The Elton John record album and music appreciation fan page!


Only recently have I begun to embrace the music of Elton John through the lyrics of Bernie Taupin.
Many have disregarded the 1st album, stating it was nothing more than a vain attempt at creating a
professional LP and a novice effort at songwriting, when in fact it was their best rock & roll record!
Why don't you be the judge? Set an hour aside to listen to the work of Bernie Taupin and Elton John
and I am almost certain you will agree with my decision. This is without a doubt an unpolished gem.
