Lindsey Piano Work

[David]

What are some of your favorite piano or keyboard parts Lindsey plays on any of the Mac or solo albums?

I've always loved his piano arrangement on "September Song" on his '81 album. The arrangement is probably borrowed or adapted from elsewhere, but it is used intelligently & humorously within the framework of the track he develops. The arpeggiated figure -- ticktocky & nonstop & funny in its monotony -- laids the groundwork for the track, the same way that drums & bass are used ordinarily for that purpose.

It's a Fats Domino pastiche, essentially, & it's one of the comic high points on the album.
