Elton John was the biggest pop star of the '70s, grabbing headlines and generating hits throughout the world. As it turned out, this was merely the first act in a remarkable career that kept him at the top of the charts for decades.
He had a Top 40 hit single every year between anda sign that he knew how to both change with the times and mold the times to fit him. He dipped into soul, elton john greatest hits 1970 to 2002 free download, disco, and country, as well as classic pop balladry, progressive rock, and even musical theater. His versatility, combined with his effortless melodic skills, dynamic charisma, and flamboyant stage shows, became his calling cards; many of his songs -- including "Your Song," "Rocket Man," "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road," and "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me" -- became contemporary pop standards.
He began playing piano at the age of four, and when he was 11, he won a scholarship to the Royal Academy of Music. After studying for six years, he left school with the intention of breaking into the music business. Inhe joined his first band, Bluesology, and divided his time between playing with the group, giving solo concerts at a local hotel, and running errands for a London publishing house. InBluesology became Long John Baldry's supporting band as they toured cabarets throughout England.
Dwight became frustrated with Baldry's control of the band and looked for other groups to join. He failed his lead vocalist auditions for both King Crimson and Gentle Giant before responding to an advertisement by Liberty Records.
Though he failed his Liberty audition, he was given a stack of lyrics left with the label courtesy of Bernie Taupin, who had also replied to the ad. Dwight wrote music for Taupin's lyrics and began corresponding with him through mail. By the time the two met six months later, Dwight had changed his name to Elton John, taking his first name from Bluesology saxophonist Elton Dean and his last from John Baldry. The pair collaborated at a rapid rate, with Taupin submitting batches of lyrics -- he often wrote a song an hour -- every few weeks.
John would then write music without changing the words, sometimes completing the songs in under a half-hour. Over the next two years, the duo wrote for pop singers like Roger Cook and Lulu. In the meantime, John recorded cover versions of current hits for budget labels to be sold in supermarkets. By the summer ofhe had begun recording singles for release under his own name. Usually, these songs were more rock- and radio-oriented than the tunes he and Taupin were giving to other vocalists, yet neither of his early singles for Philips, "I've Been Loving You Too Long" and "Lady Samantha," sold well, elton john greatest hits 1970 to 2002 free download.
In August, he gave his first American concert at the Troubadour in Los Angeles, which received enthusiastic reviews, as well as praise from Quincy Jones and Leon Russell. The rapid release of Tumbleweed Connection established a pattern of frequent releases that John maintained throughout his career. Inhe released the live and the Friends soundtrack, before releasing Madman Across the Water late in the year. Madman Across the Water was successful, but John achieved stardom with the follow-up, 's Honky Chateau.
Recorded with his touring band -- bassist Dee Murray, drummer Nigel Olsson, and guitarist Davey Johnstone -- and featuring the hit singles "Rocket Man" and "Honky Cat," Honky Chateau became his first American number one album, spending five weeks at the top of the charts. Between andJohn and Taupin's hitmaking machine was virtually unstoppable.
John didn't become a Rocket recording artist himself, choosing to stay with MCA for a record-breaking eight-million-dollar contract in Later inhe played and sang on John Lennon's number one comeback single "Whatever Gets You Through elton john greatest hits 1970 to 2002 free download Night," and he persuaded Lennon to join him on-stage at Madison Square Garden on Thanksgiving Day ; it would prove to be Lennon's last live performance.
The following year, Captain Fantastic became John's first album to enter the American charts at number one. After its release, he revamped his band, which now featured Johnstone, Quaye, Roger Pope, Ray Cooper, and bassist Kenny Passarelli; Rock of the Westies was the first album to feature this lineup.

Many fans reacted negatively to John's bisexuality, and his audience began to shrink somewhat in the late '70s. The decline in his record sales was also due to his exhaustion.
AfterJohn cut his performance schedule drastically, announcing that he was retiring from live performances inand started recording only one album a year. His relationship with Taupin became strained following the release of 's double album Blue Moves, and the lyricist began working with other musicians.
That year, he returned to live performances, first by jamming at the Live Stiffs package tour, then by launching a comeback tour in accompanied only by percussionist Ray Cooper. Inhe signed with Geffen Records and his second album for the label, Jump Up! While his career continued to be successful, his personal life was in turmoil.
