'Goodbye Yellow Brick Road': The Making Of An Epic [Episode 353]

Released in 1973, 'Goodbye Yellow Brick Road' marked a creative peak for Elton John — a bold, genre-spanning double album that helped define his legacy. In this episode, we explore the making of the album with authors Andrea Grasso and Luca Perasi, co-authors of 'Elton John: Goodbye Yellow Brick Road – The Making of an Epic Album'. They share behind-the-scenes stories from the Château d’Hérouville sessions, insights into Elton John and Bernie Taupin’s creative partnership, and why this ambitious record continues to resonate more than 50 years later. From glittering anthems to intimate ballads, this is the story of how one of rock’s greatest albums came to life. Purchase a copy of Elton John: Goodbye Yellow Brick Road.
