Editorial Review:
On March 25, the remarkable Elton John proudly turned 60 years old. To celebrate the occasion, he performed his 60th concert at Madison Square Garden, and two days later released a newly compiled and digitally remastered collection of his greatest hits from past to present. This over 78-minute-long compilation is the first-ever single disc to cover the first 35 years of the great singer-songwriter's career. This limited edition comes with a bonus DVD, containing 5 live performances from the NBC broadcast of Elton's Red Piano concert, including his hits "Bennie and the Jets," "Rocket Man," "Candle in the Wind 1997," "Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting," and "Your Song." It also features 5 music videos, including "Your Song," "I Guess That's Why They Call It the Blues," "I'm Still Standing," and "I Want Love"--the latter featuring Robert Downey Jr.--plus Elton's new video for his latest single, "Tinderbox," only available here.

Rating: - A Long, Long, Time of Hits!
This release coincided with Elton's 60th birthday in March of 2007. And while there have been many greatest hits collections over the years, this one offers pretty much the best of the hits.

But it does include some good selections of his music and all of the selections sound familiar and as I am used to hearing them. This is an advantage over some of his other greatest hit compilations which include selections that were not hits and in order to get all of the hits on one album you have to receive ... Read More
Rating:  - There are so many favorites that are missing
The Good
All twelve of Elton John's U.S. #1's are here. Some are obvious, "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road," "Bennie & The Jets," "Daniel," "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me "and" Can You Feel the Love Tonight." Others may puzzle you; "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds," "Island Girl," and "Sorry Seems to be the Hardest Word." In addition John's top singles (and to fill out the album a little more), he's included five more favorites; "Your Song," "Tiny Dancer," "Rocket Man," "Candle in the Wind," and "Saturday ...
