Elton John has always been one of my favorite artists and performers, and when I was buying singles, I usually loved the non-album B-sides as much as the hits on the A-sides. So, when I ran into a six-disc homemade comp that purported to be all of EJ’s vinyl singles and B’s, I jumped at it. Played the hell out of it for a while until something else took my fancy. I ran across it yesterday and was into it once again, so I thought I’d share. Here are the first three discs (with tracklists). At 320, natch.
Disc 1: Times Gettin’ Tougher than Tough (Bluesology – EJ on piano only)/Everyday I Have the Blues (Bluesology – EJ on piano only)/Just a Little Bit (Bluesology – EJ on piano only)/Here’s to the Next Time/All Across the Havens/Just Like Strange Rain/Bad Side of the Moon/Grey Seal/Into the Old Man’s Shoes/Honey Roll/Holiday Inn/Goodbye/Lady Samantha/It’s Me That You Need/Elderberry Wine/Skyline Pigeon/Jack Rabbit/Whenever You’re Ready (We’ll Go Steady Again)/Screw You/Ho, Ho, Ho (Who’d Be a Turkey at Christmas)/Bennie and the Jets http://www35.zippyshare.com/v/unJTR7rW/file.html
Disc 2: Sick City/Cold Highway/House of Cards/Sugar on the Floor/I Feel Like a Bullet in the Gun of Robert Ford/Harmony/Snow Queen/Rock and Roll Madonna/Shoulder Holster/Chameleon/Flintstone Boy/I Cry at Night/Lovesick/Are You Ready for Love? (Pt. 2)/Strangers http://www35.zippyshare.com/v/MU5nHelV/file.html
Disc 3: Thunder in the Night/Conquer the Sun/White Man Danger/Cartier/Mona Lisas and Mad Hatters/Donner Pour Donner/Tactics/Steal Away Child/Love So Cold/Whatever Gets You Thru the Night (with John Lennon, Live NYC 1974)/Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds (with John Lennon, Live NYC, 1974)/Fools in Fashion/Can’t Get Over Losing You/Hey, Papa Legba/The Retreat/Where Have All the Good Times Gone? (Remix) http://www35.zippyshare.com/v/eCSBvJfE/file.html
In the Kitsch Korner, we have the original London cast of “Hair,” a Stan Freberg Best Of, and A.J. Weberman’s phone conversations with Bob Dylan (Weberman, the first and foremost Dylanologist, famously stole Dylan’s garbage and wrote about it ). Bitrates will vary, John. But you knew that, didn’t you, Marsha?

Labi Siffre is one of my favourite singer-songwriters. Famous for writing It Must Be Love and Crying Laughing Loving Lying, he’s impossible to define into a genre, covering many along the way.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Labi_Siffre
Here’s six of his albums:
1970 – Labi Siffre:

1988 – So Strong

Hi montysmusic....In among a recent Daily Dozen you uploaded Fuzzy Tiger Mix # 5 which goes nicely with Vols.1 & 2 you posted here awhile ago. I wondered if you had Vols 3 & 4 and if there were any further volumes after #5?
Another great comp you posted as part of a daily dozen was Sunshine Pearls Vol.1. Are there any more volumes of this wonderful comp? Many thanks and a happy new year!

Gaius said:
One of many English bands coming to Italy in search of success during the late 60's, "The Trip" included a young Ritchie Blackmore in their first line-up, along with founder members Andersen and Gray and drummer Ian Broad, but a line-up change brought two italians in, keyboards player Joe Vescovi from Savona (later the leading figure in the band) and drummer Pino Sinnone from Turin.
With a stable line-up the band had a good recording deal with RCA and released their first album in 1970, and a single taken from it.
By listening to the 'Atlantide'-album of 1972 you shouldn't think that you are possessing a long lost ELP album. Indeed 'Atlantide', especially the title track sounds like a young Keith Emerson on work.

JWDen thanks for the Elton John singles. I am not a big EJ fan, well at least through Yellow Brick Road then I moved to different music. BUT, does anyone have his 17-11-70 live album for posting?
It was released in 71, was recorded live on WNEW-NYC (one of the best FM rock stations in the states). Has an incredible opening of Take Me To the Pilot. I had a vinyl copy until downsizing all my album many years ago, currently doing that with all my CDs. If you have this album and can post for DL, thank you.
Also Merry New Year to all at TZ, thanks for all you do.
Cheers

@clash. Excellent posts, as is always the case. FYI the Tommy James link is dead.
@montysmusic - I too am interested in Fuzzy Tiger Mix #3 and #4.
@zipper - Thanks for the heads up on the Fuzzy Tiger Mix #5. I had somehow missed that one.
For anyone else looking for Fuzzy #5, monty uploaded it on the 15th. Link is through mega and is still good, thankfully.
@everyone - I hope everyone is enjoying the holiday season. Wishing everyone a great New Year!

