‘Elton John’ was the album that sparked the launch of Elton’s career. Best-known for its opening track, "Your Song", this early Elton self-titled masterpiece has much more to offer, not least the gospel inflections of "Border Song" and the blues-rocker "Take Me To The Pilot". 1LP hand-pressed on limited edition purple splatter vinyl, housed inside a clear PVC sleeve with backing card and obi strip. Remastered in 2016 by Bob Ludwig and cut at Abbey Road Studios.
