Elton John Diamonds (SDE Blu-Ray #31) Dec. 27th, 2024

I must admit, listening to any full album after May 1975's Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy and I'm out... Although I do have Rock of The Westies, Blue Moves and A Single Man somewhere on CD.

Too Low For Zero is slowly starting to grow on me due to the Atmos mix.

I think Rock of the westies was his last great album, Blue moves was the last album I bought of his at the time

wow this is pretty awesome. just looked at the track list and was really hoping to see Shoorah on there...

My logic is that any SDE release that also offers video content is not strictly a 'pure audio' disc. So #15 Soft Cell, Non-Stop Erotic Cabaret is another candidate

You may remember that during UMG’s short-lived HFPA initiative, Bon Jovi - Slippery When Wet was issued in the white HFPA case even though the disc included video content as well.

I think Island Girl benefits as much as any song on Diamonds from the Atmos treatment.

Blue Moves is Steven Wilson’s favourite EJ album, maybe it’s on his list of possible surround remixes, especially given the appearance of Elton John on The Future Bites. You never know….

I don’t know that much about this particular album. Does anyone know if the tracks are from when he was in his prime or were they done later in life? Thanks.

Diamonds is a greatest hits album

All the tracks are listed on the SDE web page. The 'hits' cover a period from 1970 to 2016...

Here is an article I wrote about the streaming release of Diamonds in Atmos, including an interview with Greg Penny.

Almost 4 hours of music, I consume this in parts

Ordered. Rocket Man is a perennial streaming Atmos demo track for me due to that initial explosion from the rears, so that’s worth the price of entry alone. Let alone 47 other Atmos tracks
