## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A classic for those who enjoy Elton
*by C***B on 1 March 2025*

Order now fulfilled. Great quality. Great cd.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Did he get any better? I think not!
*by S***E on 5 January 2020*

Elton John is a musician that I have always admired but never quite got into. I'm admittedly more of a rock guitar kind of guy, especially with more blues overtones etc. But I have always had respect for Elton, especially for albums like Goodbye Yellow Brick Road and Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy. These two albums alone are (in my opinion) two of the finest '70s albums out there and this remaster hasn't convinced me otherwise.It seems that the ranking of Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy depends whether or not you prefer the previously mentioned Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. Both albums are suitably epic, have their fair share of classics and don't have a single dud track on it. For me personally, I would rate them both as Elton John's finest work but would easily consider Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy to be his best. Not because the songs are better (my favourites are on the other record) but because of the overall pacing.For me personally, I feel that this album is a lot easier to listen to. The songs are considerably more up beat for the most part with each one coming and going in a faster, more energetic fashion. It's one thing having the better songs but the way Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy sort of zooms on by makes for a better listening experience. There is also the fact that Goodbye Yellow Brick Road is a staggering seventeen songs long, it's no wonder this one flows better.I was a bit hesitant to try this CD when I saw it was the 1995 remaster. So many of these re-releases sound absolutely awful after all (Genesis?). But after having a good go at it, I was pleasantly surprised. The sound is very clear and there's plenty of dynamics through out. I love hearing the way Elton's piano booms over Davey Johnstone's guitar and the bass from Dee Murray. It's a very well put together great sounding record, no doubt helped by the production from Gus Dudgeon.I'm not one for picking a favourite song from the album. I think Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy is stronger as a whole than as separate pieces. There's no Candle in the Wind or Tiny Dancer to latch onto. It's just one good solid forty five minute rock n roll record. Folks looking for that hit single might be a bit put off by that but this is not a greatest hits package. It's a great album that deserves to be treated as such and I couldn't recommend it more.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Captains, cowboys & sugar bears
*by K***D on 23 April 2016*

Like many others here, I think this is one of Elton's best early albums, certainly one of his most cohesive. Apparently, the tracks were pretty much written in the order they appear, and the whole enterprise smacks of care and attention to detail.I didn't know most of these songs, other than the musically and lyrically wonderful Someone Saved My Life Tonight, the someone being, as we learn in John Tobler's excellent booklet notes {bring a magnifying glass!} fellow singer Long John Baldry, who is the song's 'sugar bear', and extra track Philadelphia Freedom, which I never used to like much but it's grown on me a lot, especially in such superb remastered sound.The rest of this fine album is sung and played with such obvious enjoyment ~ Elton's singing at its exhilarating best ~ that I was captivated by it. It's definitely up there with Madman Across the Water and Don't Shoot Me . . .It's easy to forget that in the early seventies Elton was simply another distinctive singer-songwriter, often well-reviewed, and it wasn't until a few LPs into his career that he became the big star he remains today.With its kaleidoscopic cover art, and some of Bernie Taupin's most personal lyrics, this is one of the gems in Elton's crown. Took me a while to 'get' it, but I'm so glad I did.
