Despite being one of the biggest pop superstars and most popular recording artists of the 1970s, Elton John was initially viewed as a singer-songwriter, as these two classic albums illustrate.
This was THE album that was the spark that launched Elton's career, spawning the evergreen Your Song, which is perhaps still his most loved hit today - the album is still timeless and sounds, in this newly remastered form, as emotive and original as ever.
The latest Elton John album to receive the 'Deluxe' treatment, this exceptional package features a remastered version of the original album with the original track listing on disc one.
Disc two is expanded with 20 tracks, including 15 previously unreleased tracks sourced from various archives and live BBC Sessions. Many of the bonus tracks are piano demos, giving a fascinating insight into how the songs developed, from conception to the final versions that appeared on the original 1970 album.
