ABOUT THE RECORD Live in Australia was recorded live at the Sydney Entertainment Centre on December 14, 1986. There are absolutely NO overdubs on this album. The live version of Candle In The Wind was released as a single in the US in 1987, peaking at No. 6 in the Billboard Hot 100. The concerts consisted of two sets: the first was limited to John and his 14-piece band, and his flamboyant stage dress, featuring Mohawk and Tina Turner wigs and some outlandish eye wear; the second featured John, the band and the 88-piece Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, with him dressed as Mozart. Paul Buckmaster wrote brand new full orchestra parts for songs such as Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me, which previously only had horn arrangements. This concert was the last to feature Elton's legendary stage costumes, which he had featured in his shows since the early 1970s. It was also his last show before undergoing throat surgery in January 1987. The surgery, although completely successful, prevented Elton from singing at all for several months and from touring for 18 months. The surgery also effectively lowered his range from tenor to baritone.
