Blogger was down for most of yesterday, so that means that G-A-Y Day(s) will more than likely be extended until Saturday. We've hunted down a couple of new posts that need sharing, so we're going to fudge and pretend that the Stonewall Riots lasted wayyyyy longer than they actually did, so that we can pack more posts in. But enough of this housecleaning talk...
Madman Across the Water has one of the most amazing side one's that you'll ever listen to on an album. Side two is another issue, being that the album devolves rather quickly after the flip, which is why Honkey Château is my favorite Elton John album. But what a 'side one' it is. Couple that with a Steve Hoffman analogue remaster and Dr. Robert rip and one has a quality trifecta that shouldn't be missed. Enjoy some Elton John!.
