Elton John

In 2008, Elton's classic 1970 self-titled album received the deluxe reissue treatment. Each track was digitally remastered to enhance its sound quality and several bonus tracks were added in, including Bad Side Of The Moon, the original and demo versions of Grey Seal, and three previously unreleased John/Taupin songs: Thank You Mama, All The Way Down To El Paso and I'm Going Home.
