I am sure this tune was the first coming to the mind of a certain myLot member when hearing “yellow.” Not much to say here. “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road” is among Elton John’s most famous and successful singles. The double album of the same title considered by many his finest effort. The John-Bernie Taupin composition is loosely inspired by “The Wizard of Oz and about the desire to get back home. The platinum single peaked at Billboard #2 while the #1 album went 8x platinum.
Live at Earl's Court in London during Elton's "Louder Than Concorde" tour. May 12, 1976

Hmm, not bad. He’ll never be another Reggie Dwight though.
Ever notice how many marginal singers came out of the 70s? This guy, that Rhonda Lindstadt gal.....
