Johnstone's first work was with Noel Murphy in 1968, where he received his first album credit. He had been doing session work with Noel and his band when one day producer Gus Dudgeon asked Johnstone to play on Bernie Taupin's self-titled 1970 solo album, which resulted in a meeting with Elton John and Johnstone playing on his 1971 album Madman Across the Water. Johnstone was then welcomed into Elton John's band full time. Johnstone released a solo album, Smiling Face, in 1973 through Rocket Records. He has also appeared with other artists like Leo Sayer, Bob Seger and Rod Stewart, to name a few.
