The point is... A lot of our favorite tunes with flute wouldn't have
been better songs if played by a great flautist. Songs like "Timothy
Leary", "The Actor","Are You Sitting Comfortably","Thick as a
Brick","Firth of Fifth".... None of this material would have
benefited if a "great session Flautist" had been brought in. (IMHO).

Would "ITWOP", "Epitaph" or "The Rain Song" been better if a session
keyboard wizard was brought in?
