I only have his Greatest Hits (the most recent one), but i love every cut dearly. Lot of soul Elton. I must invest in his 70's stuff. I reckon he was neck and neck w/ Stevie back then (for quality songs).

Oh gawd there are sooooo many songs.

I saw him perform in September. Awesome concert.

And he took time out to autograph albums, cell phones, $5, $20, $100 bills, ticket stubs, etc.

What about the singles from "Songs From The West Coast." 'This Train Don't Stop' and 'I Want Love'.

Lady Cab Driver is one of the greatest songs ever!

Noone named IDOL yet? Is it because noone knows it or because I'm the only one who likes it?
