ELTON JOHN -
the lost demo sessions of '69
(includes the famous Nick Drake demos)
This cd was released exclusively by hard-el records number HD-001 in November 2004 and is an absolute
must for Elton John, Linda Thompson and Nick Drake fans.
In 1969 the famous producer Joe Boyd produced this demo album promoting various songs written by John Martyn, Nick Drake,
Beverly Martin, Mike Heron, and Ed Carter who were members of the Warlock publishing stable. The session featured Elton John
- Piano and Vocals, Linda Peters (soon to become Linda Thompson when she married Richard Thompson) - Vocals, Jim Capaldi -
Drums, Simon Nicol - Guitar, Pat Donaldson - Bass, with arrangements by Del Newman. This album practically disappeared until
the end of the '80s but is a truly magnificent showcase of Elton's early talents. There are a very few white label vinyl
copies of this album in existence (about 7 are accounted for) making this a very rare collection indeed.
