Recorded in Atlanta this umpteenth studio album from the former Reg Dwight has a strong Southern soul feel to it. The 12 songs co-written with long-time songwriting partner Bernie Taupin include the current single ‘All That I’m Allowed’ and strong numbers like the soulful ‘Porch Swing In Tupelo’ and the autobiographical ‘Weight Of The World’ where he sings “I’m happy to say that I’m amazed I’m still around.
So are we!
