Elton John Advocates for Recognition of Unsung Keyboard Legends

Elton John calls for greater appreciation of 1960s keyboard players who have been overshadowed by guitar icons.

Elton John highlights the lack of recognition for keyboard players from the 1960s, despite their significant contributions to music.
He cites musicians like Brian Auger, Graham Bond, and Ian Stewart as pivotal yet underappreciated figures in rock history.
John contrasts the enduring fame of guitarists like Eric Clapton and Jimmy Page with the obscurity of equally talented keyboardists.
He reminisces about his own early career experiences and the influence of these keyboard pioneers on his music.
Elton's call for recognition follows the recent passing of Zoot Money, a notable figure from the 1960s club scene.
