ELTON JOHN: 40 Years in Photographs

The definitive portrait with unseen photographs by iconic photographer Terry O'Neill, this is like gazing through a window at the most extraordinary and exciting moments in Elton John's life complete with the madness and style. O'Neill worked for many years and took more than 5,000 photographs of Elton John from intimate back stage shots to huge stadium concerts. See Elton laden with packages leaving the Cartier shop for his Rolls Royce, during a soundcheck at the huge Dodge Stadium in Los Angeles where he truly did rock the world and had a football knockabout during rehearsals, under a huge fluffy rug on a bed reading Esquire and Penthouse magazines, wearing crazy glasses for a photo shoot aboard a plane, working with Gus Dudgeon at Caribou Ranch Recording Studio 1975, sharing a breakfast table with his white cat, signing his Captain Fantastic albums while watching TV at home, multifunctioning riding his stationary bicycle and taking phone calls in the bathroom, in sequin costumes, wearing designer labels, doing his trademark famous jump with hands still on the piano keyboard, with his long term collaborator Bernie Taupin, at home with his dogs in Windsor, dancing with Kiki Dee in 1976 when they released their classic duet, posing with his likeness in Madam Tussauds, with Diana Ross hosting the Rock Music Awards in 1975, posing with many famous names, behind the scenes at Watford Football Club, with his mother and grandmother and posing on locations such as the Palais Garnier Opera House in Paris. Elton John clearly loves the limelight! Truly a superb gallery, colour and atmospheric black and white, 256pp, 20.8 x 26cm.
