Our Take

Elton John's Honky Chateau is a fabulous fusion of rock, pop, and pure British eccentricity. From the moment the iconic piano chords of "Honky Cat" kick in, you know you're in for a wild ride with this legendary Rocket Man.

John's songwriting abilities are on full display here, with tracks like "Rocket Man" and "Mona Lisas and Mad Hatters" showcasing his knack for crafting heartfelt, introspective lyrics. But don't let that fool you - Honky Chateau is far from a sombre affair. Tracks like "Hercules" and "Slave" bring the party vibes with their infectious grooves and undeniable energy.

The production on this album is top-notch, with a mix of lush instrumentation and catchy melodies that will have you tapping your feet and singing along in no time. John's vocals are as captivating as ever, with his signature vibrato sending shivers down your spine.

Honky Chateau is a true testament to Elton John's enduring talent and musical prowess. It's no wonder this album has stood the test of time and remains a classic in the world of rock and pop music. So put on your feather boa, grab a glass of champagne, and let Elton John take you on a journey through the eccentric world of Honky Chateau. Cheers to the Rocket Man!
