Elton John's best, IMHO. This album from 1973 - the best year in music history - is great from start to finish. The mind-blowing opening of "Funeral for a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding", "Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting", "Bennie", the title track and all the rest - all in vibrant vinyl. This record is a must-have for any vinyl collector.
