>>As I wrote to Jay about (sir?) E. John, and as IMO applies to many artists out there - their first albums was where it happened. The later and better known stuff is more of a retirement plan than art, IMO.

>ELton John! What a joke! I agree. My fave by him was "Harmony" and the album it came off. Not being a fan I don't know which, but it dates back to at least 1974. Mind you, shows waht a long career the old drama queen has had.

I particularly liked the "Mona Lisas and mad hatters" off Honky Chateau, because of the great sound of electric violin of Jean-Luc Ponty... mmm, may find that one again.

>Yes, John is a "Sir" but IMO should be a "Lady". :-)

To each their own. I don't mind, as long as they don't approach me in that way.
