Every working musician today owes their career to Elton John, the consummate piano man. He's defined pop music in ways that can still be heard today, especially through such artists as Ed Sheeran and Sara Bareilles. Not only has he influenced Top 40, but he shook rock-n-roll and country music to the core, setting the bar high for generations to come. So, it's no wonder that on the newly re-released Goodbye Yellow Brick Road many of today's superstar artists (from all genres of life) have come together to deliver a remarkable project, celebrating its 40th anniversary and Sir Elton's birthday!
