Elton John's "The Beginning Sound".
A debut work reminiscent of her future stardom.
"Empty Sky" was his debut album, recorded in 1969, but released in the US in 1975. While based on an acoustic sound, his extraordinary talent as a melody maker shines through everywhere. This work is full of the breath of a young Elton on the eve of his evolution into luxurious pop.
