On That Note: Give Us Your Keys

I dig all of those. Forbert is example of performer I should explore further (another element of that sample -- has the double-up - piano AND organ).
Wow, that piano intro is almost exactly like the Elton John Border Song riff! At least it sounds like it to me.
I posted this in the songs with literature title references. Leon is a piano guy, of course.
O-M-G, I never noticed similarities of the intros.
In defense of my oversight, I rarely listen to Elton John and Black Sabbath back-to-back.

If I hadn't just posted the EJ one I probably would not have made the connection either.
Maybe another topic for OTN, "Songs that appear to have lifted bits from other song."

Trying to stay away from the obvious piano men (Burt Bacharach, Neil Sedaka, Elton John, Billy Joel), but DO need to include my favorite Carole King:
Then there's a couple of familiar movie themes:
And a pair of instrumentals, one from the 60s
and one from the 70s

A bit of a segue, perhaps, but delving into the realm of TV themes that also got airplay, well, you can't go wrong with a little Mike Post and possibly the most famous opening riff of notes in TV theme history...you can name this song in three notes...
Another Mike Post:
A Joey Scarbury:
And a Gary Portnoy:
And one more movie theme:
