Nope. Never had horn player or horn section live on the '74 tour. Song never played live, as well.

Thanks for the info. I guess it would've been too weird to play it without horns, when the horns are such a big part of the recording.

Somehow, if they had wanted to perform the song, they would have figured out some sort of arrangement. Tusk features lots of horns,yet they figured it out how to perform it live.

Technology plays a big role now. Yet, I liked the simple charm of how they first performed it on the Tusk tour, with Christine just playing an accordion in place of the marching band.
