Early Elton John's a bit different. He was yet to become the pastiche pop star. Tumbleweed Connection drew on Bernie Taupin's cowboy fetish to excellent effect, and is an album of a distinct country-rock Americana feel. Try these:
mp3 Elton John: Come Down in Time
mp3 Elton John: Country Comfort
Recorded at this time is the original of a great song:
mp3 Elton John: Madman Across the Water
I recently posted Bettye Lavette's outstanding cover of Talking Old Soldiers here.
Buy the album here.
