Elton John Ice on Fire

"Ice on Fire", released in November 1985, is the nineteenth official album release for Elton John. Recorded at Sol Studios, it was his first album since 1976' "Blue Moves" produced by his original long-time producer, Gus Dudgeon, who was responsible for John's success in that timespan, but it was met with little praise, and only reached #48 on the US charts, although it reached #3 in the UK. George Michael, then of Wham!, appears on two tracks on the album: "Nikita" and "Wrap Her Up".

"Tumbleweed Connection" is the 3rd studio album by English singer-songwriter Elton John. It is a concept album based on country and western/Americana themes. All songs are written by John and Bernie Taupin, with the exception of "Love Song" by Lesley Duncan. The album was recorded at Trident Studios, London, England in March 1970 and released in October of the same year. It peaked at #2 on the UK Albums Chart and #5 on the US Billboard 200 chart. In the US, it was certified Gold in March 1971 and Platinum in August 1998 by the RIAA. In 2003, "Tumbleweed Connection" was ranked #458 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time.

"Caribou" is the 8th studio album by Elton John released in 1974. It was his 4th chart-topping album in the United States and his 3rd in the United Kingdom. The album contains the singles, "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me", which reached #16 in the UK Singles Chart and #2 in the US, and "The Bitch Is Back", which reached #15 in the UK and #4 in the US. Both these singles reached #1 in Canada on the RPM 100 national Top Singles Chart (as did the album itself). In the US the album was certified Gold in July 1974 and was certified Platinum and 2x Platinum in March 1993 by the RIAA. The album was nominated for the Grammy Award for Album of the Year at the 17th Annual Grammy Awards.

"Don't Shoot Me I'm Only the Piano Player" is the 6th studio album by Elton John. Released in January, 1973 by DJM Records, it was John's 6th normal studio album release, and was his second straight #1 album in the US, yielding his first #1 single in both the US and Canada: "Crocodile Rock". "Daniel" was also a major hit from the album, giving him his second Canadian #1 single on the RPM Top Singles Chart and just missing the top slot south of the border, still reaching a successful #2 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and reaching #4 in the UK, one place higher than achieved by "Crocodile Rock".

"Elton John" is the second album by English singer-songwriter Elton John, released in April 1970. However, because it was his first album released in America, many people there assumed it was his first album, as "Empty Sky" was not released in the US until 1975. Elton John includes his breakthrough hit, "Your Song", and helped to establish his career during what was considered the "singer-songwriter" era of popular music. In the US, it was certified gold in February 1971 by the RIAA. In the same year, it was nominated for the Grammy Award for Album of the Year.

"A Single Man", released in 1978, is the 12th studio album release for Elton John. It is the first album where Gary Osborne replaced Bernie Taupin as lyricist. It is also the only Elton John album to not have any tracks co-written by Bernie Taupin on the original cut. The album was released on 16 October 1978 by MCA in America, and by Rocket in the UK. Singles from the album were "Part-Time Love", October 1978; "Song for Guy", November 1978; and "Return to Paradise", 1979. "Song for Guy" was a near-global success, charting high everywhere except the US and Canada, where John's label, MCA Records, did not feel that it had hit potential. "A Single Man" was John's first album ever to be officially released in the former USSR. In the US, A Single Man was certified Gold in October 1978 and Platinum in November of the same year by the RIAA. Like with many of John's releases of the late-70s and the 1980s, it received generally mixed reviews from critics.
