Have you thought about downloading each individual track from the album on MP3Juices. Thats what I do with old obscure albums.
Well, along with everything else going on last night, it was The Last Night of The Proms at The Royal Albert Hall. I went 44 years ago, and I think things might have changed a bit!
The rise of the accordion... playing the tango! Whatever next? Can't find a vid of that yet, but here she is at the Belgian version of the event back in 2014. Not sure about "Blue", frankly, but I'll have some of that accordion...
A great modern mix of several Elton John songs in one which bring back many happy memories (1980's....), family holidays et al - happy memories much needed right now...

"Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things" - Yma o Hyd.
The Elton John and Dua Lipa song immediately bought bad memories of Jive Bunny and the Mixmasters from 1989! i.e. several classics all linked together with the same disco beat.
Not a style I ever wanted to hear again... but each to his/her own!
A lot of artists including Elton John have released lockdown albums with some appropriately themed songs. I tried his latest which was a poppy mixup of his old songs with new artists, some will like it but it wasn't for me.
Paul Weller released an album this year called "On Sunset" which is a bit wishy washy. One of the better ones IMO is Bon Jovi's new album "2020". Will try Pearl Jam's latest offering, "Gigaton" next.
Who is the happier man, he who has braved the storm of life and lived or he who has stayed securely on shore and merely existed? - Hunter S Thompson

ZERO like the "Mixmasters from 1989" which were absolutely dire. But as you say, each to his/her own.
As buksida, can't say I enjoyed Elton John's latest album as a whole - just enjoyed this in particular.

I have just discovered the enigma that is Buckethead. What an amazing guitarist. Has anyone else heard him?
Never heard of him but here's a taste of his style.
