  • He can basically duplicate his studio

    vocal live here, which is pretty impressive,

    he had 5 times the range back then too.

    Anytime you see him with his own hair,

    and ordinary glasses, you know you're

    gonna get some classic pure early EJ.

  • It's hard believe this Elton and the Elton of today are the same man. That is no criticism of the Elton of 2009, it's more a statement of praise to the young Elton. His voice in the early 70s is pure Americana; pure soul; sometimes pure country; sometimes even gospel. His range here is astonishing and the tone outstanding.

    How him and Bernie, 2 young English lads, could sound so brilliantly American is phenomenal.

    Blimey, Limey! I made a comment a year ago just to stir things up and it did :) and took a punch or two.

    When I read BareNaked's response months later, I had a good chuckle and went out to get some beer. It appears one of my mates decided to write that response while I was out. LOL! Thank you for bringing it to my attention.

    Now I'm going back to a more civil forum away from "the madmen across the pond". CHEERS and peace, bender!

  • @buzlno1 - Fuck off, you gimp.

    You were wrong and got called out on it. Don't throw your toys out of the pram.

  • The bit at the very end where Elton is just playing by himself is beautiful. It's amazing how one man can possess so much talent.

  • This song is more "country" that today's hat-wearing clowns in Nashville.

    Pure Genius!

  • I just wanna tickle Nigel's bare belly. JK, I love this masterpiece!

  • Elton John......the best through out history
