ELTON JOHN : MADMAN ACROSS THE WATER 50^TH ANNIVERSARY DELUXE EDITION

SORTIE LE 10 JUIN 2022

Madman Across the Water est le quatrième album d’Elton John. Sorti en 1971, celui-ci connait un succès limité à l’exception des Etats-Unis. En 2000, l’album est redécouvert grâce à la chanson Tiny Dancer qui figure dans le film Almost Famous de Cameron Crowe, et c’est aujourd’hui l’un des titres les plus streamés de l’artiste.

Madman Across the Water fait l’objet d’une réédition deluxe pour célébrer le 50^ème anniversaire de sa sortie. La version superdeluxe comprend l’album remasterisé par Bob Ludwig, les versions demo au piano, un concert enregistré à la BBC et un mix 5.1.
