Album Review
"Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" was where Elton John's personality began to gather more attention than his music, as it topped the American charts for eight straight weeks. In many ways, the double album was a recap of all the styles and sounds that made John a star. "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" is all over the map, beginning with the prog rock epic "Funeral For A Friend (Love Lies Bleeding)" and immediately careening into the balladry of "Candle In The Wind." For the rest of the album, John leaps between popcraft ("Bennie And The Jets"), ballads ("Goodbye Yellow Brick Road"), hard rock ("Saturday Night'S Alright For Fighting"), novelties ("Jamaica Jerk-Off"), Bernie Taupin's literary pretensions ("The Ballad Of Danny Bailey"), and everything in between. Though its diversity is impressive, the album doesn't hold together very well. Even so, its individual moments are spectacular and the glitzy, crowd-pleasing showmanship that fuels the album pretty much defines what made Elton John a superstar in the early '70s. ["Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" was also released in a bonus DVD edition featuring a making-of documentary.] ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
