Elton John was a super star when he released Don’t Shoot Me I’m Only the Piano Player in 1973, his most direct, pop-oriented album to date. Designed as a pastiche of classic and contemporary pop styles, the album demonstrates the diversity of the Elton John/Bernie Taupin team. It includes “Daniel” and “Crocodile Rock.” Now available on 180 gram heavyweight vinyl in celebration of Elton’s 50th year in music.
