@bsizzy17 Or it could be the latter part of 73 because EJ's piano doesn't have all the sequins like it did when he toured America.Check out the concert when he did I Saw Her Standing There.Also,I think his costumes were more outlandish in 74 than they were in 73..Plus,Ray didn't wear a hat in concert in 74 either..Have to look into that one..Either way,it's still a great video..
@bsizzy17 I looked it up.Just to make sure...I tried to add a link to this message,but it wouldn't take it..Go to yahoo and type in "when ray cooper joined elton's band"..I think it's all experts dot com or something like that..
@bsizzy17 It probably was..I was just going by the cover on his piano,which maybe he could use this one on his tours for England,Australia and so on and then use the sequined one for America.Even though he used that one on the Christmas in London dvd,which is on youtube..I do know in the doc Elton John and Bernie Taupin Say Goodbye to Norma Jean and Other Things that it was this cover on his piano and that was recorded in 73...oh,well,still a great video!

Definitely 1974. I wagged school with my mates to go early and get a good spot at the Melbourne show!
