Elton John, a British pianist and singer-songwriter, recently acknowledged that he never watches or listens to his own great songs.
On Friday, February 7, the renowned 77-year-old guitarist joined Brandi Carlile on The Scott Mills Breakfast Show.
The Sacrifice crooner disclosed during the conversation, “I wouldn’t go and put my old music on.” I had to give my OK for a live record that is about to be released for Record Store Day. I performed with Ray Cooper at The Rainbow in 1977, and I was blown away by how amazing it was.
Elton went on to joke, “It was incredible! That was something I had to listen to, but I found it to be incredibly enjoyable and was pleasantly surprised by how fantastic it was—he said that modestly, but I was!
