Recorded in 1971, it was a foundation stone of what was to become a dazzlingly prolific decade for the global-icon-in-waiting. Madman Across The Water was largely written after Elton had made his initial foray to America, offering the opportunity for lyricist Bernie Taupin to witness first-hand the landscapes and people he'd only seen on a screen or on the page. Recorded at Trident Studios in Central London in February and August 1971, it was the first album where all five players of Elton's fabled band lineup (Dee Murray, Nigel Olsson, Davey Johnstone, and Ray Cooper) were featured. The album also featured Yes keyboardist Rick Wakeman, who plays Hammond organ on three songs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe box set includes a 40-page booklet with introductions by Elton John and Bernie Taupin, photos and full essay featuring interviews with many who helped make Madman Across The Water, plus a reproduction 1971 poster, as well as memorabilia and artwork from the Rocket Archive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection id=\"features\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e50th Anniversary Edition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4LP Box Set\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLP 1: Madman Across The Water remastered by Bob Ludwig in 2016\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLP 2 \u0026amp; 3: Demos, live \u0026amp; alternative versions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLP 4: BBC Sounds For Saturday concert, first broadcast in 1972\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e40-page booklet with introductions by Elton \u0026amp; Bernie, photos \u0026amp; full essay with interviews\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReproduction 1971 poster\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArtwork from the Rocket Archive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection id=\"selections\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSelections\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eMadman Across The Water (2016 Bob Ludwig Remaster)\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSIDE A:\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTiny Dancer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLevon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRazor Face\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMadman Across The Water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSIDE B:\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndian Sunset\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHoliday Inn\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRotten Peaches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll The Nasties\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDemos, Live \u0026amp; Alternate Versions\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSIDE C:\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndian Sunset (Live Radio Broadcast)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMadman Across The Water (Original Version, featuring Mick Ronson)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRock Me When He's Gone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLevon (Mono Single Version)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGoodbye (2016 Bob Ludwig Remaster)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSIDE D:\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRazor Face (Extended Version)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRock Me When He's Gone (Piano Demo)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRock Me When He's Gone (Full Version)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSIDE E:\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMadman Across The Water (1970 Piano Demo)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTiny Dancer (Piano Demo)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLevon (Piano Demo)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRazor Face (Piano Demo)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMadman Across The Water (1971 Piano Demo)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSIDE F:\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndian Sunset (Piano Demo)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHoliday Inn (Piano Demo)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRotten Peaches (Piano Demo)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll The Nasties (Piano Demo)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGoodbye (Piano Demo)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eBBC Sounds For Saturday\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSIDE G:\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTiny Dancer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRotten Peaches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRazor Face\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHoliday Inn\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSIDE H:\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndian Sunset\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLevon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMadman Across The Water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGoodbye\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"UMG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54453659533641,"sku":"602435836188","price":39.4,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/echoarchiv.com\/products\/pre-order-elton-john-madman-across-the-water-50th-anniversary-4lp-box-set","provider":"Echo Archive Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
