Elton John - The Diving Board

Review by Alex Lee Thomson

We must demand more from those musical giants who have earned our love and adoration over the years, and if they can’t hack it on record anymore, they need to stop diluting the catalogue. »

Elton John releases one of the most distinguished records of his unparalleled career. 'The Diving Board' is a sophisticated new chapter in his unique songbook, and a work of old-school sonic clarity. A return to the piano-bass-drums construction of Elton's early years, and a celebration of his brilliance not just as a song craftsman but as a world-class pianist, 'The Diving Board' will evoke memories of the groundbreaking albums that established him in the early 1970s.
