Elton John - Rocket Man - Definitive Hits - Music

Weeping Dreams · 01-04-2007, 13:26

I see Elt is Number One in some Album Charts but why would anyone buy this, it's not definitive' it's not even his biggest hits.........absolute rip-off praying on the loyalty of his CD buying fans.

i dont think this one has his backing, its more like the best of his early career with a few later ones thrown in! lol

It's pretty bad to be honest. There is hardly anything from the middle of his career on this collection. I doubt it will sell well, to do him justice it would almost have to be a triple album.

The guys turned 60 so let's try and eke a few more quid out of the fans by releasing yet another best of.

As predictable as a Beach Boys best of being re-hashed every summer.

I wont bother with this, as I have all his early albums, which have had a bit of use lately.

He really was a brilliant talent back then, and every album was a gem.

I used to be a big fan back in the 70's and still listen to some of those albums.
But his voice has just gone now hasnt it.
On telly the other night it was painful to hear him murder those old songs.
