- Assuming you know about "Rare Masters" and "To Be Continued..." which
- covers a lot of formerly rare stuff, the following is based on two souurces,
- Phillip Norman's biography plus my own collection which has things
- not mentioned in the biography. This does not include his K-tel-like
- covers from the late '60's/1970. And I'm sure I missed something!
- (I may have a sealed japanese version of the boxed set available a
- round Jan 5.--write then if interested.)
-
- Paul MacLauchlan (sp?) of Toronto has an outstanding Discography and
- collection as well. Folks with large EJ collections can be r
- eached via the very active Elton John mail group. Write to
- elton-john-request@uiuc.edu. Dan Blanchard
- is our Star Programmer/Manager of the works and I am the Founder/
- Mentor/Steve Brown figure.
-
- (I have all recordings except those with an asterisk after the date.
- Please let me know if you have an additional copy of those for sale/trade.)
