How come we know elite producers like Alan Parsons or Glyn Johns, but no one discusses Gus Dudgeon? Get a decent pressing from his Elton albums on the turntable, and it's a sound experience. And that band!

@@Irockthere4 They were more than great musicians. The band (Nigel, Dee, Davey) created the parts of the songs for their own instruments (with no input from anyone, including Elton), and wrote and created the backing vocals. Bernie doesn't get enough credit, but the band more or less gets none, which is a shame.

One song that really speaks to me lately is The Border Song. It’s on his first greatest hits album - although it’s not a song that gets much attention anymore - but it really should because it’s more relevant than ever. You really should hear or consider reacting to that one. Thank you for such great reactions. Subscribed! 😊

BROS, I was very fortunate to see Elton "live" in the St. Paul Civic Center. His concert was one of the most memorable times of my life. Friends I'd made there and I rushed to the front of the stage. In an interview Elton was asked how long does it take him to compose the music for one of his songs, and he replied "oh sumthin around 10 or so minutes". As a very young boy Elton was admitted to London's Royal Academy of Music to study piano. ( Comparable to the Juilliard School of Music). Please react to "Mona Lisa's and Mad Hatters"; and also from Goodbye Yellow Brick, "All the Young Girls Love Alice". THANK YOU!

My step father was a lead guitarist in a country western band. We listened to both kinds of music in our house...COUNTY and WESTERN. I was maybe 8 years old when I heard Don McClean's American Pie and I was 10 years old when I first heard Elton sing Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. Those were the first hints I got that there might be some other kind of music out there than what was played in our house.
