doug — off the record

just a place to share some thoughts


For us …

… from Elton John.

It doesn’t take a detective to figure out my musical likes, especially from the past.

If you go into my record collection, you’ll see some albums that have been played to death. Now beyond recognition because of clicks and pops, I hang on just for the album cover.

Next, if it’s up on my top played, it will have been replaced with a CD-ROM or a digital purchase from a music store.

Back to my record collection, there are some Elton John records there that have been played so many times.

  • Tumbleweed Collection
  • Madman Across the Water
  • Goodbye Yellow Brick Road
  • Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy

They truly are well worn out.

If I ever need over three hours of his music, there’s his 60th at Madison Square Garden.

Just this week, we’re treated to even more and it’s free.

It’s Elton John’s birthday and he’s got rare music for fans

So, on this windy Friday morning after the big storm last night, I’m listening my way through these tunes.

More details are available on this page from the Elton John website.
