This 2 June 2008 DELUXE EDITION 2CD set is a fully upgraded version of that breakthrough album and in my books is already up there as one of the re-issues of the year. Here's the layout: DISC 1 is the 10-track album originally released in the UK in October 1970 on DJM Records DJLPS 410 and in the USA on Uni Records 73096 (47:04 minutes) DISC 2 is the BONUS DISC containing 13 tracks, 10 of which are PREVIOUSLY UNRELEASED and the other 3 are RARITIES with upgraded sound from their previous release in 1988 (1 track) and 1995 (2 tracks) (61:07 minutes) Read More: Rating: - Tumbleweed Deluxe!Another remaster,another addition to Universal's very successful "Deluxe Edition" series.Some of which have been excellent value.We have already seen "Captain Fantastic" and "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" given very lavish deluxe treatment.According to the extensive essay by John Tobler contained within the booklet of this double cd reissue of one of Sir Elton's career defining early 70's albums for DJM records,it has been released(along with his self titled second album)to commemerate 40 years of recording.And what a wealth of material it contains.It's not so much how good the album sounds,it's all the extra material contained on the second disc,most of which is previously unreleased,that make these new deluxe editions a must have for any fan of ...
