Jewel

The ultimate exploration into Elton John’s extensive back catalogue, ‘Jewel Box’ encompasses a selection of deep cuts chosen by Elton himself; rarities from the earliest stage of his and Bernie Taupin’s musical journey; B-sides spanning 30 years, and songs discussed in Elton’s best-selling, critically acclaimed 2019 memoir, ‘Me’. The eight discs come in a beautiful hardcover book, enclosed in an outer slipcase. Each section contains extensive notes and, for ‘Deep Cuts’, there is track-by-track commentary by Elton. The set contains an unprecedented number of previously unheard, unreleased tracks from 1965-1971, the years that cemented the foundations of the iconic John-Taupin partnership: ‘Jewel Box’ truly is a treasure trove for Elton John fans.

25th anniversary Deluxe Edition of Jewel’s second album, Spirit. The 2-CD set includes the singles, “Hands,” “Down So Long” and “Jupiter.” The Deluxe Edition features eight previously unreleased demos and outtakes, rare live performances, and a collection of singles. The original 1998 release debuted at number 3 on the Billboard 200. “Hands” was named Music Week’s Single of the Week, who stated that it “is a delicious, softly-sung number, showcasing this talented Alaskan’s songwriting skills.”
