Album Notes
Initial pressings of this first edition contain a bonus disc.Recorded between 1970 & 2002. Includes liner notes by Paul Gambaccini.All tracks have been digitally remastered.Here you go, Elton fans--a definitive two-disc collection of some of the bespectacled one's most beloved tunes. The full gamut of Elton John's stellar career is covered here. The archetypal singer-songwriter introspection of "Your Song" kicks things off, giving way in short order to the more glam pop moments of "Honky Cat" and "Saturday Night's All Right For Fighting." The Roy Orbison-like ballad "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me" and the moving, mournful "Sorry Seems to be the Hardest Word" represent the sadder side of the usually sunny popster. The second disc digs into Elton's later work, coming up with such gems as the surprisingly rocking "I Don't Wanna Go On With You Like That" and the Beatleseque "I Want Love," the latter proving that the 21st century found Elton still standing, in artistic terms.

  "GREATEST HITS" - surely music to the casual fan's ears

I've never been a huge Elton fan, I must admit but some of his songs are just beautiful. So, with 'Greatest Hits', what an excellent opportunity to get the 'best' as well as 'the rest'? Certainly good enough to end up being taken out in the car, as well as being listened to at home.

I had this CD when i had my engagement party, but it somehow got lost so i was really upset as some of the songs are sentimental. It came to me in perfect condition and i was really happy with the speed of delivery, which i havent had with all items bought, i was also really pleased with the contact from the seller.
