Legends of Rock & Roll - Elton John James Hoag

One of the greatest performers of the past 40 years, Elton John has sold over 200 Million albums worldwide. He is the only person in the history of rock and roll to place a song in the Top 40 for every year for a span of 25 years. (1969 - 1995) The Legends of Rock & Roll series is written to honor the great people who have provided us with the music of our lives. While the book talks about the life of Elton John, the emphasis is on his music, how it came to be and maybe some inside stories as to what a particular song really means. From his early days getting started to the highs and the lows to becoming a super star. I cover most of his more popular songs and albums and how they came to be. Come along on a fascinating journey through the life of one of the most exciting and talented people in the world. A man, in some ways just like you and me and in other ways, he is like no one else on earth. This is Elton John.
