Elton John / Greatest Hits - CD (Used)

Author: John, Elton

Format: Best of

Release Date: 23-10-1992

Details: Amazon.ca Elton John has always fancied himself a big-theme album artist, but because even his finest albums are spotty, his best moments, with few exceptions, have been singles. Greatest Hits collects nine of them from '70 to '74, plus one of those exceptions, the stirring faux-gospel "Border Song." If you overlook the weightless "Crocodile Rock" and the contrived "Your Song," this album shows why John is a superstar, especially on the big ballads, where collaborator Bernie Taupin supplies some interesting lyrics for his impeccable melodic hooks. The ethereal "Rocket Man" is a marvel despite its goofy premise, and "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me" remains the greatest pop moment of John's career. --David Cantwell Product Description Your Song; Rocket Man; Bennie and the Jets; Crocodile Rock; Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me; Goodbye Yellow Brick Road; Daniel , and more.