Here you are with two more albums by the famous Labbi Siffre:

@Rugby Lad - I know of a couple different versions of 11/17/70 (or 17/11/70)EJ album, and I believe the version I have has an extra track, and the songs are in the correct running order. I'll look.
Thanks so much to Monte for the Marshall Crenshaw. I still think his first album was one of the '80s best records. I'd love to hear more, my friend...
Iggy
@Scott Marks - thanks for the Nichols and May!
JWDen - !
Many thanks for your shares, not just today's batch.
Many more thanks for Stan 'The Man' Freberg & Tom T. Hall; Both are always welcome!
Also: Very tickled to see 'Hair'-related albums, as I used to have several different foreign cast 'Hair' releases on vinyl. I'm a sucker for familiar show tunes in other languages, what can I say?! I think I had a few foreign 'My Fair Lady' LP's too... Anyway: Let the Hair fly. If you got it, flaunt it!
Cheers!
Marshall Crenshaw - U.S. Remix (1984):

For details about this one, see my blog.
montysmusic, thank you for sharing the ep collection and the two superb albums.
Bob, thank you for sharing the roots...appreciated.
JWDen, thanks for sharing the brilliant other sides.
Searnav, thank you for sharing that young band...always great.
@Charles de Lint. The Tommy James link should be fine. Please give it another try.
Bob - Thanks for the Troubadours!
@ Nobby. Thanks for the Siffre.
By the way: If you ever have heard one good song of Wild Billy Childish, you have heard all
Cheers monty my friend....I'll keep a weather eye open for anything that crops up. Thanks for all your great shares this past year and I wish you all the best for 2018. Hope you're feeling better soon. Cheers!
Anonymous was looking for some Supergrass. This is my fave of theirs, "In It For The Money", and their Best Of, "Supergrass Is 10". If you have specific requests, let me know - I probably have it.
http://www8.zippyshare.com/v/O5BBKZA4/file.html
@Iwika - Thanks for the Bike. Truly outstanding. Not sure how I made it through my '90s Power Pop Obsession without hearing this.
Finally, if anyone has Ric Menck's solo album they'd be willing to share, I would love to get a copy.
Happy New Year To All!
JiffyBoy
The comedy stockade is quickly depleting, JWDen. May have to switch over to soundtracks soon.
Thanks for all the Labi Siffre posted hereupon - I’d quite forgotten what a talent he was (er, is!) and it’s nice to be reacquainted with his albums.
... that Diana said ...
@ JWDen - Yay! The Elton John B-sides fill a Yuge gap!
@ montymusic - Agnes Obel is a favorite of mine. The resta youse guise...
Agnes is a Danish singer/songwriter who mostly works alone with her piano. Her music is minimal, intimate, "elegant" in the mathematical sense - but that doesn't even come close to a description. Give Philharmonics a spin - if you like it at all you will REALLY like it. :)
By the way: If you ever have heard one good song of Wild Billy Childish, you have heard all
That's a rather ignorant and untrue statement.
Since we seem to have gone "Hair" raising mad, here's my politically incorrect contribution. Stan Kenton's jazzy rendition of "Colored Spade" is two stops shy of genius on the monorail platform of life. Great for karaoke or sing along while driving with the windows wide open!
Hair (1969) Stan Kenton @320
https://mega.nz/#F!mg52FLqb!V0VKJY9ohA9sXFwGphVI6Q
Thanks for all the great shares lately! I have a question - does anyone happen to have copies of the Rev Frost Bloody Holiday Mixes he used to post? I know I'm going back a ways but I found my copy of Rev Frost Bloody Xmas Mix #5 this year and enjoyed the hell out of it. I never had the chance to download the rest, and I know he's got it streaming these days, but it would be great to have the mp3s
One more politically incorrect addition. Mancini swings "Hitler" with a Latin beat.

Thanks again to JWDen and Anonymous for the NatLamp links!
@Bob: Thank you for the American roots!
@Searnav: thanks for the fine custard, too.
@Monty's: take care of that health of yours... maybe a li'l chicken soup to wash down your next pint?
@ScottM: Thanks for socking it to us with Rowan and Martin!
@Linda: If I may, and respectfully: Sir Reginald Kenneth Dwight is quite welcome here, and most especially ahead of narrow-minded potty-mouthery; sigh.
Happy fourth day of Christmas, all (yes, even to Linda), and a Happy New Year looming!
Cheers!
@Clash
Thank you for the J.D. Crowe album. In bluegrass 1971 was a time when younger players were emerging and bringing a new perspective to the music although this one still shows a lot of respect for tradition. Good solid playing.
Labi Siffre, - Make My Day. Hope this is the one you want.

JWDen - Thanks SO much for the EJ B-side comp. At one time, I had just about all of these on 45. I recorded them all on a series of cassettes as well. Really nice to have them digitally and in one place.
Thanks JWDen for the Elton John share.
