In his first pop incarnation, Neil was never seen at the piano, he just stood and sang (and snapped his fingers) like Bobby Darin and others of the early 60's. But in his 2nd incarnation (circa 1975), he was a "piano man", much like his good friend Elton John and a then up-and-coming pop star named Billy Joel.
Absolute incredible talent! And to be looked over by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame makes ZERO sense.

He is good as a classical pianist, but I like his singing better. Thanks for sharing.

Grand Neil! Hey though, "I've Got Secret "was a farce, they all knew the secrets which is very obvious from the arrogant panelists stupidity

I wonder if this appearance had something to do with the Russians finding out?

The bridge melody of the chopin piece was made into a popular song called I'm Always Chasing Rainbows made famous by Tin Pan Alley.
Alice Faye was going to sing it in Rose of Washington Square but they cut it out because the film was already too long.

He wrote Splish Splash for Bobby Darin.

Isn't that a great story? Ha ha the joke was on the Soviets. Sedaka was just about as wholesome a guy as you can get!
