Description:
In September 1976, 'Live at the Playhouse Theatre' captured an extraordinary moment in Elton John's career when he was dominating the charts with his first UK number one single, "Don't Go Breaking My Heart." Recorded during the Edinburgh Festival of Popular Music, this electrifying solo performance showcases Elton at the zenith of his '70s popularity. Kicking off with "Skyline Pigeon" from the album 'Empty Sky,' the concert features a setlist brimming with classic hits including "Rocket Man," "Daniel," and "Bennie and the Jets." This was also the first time Elton performed "Don't Go Breaking My Heart" solo, climbing onto his piano and delivering an unforgettable virtuoso performance. After this intense concert, Elton took a break from performing for another seven months, making 'Live at the Playhouse Theatre' a truly memorable testament to his talent and passion.
