Quite unexpected for me was to read about EJ being involved in the Gentle Giant's first steps from Simon Dupree to prog mavericks and was even briefly considered as GG member. I've seen somebody mentioned him trying to become King Crimson member in the early stages of the band tooShocked. Not sure if the latter is true. Nevertheless, is there any EJ album proggy enough to recommend to a proghead?

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road for sure,
Blue Moves, maybe,

Funeral for a Friend is probably Elton's proggiest song, on his Goodbye Yellow Brick Road album.

Try Madmann Acros the River and Captain Fantasyic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy.

And side one of the double album Blue Moves is very progy, most of Blue Moves is progy.

Hes 8 first albums are all very eclectoc which is quite common among early 70s singer-songwriters. For Eltons case its a mix of roots, classical inspired neo-classical harpsicord ballads, folk rock, piano rock, honky tonk.

Tumbleweed Connection is the best epic americana inspired album and its made by a brit. It contains some really good songs and its Eltons most genuibly perfect albums through and through.

Yes, Elton did try out for the KC vocal job, so did Bryan Ferry too. "Madman Across the water" is an excellent album.

Tumbleweed and Madman should be in everyone's record collection if they are serious about good (pop) rock music. The later lp's  Honky, Don't Shoot Me and Goodbye all have some nice good music. Many people like several of his later ones also b ut they never grabbed my fancy like the earlier ones.

Try the debute Empty Sky also, very raw, ambissous and eclectic, with some Simon Dupree esque elements

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road (song) is one of the best pop songs ever written and sung.

Good Performances by The Who, Kate Bush, Eric Clapton, Tina Turner, Phil Collins, Bruce Hornsbey & others

^Another great Elton tune is "Your Song". The lyrics fit perfectly.

GYBR was his creative peak for sure, but other early Elton albums worth exploring in my opinion would be:

Elton John (S/T 1970)
Madman Across the Water (1971)
Honky Chateau (1972
Don't Shoot Me I'm Only the Piano Player (1973)

I totally agree. Empty Sky is Elton John at his best in his psychedelic heyday. Thumbs Up

Mmmhhh!!!... Tumbmeweed has a country connection I don't appreciate, and it doesn't have that slightly  progressive slant present in Madman and Goodbye.

And TBH, if you take away Funeral (FFaF), there isn't much proggyness in Goodbye. As for those post-Goodbye albums, I don't detect anything proggy either. Good pop , but nothing prog.

I don't think I ever really heard the albums Blue Moves or Single Man, though. I had grown tired of lton back then.

First four albums - 1969-71.....underrated first LP but that three album run from the self-titled second to Madman are essential with Tumbleweed being a personal favorite.

Next three albums - 1972-73.....Chateau introduced a more commercial sound and sales boomed; Shoot is an interesting album that harkens back and looks forward, then Yellow Brick.....it's a jukebox of an album that made him an international superstar.  I'd take any of the first four over it.

Next three albums - 1974-75......two excellent "throw away" albums sandwiched between what many feel is his best:  Brown Dirt.  I don't dislike the album but don't think it's near his best.....in fact, I'd take the first seven and the ones before and after over it.  Then, Blue Moves - an excellent single album that just happens to be a double.  Everything that made him great is here, so is everything that led to the very steep drop in quality from here on in.

After this, 1978's A Single Man isn't bad and a good album's worth of material could be squeezed from the early 80s revival LPs like 21 at 33, the Fox, Jump Up, and Too Low For Zero.  Can't recommend anything after, even the "comeback" records, including the dud he did with Leon.

The One is my favourite Elton John album and I agree with Icarium that Blue Moves is his proggiest album.

I didn’t think much of The One, so maybe I need to revisit it. From this later stage of his career, the only albums I’ve really enjoyed (enough to buy) are Sleeping With The Past, The Lion King (which is more Hans Zimmer than it is Elton John), and Made In England.

The One also has the added bonus of featuring the one and only Eric Clapton on Runaway Train. Smile

Yes, that would be the same street where it says "" sprayed on the wall in graffiti. Smile
