Elton John’s seven million selling (in the US alone) seventh album, topped the charts on both sides of the Atlantic in 1973. The prolific Elton’s second album of of 1973 was described by Rolling Stone as “straight ultramodern British music hall revue,” but regarded by many fans as his outstanding masterwork, included in Q and Rolling Stone’s greatest 100 albums of all time. A double disc tour de force, it featured four singles; ‘Goodbye Yellowbrick Road’, ‘Saturday Night’s Alright For Fighting’, ‘Bennie And The Jets’ and ‘Candle In The Wind’. The latter of course, originally a tribute to Marilyn Monroe, eventually became the biggest selling single since records began when it was remade as a tribute to Lady Diana in 1997. |
