Gus Dudgeon

Elton John bu duygu yüklü, her şeyin anlatıldığı yolculukta geçmişe dönüp hayatını ve 50 yıllık kariyerinin dudak uçuklatan ilk yıllarını anımsar. Elton John, Kuzey Amerika’daki Dodger Stadyumu’nda vereceği son konsere hazırlanırken bizi zamanda geriye götürüp sıkıntılarla, tacizlerle ve bağımlılıkla olan mücadelesini ve bugünkü ikon hâline gelmek için bu zorlukları nasıl aştığını anlatır.

Coming 50 years after the release of Space Oddity, the 90-minute film explores the Bowie before Ziggy Stardust, following the period from 1966 when he changed his name from David Jones to Bowie.

The worlds of glitz, glam, and pop-rock fused immortally on Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, born of the formidable partnership of Elton John and Bernie Taupin. This 1973 double album may well have been the peak of their collaboration. Ranging from perennial favorites like "Candle in the Wind," "Bennie and the Jets," and the title track to more ambitious compositions like "Funeral for a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding" and everything in between, Goodbye is unmatched in its depth and scope. This entry in the Classic Albums series of DVDs documents the often tumultuous writing and recording sessions for that masterpiece through vintage clips of the musicians in the studio and new interviews with Elton, Bernie, producer Gus Dudgeon, and the band members. We may never know how the John-Taupin team achieved their magic, but this release offers a both a peek at the process and a few reasons why the album endures today.
