Elton John ORIG US LP Captain Fantastic EX ’75 With 2 booklets Poster & Advert
Elton John
Captain Fantastic and his Brown Dirt BandOriginal US LP released in 1975 on MCA Records. Cat: L35400. This album has a gatefold foldout cover. Comes with foldout poster, 2 full colour booklets and original fan club insert all of which are in Near Mint condition.
Sitting atop the charts in 1975, Elton John and Bernie Taupin recalled their rise to power in Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy, their first explicitly conceptual effort since Tumbleweed Connection. It's no coincidence that it's their best album since then, showcasing each at the peak of his power, as John crafts supple, elastic, versatile pop and Taupin's inscrutable wordplay is evocative, even moving. What's best about the record is that it works best of a piece although it entered the charts at number one, this only had one huge hit in "Someone Saved My Life Tonight," which sounds even better here, since it tidily fits into the musical and lyrical themes. And although the musical skill on display here is dazzling, as it bounces between country and hard rock within the same song, this is certainly a grower.
