专辑介绍：
Elton John早期著名专辑《Madman across the water（疯人渡河）》发片于1971年。是Elton风格最为统一的一张专辑，钢琴民谣+灵歌+弦乐编制的独特曲风在当时以迷幻之风、硬式摇滚为代表的英国乐坛中显得独树一帜。
艺术摇滚风潮来临之前的Elton是我最喜欢的Elton, 我个人认为这是他最好听的专辑，很快，Elton就卷入艺术摇滚风潮之中，他独树一帜的风格在这浪潮中夸张地演绎著，反正在七十年代初期之后，他就再也没有诞生如此清新风格的专辑了。
这张专辑有完整的现场版录像，在录像中我发现Elton是如此的年轻，却又如此的卓越，怎么说呢，用清爽、质朴、典雅来形容应该不为过，他的嗓音时而清澈灵动、时而激情满怀，好似飘于云端之上，又远在旷野之中，我似乎嗅到了麦香和野花野草的清香。手上的钢琴自然地敲击著，时而轻巧别致，时而轰轰烈烈。他标志性的民谣摇滚钢琴风格在此专辑中佔有很大的分量，展现著他嫻熟的技巧和丰厚的艺术底蕴。
Elton假声尖锐，有时可能有些刺耳，估计他那时的嗓音还没有完全绽放，似乎处在欲打开却未打开之间，所以有些稚嫩而不甚完美，不过年轻的Elton混声状态特别好，声音清澈而高亢，可见他的音域也是惊人的。他的摇滚特质也已初露锋芒--副歌中高亢而略带嘶喊的成分。也许正是这种青涩才使这张专辑如此的清新、质朴，甚至纯粹。

Empty Sky was followed by Elton John, a more focused and realized record that deservedly became his first hit. John and Bernie Taupin's songwriting had become more immediate and successful; in particular, John's music had become sharper and more diverse, rescuing Taupin's frequently nebulous lyrics. "Take Me to the Pilot" might not make much sense lyrically, but John had the good sense to ground its willfully cryptic words with a catchy blues-based melody. Next to the increased sense of songcraft, the most noticeable change on Elton John is the addition of Paul Buckmaster's grandiose string arrangements. Buckmaster's orchestrations are never subtle, but they never overwhelm the vocalist, nor do they make the songs schmaltzy. Instead, they fit the ambitions of John and Taupin, as the instant standard "Your Song" illustrates. Even with the strings and choirs that dominate the sound of the album, John manages to rock out on a fair share of the record. Though there are a couple of underdeveloped songs, Elton John remains one of his best records. [The CD reissue includes the bonus tracks "Bad Side of the Moon," "Grey Seal," and "Rock n Roll Madonna."]
