Our Take

ELTON JOHN - Madman Across The Water

Elton John, the flamboyant piano man with a penchant for sequined suits and oversized sunglasses, is back with his 1971 album "Madman Across The Water." And let me tell you, this album is more fabulous than Elton's wardrobe choices.

From the epic title track that takes you on a mystical journey across the water (where you might just run into a madman or two) to the heartfelt ballads like "Tiny Dancer" that will have you swaying in your seat, this album is a rollercoaster of emotions.

John's dynamic piano playing combined with Bernie Taupin's poetic lyrics create a magical blend that is sure to transport you to another dimension. Whether you're belting out the high notes of "Levon" or swaying to the haunting melodies of "Indian Sunset," there's something for everyone on this album.

But don't let the whimsical nature of Elton John fool you, underneath the glitter and glitz lies a depth and complexity that sets him apart from his contemporaries. "Madman Across The Water" showcases John's versatility as a musician and a storyteller, proving once again why he is a true musical icon.

So grab your sequins, pop on your oversized sunglasses, and let Elton John take you on a wild ride across the water. You won't regret it. Cheers to the madman!
