    Aretha On Piano?

    I just posted a song in Word Association that reminded me of a question I have.

    Ben E King's version of the lovely Sam Dees/Frederick Knight tune, "Drop My Heart Off At The Door", has a stunning piano accompaniment that sounds to me like his Atlantic label mate, Aretha Franklin. Does anyone know who played piano on this tune?

    Did Aretha ever sit in on piano for other artists' recordings? I think her talent as a pianist has been eclipsed by her vocal skills.

    I believe she played piano on tracks from Sam Moore's PLENTY GOOD LOVIN' album.

    Interesting question. Aretha is a superb accompanist. Never thought of her doing duties for others, but it makes sense.
