ELTON JOHN, "Honky Chateau"
UNI Label #: UNI 93135
Released late 1972
Personally purchased this shortly after it came out!
ORIGINAL, 1st PRESSING!
ULTRA RARE PASTE ON COVER*
*Only the first few thousand albums were
printed with a blank area on the front cover until
the final picture decision was made,
the picture was then pasted over the blank area.
Afterwards the picture was printed on the cover.
Great Collector's album!
Original store price sticker is on back side
over the sealed cellophane!
RECENT REVIEWS:

we are selling here) as "a rich, warm, satisfying album

More recently, Stephen Thomas Erlewine of Allmusic
confirms that this album has stood the test of time
by proclaiming that "it plays as the most focused
and accomplished set of songs Elton John and
Bernie Taupin ever wrote."
