Product Description

Elton's second studio album, TUMBLEWEED CONNECTION, quickly followed the success of Elton John and was originally released in January 1971. While the album did not deliver a hit single, it is perhaps his most underestimated album in quality and depth. This collection includes a bonus disc consisting of 13 tracks, (10 previously unreleased). Newly re-mastered version draws on an extensive trawl of the archives to present a never-before-heard demo, Sisters of the Cross, and early demo versions of five further album tracks, including the alternatively titled There Goes a Well Known Gun. the demo version of fan favorite Talking Old Soldiers has quite an alternative softer feel in it's delivery and interpretation. Includes an alternative version of Madman Across the Water (featuring Mick Ronson on guitar), from the albums sessions. Includes a lavish, 28-page booklet with extensive new liner notes, period photos and lyrics.

Eltonは、なぜアメリカを意識するのか。バーニーと一緒に西部劇を楽しんで作ったアルバム。発売当時の見開き歌詞カード絵本張りに引かれて購入してから37年も経ちました。しかし、ボーナストラックが何故マッドマンなのでしょう。

エルトンの諸作の中では、一番地味な方だと思いますが、なかなかこれがいぶし銀のような滋味溢れる名盤ですよ。今回、YOUR SONGとともにデラックスエディションになり、さらに新リマスターとくれば、また買い直さないといけないね。初々しさや瑞々しさが随所に感じられる初期の作品は最高!!

このジャケかっこいい!!エルトンの中では1番好き。そのジャケの通り中身も渋い。でも聴けば聴くほど味が出る。エルトンMYベスト5入り決定なアルバムでございやす。
