Yet another compilation

Greatest Hits 1976-1986 was originally supposed to be the successor to Elton Johns 1987 compilation Greatest Hits Volume III, both released in the US and Canada only, due to a shift in the rights, only to have them all under one roof by the end of the century to cut a long story short. No songs from 1986 are actually on here as there were no big hits off of Leather Jackets anyway, and Too Low for Zero isn't on here either as that wasn't even a single, just a filler track though Princess or All Quiet on the Western Front would have made more sense even though they were flops. This collection came out within months of The One though in the past it was normal to have more than one official Elton John release a year (there used to be licenced compilations of the older material that he may not even know exist). Whether you're a loyal or casual fan it's value for money. I just had to have it from his husbands homeland as I prefer to collect imports.Read full review
