Keith gets some great interviews with obscure but important and interesting peopleBy elton1111Keith gets some great interviews with obscure but important and interesting people, like Gary Osborne, Caleb Quaye and Ray Williams. If you know who these people are, then this book is for you. So I really enjoyed that. He tells the very interesting back stories of Davey Johnstone and others before they were associated with Elton. The one problem I had with the book is that it is occasionally clunky with its prose. I do think Keith could have used an editor to smooth out some awkward phrasings. But again, the book is definitely worth it for any Elton fan.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. A glimpse behind the scenes of the Elton John Band and its inner workings.By Greg R. VadimskyA nice addition to my Elton book collection. The only thing that could have made it better would have been more participation from Elton, Bernie, and his band members over the years. There was a lot of "padding", i.e., writing about other artists who crossed paths with Elton but weren't necessarily involved heavily with him. Overall recommended though, and there were some nice tidbits revealed about personal and behind the scenes happenings. I think the cover photo is awful and does the book a major injustice.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Whats With That Cover?By MVery good sequel to Tin Pan Alley: The Rise Of Elton John with some nice B@W pics included. Interesting info from Elton's band mates and associates. One of the best books out there on Elton. Although , out of the thousands of pics taken of Elton during the 1970's , this is the one chosen for the cover? From Tin Pan Alley To The Yellow Brick Road is author Keith Hayward's sequel to the critically acclaimed Tin Pan Alley: The Rise of Elton John. It continues Elton John's story from the start of his solo career and his breakthrough with 'Your Song' to the end of the seventies. A time where Elton achieved unparalleled success, but at a price. Personal relationships and the physical exhaustion of being one of the most in demand performers in the world are documented alongside the sometimes ruthless business side of the music world. With contributions from many people who played a big part in Elton's success, including his manager John Reid, David Larkham (cover designer), Stuart Epps, Steve James, Kenny Passarelli, Roger Pope (whom the author managed) and Kiki Dee. This is a journey through the music business - from the mid sixties through to the end of seventies - as seen through Elton's career.Complete with a comprehensive gig list that has been painstakingly researched to include gigs as far back as 1966, From Tin Pan Alley To The Yellow Brick Road is a thought provoking and engaging read that places Elton John's success within the context of the multi-faceted and sometimes complex world of the music business. About the AuthorKeith Hayward's previous book was Tin Pan Alley: The Rise of Elton John.
