I don't recall seeing this one offered here.
So I decided to share this with the Elton John fans here at Dimeadozen.
This is not a bootleg! These cd's are for radio broadcast and therefore
the source is Pre-FM.
This material has never been officially released.
The announcer and commercials have been carefully removed and
there are no sudden cuts between tacks. (Short fade in's and fade out's
when necessary)
I do not have artwork for this torrent. None came with the cd's!
Pic of CD's included.
The Spin Doctors Sets are not included.

Anyways.................
This is during Elton's "Reg Strikes Back" Tour.
Elton's playing and powerful voice are Spot On.
Although Elton does not attempt the higher notes in some songs (others he does) he most definitely gives an excellent performance.
Not bad for Elton at 41 Years Old.
Also note, I believe this is his first tour ever that he used an Electric Piano.
Hope you enjoy!
