    To say "an old estranged fiancé of mine called Paul" and singing Paul's song was actually quite an affectionate gesture and remark because it shows Paul still meant a lot to him even though they were on non-speaking terms at that moment. But this is what happens with true friends, you can quarrel, you can go on separate ways but you still have strong feelings and you still care for your dear friend.

      at that point they had "made up" and hung out. Paul hung out with John and Ringo during the "Lost Days" in LA, which led to this night, where Yoko showed up in the audience and they reconnected.

      They met up with each other in 1972 during John's long lost weekend and in 1980 re-established contact to start working together after Macca's song "Coming up" inspired John to make a come back to music.
      In fact, when John did his concert in MSG he phoned Paul to join him on stage but The Wings' tour schedule prohibited him from flying over.

      Technically not true. John appeared before a live audience with his "Walls & Bridges" studio band on the Salute To Sir Lew Grade' TV special. The show was shot at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel on April 18, 1975 and broadcast shortly thereafter. He performed Slippin' And Slidin', and 'Imagine'. It was a rather surreal performance since John wanted to "send a message". But technically that was his last performance, about 5 months after the Elton John concert.

    Elton played piano and organ, and sang harmony vocals in Lennon´s "Whatever gets you through the night", and during the recording of the song Elton bet Lennon that it would be a chart topper. As Lennon didnt believe it would, he agreed to perform live with Elton if it did.
    The song topped the Billboard chart on November 16th, and this concert was 12 days later.

      It's interesting that you say that. For as flawed as he was, I see him as somewhat of a sage. Nobody grew more as a person in the spotlight than John Lennon. He literally transformed from a young punk, vile, cynical, violent, bigoted, delinquent, to a wise, honest, love-spreading, peace advocate. I see him as more a philosopher and artist than a "rock god". It's truly amazing and inspiring!

      John and George both really came to disliking live performances, partially because of the bad experiences of the Beatles world tour years. Ringo and especially Paul were more natural performers with huge audiences (like Madison Square Garden). John had been on stage a bit after coming to the USA but it really wasn't his goal. Sadly, he was putting together a tour in 1980 when Double Fantasy came out, but alas, fate would intervene.

If he was going to play something off the first Beatles album he could have done one of his own songs like Please, Please Me. Bravo John.

      I disagree. It was very generous given the infighting that was still going on with Lennon and McCarthy. They became friends again, but they were still not saying the best of things to each other publicly. I'm sure Elton's band could have played just about any #1 hit that Lennon wrote and sung for the Beatles. He actually mentioned Paul in a kind way too. I don't remember Paul doing anything like that back then.

Virtually no ordinary people had film cameras back then, and even if they did the cameras were very primitive. No sound capabilities. Picture only. My dad had a cine camera, but no sound capabilities. To enable a basic cine camera to record a soundtrack would have taken a lot of preparation and extra equipment. Only people right down the front would have had enough light to film by. And 2. Filming pop concerts back then wasn't allowed anyway.

    That was a nicely produced video tribute to Johns first appearance on stage in years, and the last night of his "lost weekend". Yoko was backstage. After the show, they reconciled their differences and John went home.
    This being 1974, and technology being what it was, not many shows were video recorded. When they were, it was a big do.
    At least the audio was recorded. So, we at least have that to enjoy.
