 | Description: | Elton Johnâ??s fourth studio album release in little over two years, Madman Across The Water has been a long held dear favourite of artist and fans alike. Madman Across The Water was largely written after Elton had made his initial foray to America; offering the opportunity for lyricist Bernie Taupin to witness first-hand the landscapes and people heâ??d only seen on a screen or on the page. Recorded at Trident Studios in Central London in February and August 1971, it was the first album where all five players of Eltonâ??s fabled band line up â?? Dee Murray, Nigel Olsson, Davey Johnstone and Ray Cooper â?? were featured, albeit not on the same tracks.
While the UK were still deciding about Elton, these nine tracks struck a chord with Eltonâ??s US audiences, reaching the Top 10 and its singles, â??Levonâ?? and â??Tiny Dancerâ?? both hit the US Top 50. After years as a â??best kept secretâ?? to Eltonâ??s fans, â??Tiny Dancerâ?? has gone on to become one of his most loved songs, third only to Rocket Man and Your Song in global streaming lists. Capturing the headiness of California at the time of Eltonâ??s first US concerts, the song was used to phenomenal effect in Cameron Croweâ??s 2000 film Almost Famous.
