A sprawling double album of Elton's peak songcraft, from 'Bennie and the Jets' to the title ballad. Lavish and tuneful. His masterpiece. Released in 1973, it's a key entry in Elton John's run.
On vinyl: Vintage copies and modern reissues both circulate — worth comparing condition and remaster notes before you buy.
