Just wondering if that was Art Carney playing the piano in 99,000 Answer and Jackie Gleason playing the cornet in "Man with a Horn". We never see Ed's fingers moving across the keys so I am assuming he wasn't playing. I know Jackie Gleason wrote music, so even if he wasn't playing the cornet that good I got a feeling it was him. Could anyone confirm these?

They were playing those instruments, yes. Carney could play the piano, and Gleason dabbled with the horn now and then. Several times he and Sammy Spear would play a duet! :lol:

I guess he got his high note after all :D

The picture is kind of funny, his face looks so big compared to the other persons.
