![]() ![]() For a man as prolific as Elton there have unsurprisingly been missteps along the way, all mainly fuelled by more than a decade of addiction, but his best records remain crystalline examples of deft pop writing at its very, very best.Īhead of his headline appearance on Glastonbury’s Pyramid Stage this Sunday, MOJO ranks and rates Elton’s John’s best albums. His own 30 studio albums, the best of which he’s written with Taupin, span the gamut from gospel-infused soul to R&B bop, introspective ballads to full-throttle rock’n’roll. He’s also an obsessive music fan who still, after more than 40 years of recording, insists on receiving all the latest tracks and albums on the week of release. Elton John is nothing if not an old-fashioned grafter. In recent years, solo albums have been interspersed with stage musicals, soundtracks and before he announced his “retirement” his annual quota of 120 live shows a year. Folkie types will savour the wide-eyed beauty of his early ‘70s albums, while those schooled in outrageous glam rock will cherish the sparkly superstar of Goodbye Yellow Brick Road and Captain Fantastic… The next decade would bring stadium bravado, straw boaters and an MTV smash in that most ‘80s of anthems I’m Still Standing, before a new raft of music fans found their way to his music via a 1994 Disney movie about big cats and the untimely death of Diana, Princess Of Wales. Today, each generation has its own favourite Elton John. But then when the 20-year-old Reginald Kenneth Dwight met lyricist Bernie Taupin and was reborn as Elton John, it seemed unlikely that he was ever going to do anything by half. Not bad for a Middlesex pub pianist with a penchant for Jerry Lee Lewis and Mrs Mills. Nine studio albums in six years, with seven consecutive US Number 1s, more than 50 hit singles, innumerable shoes, specs and flowers, and total record sales in excess of 250 million.
