Released to coincide with the 50th anniversary of his songwriting partnership with Bernie Taupin, the 3CD limited edition box set version of ‘Diamonds’ is the ultimate greatest hits collection from Elton John. Kicking off with the still-stunning ‘Your Song’, the first 2 CDs bring together all the landmark hits including ‘Tiny Dancer’, ‘Rocket Man’, ‘Candle In The Wind’, ‘Don’t Go Breaking My Heart’, ‘Sacrifice’, ‘Can You Feel The Love Tonight’ and many more. Making an appearance for the first time on an Elton hits collection it also features Elton’s duet with George Michael on the classic ‘Don’t Let The Sun Go Down On Me’. Meanwhile, the 3rd disc, unavailable elsewhere, includes 17 bonus tracks of personal favourites compiled by Elton himself.
Housed in an attractive lidded box, this version of ‘Diamonds’ also contains a 72-page hardback book containing annotations for the stories behind each track plus a set of five postcards of illustrations of iconic Elton looks by contemporary artist Richard Kilroy.
