Notes
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
By the time Elton John went to France to cut HONKY CHATEAU in 1972, he had
already become the first act since the Beatles to land four albums in the
American Top 10 simultaneously. Up to that point, John had performed in a
trio rounded out by bassist Dee Murray and drummer Nigel Olsson. The
addition of guitarist Davey Johnstone on HONKY CHATEAU added another
dimension to the overall sound. The results were successful, as the
nonsensical "Honky Cat" and the Bowie-inspired "Rocket Man" became John's
first Top 10 hits since the release of "Your Song" two years prior.
John and co. reined in the lengthy, moody excesses of MADMAN ACROSS THE
WATER, turning in a highly focused collection of beautifully crafted pop.The
rollicking "I Think I'm Gonna Kill Myself", the sassy "Susie (Dramas)", and
the stirring "Mona Lisas And Mad Hatters" are all standouts. The John/Bernie
Taupin partnership also yielded a number of songs with vivid imagery,
including the Civil War-era American South of "Slave" and a front-row pew
before a gospel choir in the inspirational "Salvation". Pound for pound,
HONKY CHATEAU may be one the strongest, most consistent, and most
pleasurable records in the mammoth John discography.

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.
