I'm Lucky

Postby A Renee on Mon Oct 19, 2009 2:19 am

I recently got to hear this song after searching for ages ( :D ) and I have a question for anyone who knows-

Is that Craig playing piano? I know he's said he doesn't play during gigs because it would be terrible (which I don't believe!). But given that this is from the early, acoustic days and it's recorded.....

So, does anyone with the actual single know? Maybe in the credits?

Thanks!!
A Renee

I've heard that it is Craig playing. I don't know how reliable the info is though. Perhaps someone could ask him!

He said his computer is on the blink and he gets on sometimes at work. I know, I miss him.
I wonder about this too, Renee.

I heard an interview with Craig and he said he did play the piano on that. And no when you normally record you don't play and sing at the same time so yes he could have and did play the piano. Craig is not only a pianist, he is also a harpman (plays the harmonica for those who don't know the lingo) and a drummer.

I'm still here, but as Bobby said, I can only access through my work computer. I'll look on the Vinyl tonight to see whether it tells me.

I can confirm that Craig is indeed playing the Piano on I'm Lucky. Well spotted, I hadn't ever noticed, never even occured to me.
