Guy Babylon - Elton 's long-term keyboard player has passed away

Babylon was born in New Windsor, Maryland. Growing up listening to the likes of Led Zeppelin, Yes and Gentle Giant, he attended Francis Scott Key High School and then moved on to the University of South Florida, earning a BFA in music composition. Upon graduation, he moved to Los Angeles, California. In 1988, he joined Elton John's studio and touring band, appearing on the album Sleeping With the Past. In 1990, he appeared with the group Warpipes, a side project of fellow Elton John member Davey Johnstone. 2001 was a good year for Babylon, as he won an Grammy Award for his contributions on the Elton John / Tim Rice musical Aida. Babylon also worked extensively on the Elton John / Bernie Taupin musical Lestat, (based on the Anne Rice novels). Until his death, he lived in Los Angeles with his wife and kids, and was a member of Elton John's six-member touring and recording band. He died of a heart attack on September 2, 2009, while swimming in the pool.

Guy, We will miss your musicianship and your artistry. Not many could play behind Elton John but you made it happen for two decades. Your music is your legacy. I don't know who will fill your shoes but it will never be the same. Ride softly into the light my friend. And Rest In peace.

R.I.P. Guy babylon

It takes a lot to play second keyboard to one of the rock piano players of all time. I play piano myself and I couldn't visualize myself playing piano next to Elton John. When he first wanted to add a 2nd keyboard player in the mid 70s, several players turned him down flat. It wasn't until he found James Newton Howard that the tradition of the 2nd keyboard player began. There were really only 2 that had any longevity: James Newton Howard and Guy Babylon. As a die-hard Elton fan, I was incredibly stunned by the death of Guy. He was an incredible musician and incomparable artist. You would have to be to walk in the shadow of Sir Elton John. 21 years in the second chair of the Elton John band in an incredible feat. On the last few albums he was starting to spread his wings as an arranger for the strings that played on the albums. Again,following in the footsteps of Buckmaster and Newton Howard. I saw Guy play with Elton on several occasions and I say as a fellow piano player. Guy, We will miss your musicianship and your artistry. Not many could play behind Elton John but you made it happen for two decades. Your music is your legacy. I don't know who will fill your shoes but it will never be the same. Ride softly into the light my friend. And Rest In peace.
