Der Mitschnitt des spektakulären Auftritts von Elton John im Caesars Palace in Las Vegas. Der exaltierte Künstler trat in seiner Karriere über 200-mal in der Wüstenstadt auf, im September 2011 fand aber trotzdem eine Premiere statt. Neben ihm stand sein Instrument, ein in mehreren Jahren entstandener Spezialflügel, im Mittelpunkt. Dieser gab der Show auch den Namen. Die in Bild und Ton perfekt eingefangene Show beinhaltete natürlich die gröt︣en Hits, die Elton John mal solo, mal in kleiner Besetzung oder mit Bigband-Begleitung aufführte. Making-of, Live in Kiev.

The 1996 reissue of DON''T SHOOT ME I''M ONLY THE PIANO PLAYER was the first of two 1973 albums that sealed Elton John''s superstardom. It included his first U.S. #1 single, the nostalgic "Crocodile Rock," along with one of his most enduring ballads, "Daniel," a veiled salute to a Vietnam vet. By now, John was at ease in almost any musical setting. While lyricist Bernie Taupin continued to feed him the usual mix of road songs, homages to the American West, and offbeat love ballads, John was flying ahead with an ambitious, try-anything agenda that effectively blurred the lines between AM pop and FM rock. "Crocodile Rock"''s whimsicality, with its vintage Farfisa organ, and "Daniel," a seductive studio concoction of keyboards and acoustic guitar, leaned toward the former. "Elderberry Wine" approached the latter, with its hard guitar sound and blues-rock horn-riffing, as did "Have Mercy On The Criminal," whose central riff echoes "Layla." "I''m Gonna Be A Teenage Idol," a tribute to Marc Bolan of T-Rex, lies tantalizingly across the center of the pop-rock line, sounding like a cabaret version of glitter-rock. By now, Elton John''s place in history was assured; months later, his domination of his era would come to full fruition with the release of GOODBYE YELLOW BRICK ROAD.
