Ticking

On Caribou. This epic tale of a young man who goes on a murderous rampage rates with "Indian Sunset" and "Song For Guy" as obscure fan favorites. Elton originally laid down the piano while listening to a whisper track of his vocal. In the end, the only way he could do the vocals and piano right was to record them at the same time. Because of the intricate piano playing, it remains a remarkable testament to his musicianship.
