NotesReleased in May 1972, Honky Chateau is the fifth studio album by Elton John, which includes singles'Rocket Man' and 'Honky Cat'. Named after the eighteenth century Chateau d'Herouville outside Paris where it was recorded, this 50th anniversary edition contains the original album and a newly created selection of outtakes from the original session tapes. Includes an eight-page booklet containing rare photos, memorabilia and an essay featuring interviews from those who were there at the time.
My LP collection was destroyed by a California wildfire in 2018, so I kinda gave up on owning records anymore. Then for Christmas my daughter gave me a copy of Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, which brought bake so many amazing memories. Shortly after the New Year I went searching for two of my other favorite Elton John albums, buying both "Captain Fantastic" and "Don't Shoot Me, I'm Only the Piano Player". This wasn't enough, so I then found THIS treasure, "Honky Chateau", and also "Tumbleweed Connection", rounding out my Top 5 EJ albums (sorry, diehard fans, Madman ranks somewhere around #10). I then bought a lovely gramophone-style LP player for the living room, and Honky Chateau was the first of these albums I played. Outstanding! I had forgotten how nice vinyl sounded! I have a feeling I will be slowly rebuilding my collection from now on, all thanks to my darling daughter!
