Description

Released in October 1975, ‘Rock Of The Westies’ is the tenth studio album by Elton John. Recorded at Caribou Ranch in Colorado and produced by Gus Dudgeon, the album captures the sound of Elton and his band having fun at the height of their mid-’70s success. It was, as Elton says today, “The most genuine rock and roll record that I’ve ever made.” 

‘Rock Of The Westies’ made history by entering the US Billboard 200 at No.1, where it remained for three consecutive weeks, and also reached the Top 5 of the UK Albums Chart. The album includes fan favourites “Grow Some Funk Of Your Own” and “Dan Dare (Pilot Of The Future)”. 

This special 50th Anniversary limited edition is available exclusively via D2C on 180g Blue Jay, Baby Blue and Sunshine Yellow tri-colour effect vinyl.
