Sex, money, cocaine, fame, cocaine, success, sex, admiration, sex, touring, cocaine, hobnobbing, sexy cocaine, cocaine-addled sex ... quite the lifestyle. Through it all, there was the music. John was on an amazing run with 11 albums in seven years, from 1969 to 1976. All of them reached the Billboard Top 10, and five of them hit No. 1. Millions upon millions of copies sold. Songs that are still stone-cold classics of classic rock. And Don’t Shoot Me I’m Only the Piano Player dropped on Jan. 26, 1973, in the thick of this remarkable sequence. It’s almost impossible to identify a style that emerges from most of these albums; in a sense, they sound like one long Elton John album broken out into installments, especially once 1972’s Honky Chateau hits. But there does seem to be a theme emerging here for Elton and his songwriting partner Bernie Taupin. They both nurse a growing obsession with the past, an idealized vision of the music, and memories of childhood and adolescence.
