Here's one just for you other extreme-Elton-John-rarities collectors out there! A slightly alternate version of "The Greatest Discovery" from the 1970 "Elton John" album. For some reason this version seems to have surfaced on original copies in some countries back in 1970. The opening orchestration is different! There are horns instead of Paul Buckmaster's beautiful cello solo. And then Elton's outro is extended a little longer. A little collector's item!

This might be the best ballad that EJ/Taupin ever wrote. Poignant lyrics with soothing music. Love this tune!
