From the 1971 Edsel Records album "Sing Children Sing." 
Lesley Duncan sang backup to Elton John on his early records and even contributed the song "Love Song" (she wrote it, played guitar and sang with Elton) on Elton's album "Tumbleweed Connection." Elton became familiar with her songwriting and contributed piano on most of the tracks to Duncan's album. It also features some of the same musicians that appeared later that same year on Elton's "Madman Across the Water" album, including Ray Cooper on tambourine, Terry Cox on drums, and Chris Spedding on guitar.
