Record Store Day 2019 Release: Elton John with Ray Cooper Live From Moscow
2019 is the 40th anniversary of Elton John’s historic first tour of Russia – he was the first Western rock star to ever perform in the country.  The show in Moscow on 28th May 1979 also features Ray Cooper and was broadcast on BBC radio in the UK. This special 2LP release for Record Store Day 2019 is taken from the original broadcast masters. Remastered by Bob Ludwig at Gateway Mastering and cut at Abbey Road.
In May of 1979, Elton John became the first major Western pop star to perform in Soviet Russia. It was a stripped-down show where he was only joined by percussionist Ray Cooper. The duo played songs from his whole career, including “Bennie and the Jets,” “Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word” and “Better Off Dead.” Bootlegs drawn from a BBC broadcast have circulated for decades, but this is the first time it’s ever been released on vinyl.
