"Collins unusually uses mallets on his drums during the flute solo and Gabriel also plays oboe during the 'Old King Cole' section. Banks and Rutherford both play 12-string acoustic guitars, while Hackett whispers melodic phrases with his Gibson Les Paul electric guitar during the 'Old King Cole' section before playing the lead electric guitar for the rest of the song. During his brief tenure with the band, Mick Barnard added guitar parts towards the end of the song while in rehearsals, which the band liked. Hackett kept both the guitar parts from Phillips and Barnard, while adding his own pieces to the song as well."

I've taken the above out, as a presumptive edit in a CCI. It's been unsourced since it was added a decade ago. It can go back if a suitable RS can be found, and paraphrased. KJP1 (talk) 06:50, 31 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Yes, first added by an IP here in May 2014. I restored the text, with a slight re-write (as it looked to me like simple description) and added a [citation needed] tag? But could not find any source. Martinevans123 (talk) 10:02, 31 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
