At Philadelphia’s Wells Fargo Center in 1998, Elton and the band gave the title track from his 1975 album (the first to ever enter the Billboard Top 200 at #1) a slightly slower rendition than usual in concert, which only adds weight to the autobiographical song’s reflective lyrics. That is John Jorgenson (Desert Rose Band, Hellecasters), who toured with Elton from 1995-1998, providing mandolin accompaniment and Music Director Davey Johnstone, still leading the band on Elton’s Farewell tour, switching back and forth between acoustic and electric guitars.

The first album l bought with my babysitter money was Captain Fantastic and The Brown Dirt Cowboys. I was so proud of myself.

@GermaineODonnell 20 дней назад

Love that!!

@MichaelTJD60 5 лет назад

Perhaps one of the best songs he and Bernie ever wrote. This one NEEDS to be played on the last leg of the Farewell tour...no exceptions!

i get nostalgic for my childhood in the mid70s when I hear this song. my sister and I would study the album cover art and listen to every song on this album over and over again

@tommybass40 2 года назад

One of Elton’s best songs, great album too.

@joelanderos23 Год назад

this was the first album ever to be #1 before it was even released . it sure helped that cpt fantastic followed yellow brick road. but the next one, rock of the westies, didn't do so well even if it had ''island girl'' on it. i collected all of his albums starting in '75 when i was stationed in germany and had a top of the line stereo system.

Maybe Elton thinks it is too complex - maybe why they slowed it down? Just sayin. There is loads going on.

Davey Johnstone enjoying this makes me smile! I loved this album! RIP Dee 😪 His bass part missing is noticeable. Peace! ✌ I think I like the studio track better. The way Davey rips the chords on the chorus is some of the best lead guitar ever graced upon human ears.
