One of Elton’s greatest shows caught on recording. This was 10th last show of Elton and Ray Cooper’s extensive year-long two-man tour. This crisp audience recording highlights the quality of the musicianship of EJ and Ray.
This performance was recorded at the Hordern Pavilion in Sydney on November 25 1979.

Enjoy!
