Description

Up for auction is the rare 1970 Elton "Johns" withdrawn promo single "From Denver To L.A." on Viking Records #VIK 1010. Visually graded using Goldmine standards, the 7" vinyl is in excellent condition with beautiful shine and extremely light surface wear. The label shows a couple of cut marks on one side but otherwise a beautiful specimen of this very hard to find sought after single. See details below on the story of this withdrawn single. Do not miss out! Low starting bid and no reserve.


"From Denver to L.A." is a song sung by Elton John, appearing on the soundtrack of the 1970 movie, The Games. The song was released as a single in the U.S. in July 1970, miscredited on the record label to "Elton Johns". The single was issued just as John's career was starting to take off, but was quickly withdrawn because both John and his then-current record company objected to its release. It is now an extremely rare collectors' item.

John said of the song: "Actually, "From Denver to L.A." was withdrawn, so if you have got a copy, it's worth a small fortune. It was a 25 quid session I did at Olympic Studios and I just sang the song, and it was for the Michael Winner movie "The Games". And that's it.
