About this album

Greatest Hits distils Elton John’s early-1970s imperial run into a sharply chosen sequence of enduring singles. Bringing together songs such as Your Song, Rocket Man, Candle in the Wind, Crocodile Rock and Daniel, it captures the period when John and lyricist Bernie Taupin turned melodic craft and emotional directness into mainstream pop dominance. The compilation became one of his most successful releases and a key entry point into a catalogue that bridged piano balladry, glam-era punch and radio-ready hooks. As a snapshot of an artist at full commercial and creative force, it remains the most direct way into his classic era.
