is extremely time consuming and monotonous at times however it is rewarding to finally finish one and get it out to all of you who watch.

    I honestly loved this and was one of the greatest work you've done because it was super accurate to what Elton was actually playing.

      Hey Benji, thanks for the kind words. I am actually going to start putting up polls on the community forum so people can vote for the next video. I do love Pinball wizard though so I hope it's coming soon.

      Hi Matthew, I just had a chance to check out your channel. You definitely have the Elton John feel to your playing...sounds great! There should be a link to the midi file in the description of the video. I would love to see you cover this particular performance when you get it worked out! Keep up the great work.

      @chrisbarkerpiano Thanks a lot, appreciate that. I've started playing parts from it as part of a solo I do in Theatres with the band I'm in, I'll get a vid haha.
