Sir Elton Hercules John, CBE, is one of the most highly acclaimed and successful solo artists of all time. He has achieved 38 gold and 27 platinum or multi-platinum albums, has sold more than 250 million records worldwide, and holds the record for the biggest selling single of all time. Over the five decades since his career began in 1969, Elton has played nearly 4,000 concerts in over 80 countries. Elton is the third most successful artist in the history of the American charts, behind only Elvis Presley and the Beatles. He has had 56 top 40 singles in the United States, a total second only to Elvis Presley. He achieved seven #1 albums in the three-and-a-half-year period from 1972 to 1975 — a period of concentrated success surpassed only by the Beatles. In 2015 Elton and co-producer T Bone Burnett collaborate on their third album, Elton’s 33rd studio effort. Elton wanted to create a “joyful” album and intentionally wrote in guitar keys (A, E, D) to push the uptempo feel of the project. Wonderful Crazy Night was written and recorded during two sets of sessions in January and April 2014, and uses his touring band for the first time in ten years. More info Crocus City Hall |
