Big Elton fan but never got around to listening to this album until now. Dee is the man! Especially on this album! A lot of Groovemasteresque playing. This is definitely going on my blog!

Edit: Not my best post. Sorry (though I ought to get points for enthusiasm). Thoughts on the album? Dee?

One of my all-time fave albums. Dee was my inspiration to play bass in the mid-70s, see my signature.
There are two different official releases of that album, the original, and the remastered version with one additional song. I don't care for the remastered version, Gus did some "tinkering" with the bass that I don't like.
There's a 3rd, unofficial version, it's the one I listen to, it's a bootleg with the complete broadcast, and sounds as good as the original release. Here 'tis:
