Captain Fantastic & The Brown Dirt Cowboy music CDs Sitting atop the charts in 1975, Elton John and Bernie Taupin recalled their rise to power in Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy, their first explicitly conceptual effort since Tumbleweed Connection. Captain Fantastic & The Brown Dirt Cowboy songs It showcases each at the peak of his power, as John crafts supple, elastic, versatile pop and Taupin's inscrutable wordplay is evocative, even moving. Captain Fantastic & The Brown Dirt Cowboy album Although the musical skill on display here is dazzling, as it bounces between country and hard rock within the same song, this album needs time to reveal its treasures, but once it does, it captures John and Taupin at a career pinnacle. They collapsed in hubris and excess not long afterward, but this remains a testament to the strengths of their creative partnership. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine Additional Tracks; Deluxe Edition Personnel: Elton John (vocals, electric piano, harpsichord, Clavinet, Mellotron, ARP synthesizer); John Lennon (guitar); Davey Johnstone (acoustic guitar, electric guitar, mandolin, piano, background vocals); David Hentschel (ARP synthesizer); Dee Murray (bass guitar, background vocals); Nigel Olsson (drums, background vocals); Ray Cooper (congas, bongos, cymbals, Jew's harp, tambourine, triangle, bells, hand bells, gong).

| UNBEATABLE!!! UNBELIEVABLE!!! Captain Fantastic & The Brown Dirt Cowboy songs I have been a fan for about 22-years now... & this has always been my favorite album! I couldn't believe it when I found out this would include the entire album live! I've been to about 5 of his concerts & prayed for him to sing songs off this album, but have only heard "Better Off Dead" live. This is a real treat for any true Elton John fan!
