Notes
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Elton John's second album was his first to be released in the U.S., and the
difference between it and its predecessor, EMPTY SKY, is palpable and
immediate. ELTON JOHN opens with "Your Song", a halting ballad that is one
of the most moving love songs in the modern pop canon. The album also marks
John's fruitful association with Gus Dudgeon and arranger Paul Buckmaster
(who'd previously collaborated on David Bowie's "Space Oddity"). The team
came up with a spare orchestral sound that surrounds the singer and his
piano with dashes of both classical and rock guitar, synthesizers, carefully
arranged drums, and searing strings.
This wasn't all-out pop yet, but rather a striking and singular brand of
folk-rock. "Take Me To The Pilot" shows flashes of John's rocking future
("Bennie And The Jets" descended from it), "No Shoe Strings On Louise" is
Rolling Stonesy country-rock, and "Sixty Years On" is haunting and
memorable. More typical for this session is "I Need You To Turn To", another
love song that finds lyricist Bernie Taupin in an unusually direct mode, and
features a beautiful harpsichord melody from John. ELTON JOHN cast the mold
for the singer's future superstardom.

Note: These tracks are remixed into surround 5.1 and encoded into DTS. They
can be played through a stand alone home theatre decoder capable of decoding
a DTS signal provided that the CD or DVD player is
connected digitally to the decoder using either a digital coaxial or digital
optical toslink cable. If the player is connected using analogue cables you
will only hear white noise and could damage your loudspeakers. These tracks
can also be played on computers with player programs like Foobar (with dts
plugin), KM Player, VLC Player, etc.
This download contains a DTS encoded WAV file of the entire album and a CUE
sheet to enable burning to CD with the correct track pointers.
Ensure both these files are downloaded to the same folder (create a folder
if you like) and DO NOT rename the files.
If you have a popular burning program such as Roxio or Nero installed it may
recognise the CUE file so just double click it to load and then burn to a
CD.
Alternatively, you can install the enclosed (Free) program "ImgBurn" and use
that.
