Mark Charig didn't play the cello on Red. In fact Sid Smith nevermanaged to find out who played it, although he managed to talkto almost everyone else who has ever been involved with the band.

Right for once, it was a real piano played by JohnWetton and not credited.

Lots ofuncredited stuff on those albums - David Cross' flute parts, also to beheard on live stuff from the period (confirmed by DC, FWIW), MarcCharig's cello on 'Red'...
