Elton John’s nickname is “Rocket Man”, So dubbed after his huge number one hit, of the same name in 1972, from his “Honkey Chateau” album. However, his very good friend Rod Stewart always calls him Sharon!
But….Get this, didja know that Rod did a huge solid for his friend “Sharon” when in 1970 Rod recorded and released “Country Comfort”…. An early song from Elton John and Bernie Taupin. A full two years prior to Elton releasing it in 1972 on his “Tumbleweed Connection” album!
“That’s what friends are for”!
Soooo, Let’s listen to Rod’s recording from “Gasoline Alley”…….”For Sharon”
Interesting. Very English. Libbie Jo
Yes, dear Libbie Jo….”Vair-day English” However, all things considered, it made me laugh first time I heard it!
Thanx for joining in the conversation….
Come back soon!
