Elton John – 21 At 33 (The Rocket Record Company, 1983 Repress)
Released at a pivotal moment in his career, 21 At 33 serves as a balanced and highly enjoyable bridge into the 1980s. The title itself is a clever nod to the artist's prolific output, marking his 21st album release at the age of 33. Recorded in Nice with an expansive roster of musicians, this album captures Elton John’s transition toward a polished, melodic pop-rock sound that defined the era.
This release is noted for its "balanced" production and features a mix of playful uptempo numbers and the "sugary" ballads that became Elton's signature. It stands as a significant piece for collectors, representing a period where John collaborated with various lyricists, including Bernie Taupin and Gary Osborne, before reuniting with his classic band lineup later in the decade.
Key Tracks & Highlights:- "Little Jeannie": A standout, fascination-filled ballad featuring delicate female backing vocals.
- "Sartorial Eloquence": Widely regarded as one of the most impactful and magnificent songs in his discography.
- "Chasing the Crown": An energetic opener that sets the tone with lively, danceable rhythms.
- "White Lady White Powder": A delightful, playful track showcasing Elton’s creative vigor.
This 1983 CD repress from The Rocket Record Company is a must-have for fans looking to complete their collection of Elton John’s early '80s catalog, offering a "decidedly pleasant" listening experience from start to finish.
