Elton John: Goodbye Yellow Brick Road (1973)

Saturday night's alright for fighting and for listening to the best podcast about Elton John and his 1973 double album, Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. This week we have a special surprise. In 2020, before we started in on the Top 500 list we recorded a few practice episodes, one of which was on this album. So while the audio quality is a bit choppy our social disease has caused us to release this original episode for the first time ever.

 

But before we say goodbye to Norma Jeane we're putting on our electric boots and mohair suits and chatting about baby showers, vacationing with kids, and some TV and movie recommendations that are rolling well-known.

 

Then at (19:00) we break out our switchblade knives and get you oiled up like a diesel train when we talk about Elton John and his 7th studio album, Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. We talk about Elton's musical partnership with songwriter Bernie Taupin, the best songs about Saturday, and the worst song of any album on the Top 500 list. We also unveil a fantastic game at the end of this episode that you have to stick around for! 

 

Next week the bigmouth strikes again when we become the best podcast about The Smiths and the 113th greatest album of all time, The Queen is Dead.
