By 1974, Elton John was on top of the world. He'd put out Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, Don't Shoot Me I'm Only The Piano Player, Honky Chateau, Madman Across The Water, Friends, Tumbleweed Connection, and his self titled sophomore album all in the matter of three years. That's a lot of grinding. I picked up his scraps from the starts of his career, but he left enough breadcrumbs to make a full album out of his tunes from 1973 to 1974 (Yes, I'm including the christmas songs, becuase even disconected from christmas Step Into Christmas slaps). These include outtakes, B-sides, non album singles, and whatnot.
I got the cover from this blog, which has a similar premise.
Side One
- Screw You (Young Man's Blues)
- Cold Highway
- Sick City
- Step Into Christmas
Side Two
- Ho! Ho! Ho! (Who'd be a Turkey at Chrstimas?)
- Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds
- Whenever you're Ready (We'll Go Steady Again)
- Jack Rabbit
- Let Me Be Your Car
