Album notes
Personnel: Elton John (vocals, piano, organ, Mellotron); Davey Johnstone (vocals, guitars, slide guitar, synthesizer, background vocals); Nigel Olsson (tamboura, drums, congas, background vocals); David Katz (violin); Leroy Gomez (saxophone); David Hentschel (keyboards, synthesizer); Dee Murray (electric bass, background vocals); Ray Cooper (tambourine, percussion); Kiki Dee (background vocals).
Generally regarded as Elton John's masterpiece, GOODBYE YELLOW BRICK ROAD is a double-album (on one CD) that includes several of his signature songs alongside a sprawling array of lesser-known (but by no means lesser) tunes. The hits included "Bennie And The Jets," a funky, falsetto stomper; the Rolling Stonesy rocker "Saturday Night's Alright For Fighting"; and the gorgeous title ballad. "Candle In The Wind," an elegy for Marilyn Monroe, which didn't become a certified hit until 14 years later, when John re-recorded it with the Melbourne Symphony. The fact that it wasn't released as a single at the time is testimony to the wealth of pop pleasures available here.
The swelling, synth-fueled overture of "Funeral For A Friend" gives way to one of John's toughest guitar-rockers in an 11-minute medley. "Grey Seal" is a piano showcase with a perfect verse-chorus-verse construction. The rocking "All The Girls Love Alice" is one of the era's most overt references to lesbianism, and "Harmony," the soft ballad that closes the album, may be John's grandest melody. Willfully eclectic and packed with great music, GOODBYE YELLOW BRICK ROAD bursts with the bold energy and undeniable talent that made John a superstar.

ELTON JOHN: GOODBYE YELLOW BRICK ROAD (1973, Rocket/Island) You are about to bid on an increasingly HARD TO FIND, GOOD CONDITION, DIGITALLY REMASTERED, ORIGINAL PRESSING CD (not CDR) reissue of this hugely popular classic by the legendary Elton John! Consisting of the original double LP's 17 tracks, this one found John perfecting his pop formula after a streak of more roots driven efforts. While just about every tune here is worthwhile, best moments include “Candle In The Wind”, “Bennie & The Jets”, “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road” and the hard rocking hit “Saturday Night's Alright For Fighting”! Add to that a stunning remastering job and you have a nice addition to any fan’s collection! Get it while you can!! Buyer should be aware that the CD does have a few very very light surface blemishes that in no way effect playback. Now with over 3925 positive feedbacks, you can bid with confidence!
