Frank,
I just thought of someone-
Elton John. Tumbleweed Connection was, IMHO his best work. It had that "I want to be in this business so bad" feel to it. In other words Elton put his heart and soul into that album. There are artists who do the same, give it there all into their first album, it becomes an overnight sensation, and unfortunately they never match that success ever again. Not so with Elton. With each album his popularity increased. There was that brief time when he thought he could do better w/o Bernie Taupin in his band but he soon realized that was a mistake and Bernie was reunited with his band. Now, with his latest album, Elton has returned to the sound he had with TC and I like it very much. BTW, Elton has a home in the ATL area and has played at Philips arena numerous times. He was the first act to open our building, he's had 2 private concerts and a second concert for the public. We have dubbed him our "house band". (LOL)
