Elton John's place in rock history is secure. He is one of the most consequential musicians of the past half-century - and, alongside songwriting partner Bernie Taupin, a part of the only duo to approach Lennon & McCartney in talent and range. Harmony examines the music of Elton John in deep detail, analyzing its themes, its structure, its innovations. From Madman Across the Water to Goodbye Yellow Brick Road to Captain Fantastic, from Your Song to Bennie and the Jets to Rocket Man - the creativity and nuance and boldness of Elton's best music from his earlier classical years is thoughtfully explored, along with the history of each song and album. It's a journey back down the Yellow Brick Road that now stretches across five decades, back to Caribou and the Honky Chateau and other venues where the music first happened - but, more significantly, it's a path into the mind of one of pop cultures true 20th century genuises.
