Love Elton John? You’ll love these new tribute albums (out now)!
A set of Elton John tribute albums were released Friday and they feature SO many great artists. Revamp and Restoration: Reimagining the Songs of Elton John and Bernie Taupin pay tribute to the long time song-writing partners, and whether you’re a little bit country or a little bit rock n’ roll, these tributes have something for everyone. Elton John was said to have headed up Revamp (which features a number of pop, rock and R&B artists), and Taupin supposedly handled Restoration which a number of country covers of the pair’s songwriting catalogue. Both are great.
