Description:

Released in the UK in October 1970, Tumbleweed Connection is a much-loved album within Elton Johnâ??s back catalogue. Steeped in what was to become known as â??Americanaâ??, it was written and recorded entirely in London in March 1970. Although released afterwards, it was actually recorded before Your Song had become a hit and before Eltonâ??s triumphant debut performances at The Troubadour in Los Angeles. Its iconic sepia sleeve evokes a long-forgotten west, and contains some of Elton and Bernie Taupinâ??s greatest early songs: Ballad Of A Well-Known Gun, Burn Down The Mission and Amoreena. This strictly limited 180gm green vinyl edition celebrates the albumâ??s 50th Anniversary and provides a timely reminder of Elton on his journey to superstardom. - 180GR.

Limited 180 gram vinyl LP pressing. On Tumbleweed Connection, Elton John and Bernie Taupin attempted their most ambitious record to date for the follow-up to their breakthrough album. A loose concept album about the American West, Tumbleweed Connection emphasized the pretensions that always lay beneath their songcraft. The album was recorded at Trident Studios, London, England in March 1970 and released in October of the same year. It peaked at #2 on the UK Albums Chart and #5 on the US Billboard 200 chart. Dee Murray and Nigel Olsson appear for the first time together on this album as the rhythm section on "Amoreena". Olsson had played on one track on Empty Sky for John in 1969. It is Murray's first appearance on an Elton John album.
