Comment:

September 1998- I RARELY EVER DO SINGLE ARTIST MIXES, BUT THIS SUMMER, I'VE BEEN BOLSTERING MY CD COLLECTION WITH RE-ISSUES OF ELTON JOHN'S EARLIER WORK. THIS TAPE WAS BASICALLY AN EXCUSE TO PUT SOME OF MY FAVORITE SONGS FROM THOSE ALBUMS ON A MIX TAPE. IT ALSO GAVE ME A CHANCE TO THROW IN THE ELTON JOHN FAVORITES I GREW UP WITH, AND PUT IT ALL INTO SOME KIND OF CHRONOLOGICAL PERSPECTIVE. TWO SONGS I WISH I'D BEEN ABLE TO PUT ON THIS TAPE: "HEALING HANDS" FROM 1989'S "SLEEPING WITH THE PAST", AND "BELIEVE" FROM 1995'S "MADE IN ENGLAND". THE FOCUS ON THIS TAPE IS GENERALLY ON ELTON'S ARRANGEMENTS AND HIS BALLADS. SO WHILE, ALMOST ALL OF THE SONGS INCLUDED HERE WERE HITS (CERTAINLY NONE ARE OBSCURE OR RARE), THERE ARE SOME REALLY BIG HITS THAT WERE LEFT OFF (FOR GOOD REASON... I FIND "CROCODILE ROCK" ABSOLUTELY DETESTABLE, BUT, HEY, THAT'S JUST ME... OH WELL).
