Listen to 'Growing Up'. Its not credited (except maybe as 'sample
keys'), but there's some very clear tron (or chamberlin) cello on the
intro and in other spots.
I reviewed this earlier this year
(
http://freespace.virgin.net/andy.thompson/reviewsg.htm#gabriel), coming to
the conclusion that "Er, I couldn't hear it!". If it wasn't for the
inimitable Jon Brion's Chamberlin, I'd assume that it was more a figure of
speech than the real thing.
