Elton John is abundantly talented and it's pity he's thrown it away doing mainstream pop drivel. He reminds me of Paul McCartney, another talented singer and awesome bass player who done nothing but saccharine muck since 1970.
Tumbleweed Connection is my favorite Elton John album which ironically is overlooked by many of Elton's biggest fans. For me, Tumbleweed Connection is the high musical standard by which his later work fails so miserably to measure up to.
