Underrated, compared to the album that came directly before ( Honky Chateau) and directly afterwards ( Goodbye Yellow Brick Road). Two of his best, along with Captain Fantastic later. Highlights are: High Flying Bird, Teenage Idol, Teacher I Need You, Daniel, Crocodile Rock and Texan Love Song. It is not a classic Elton album, or a breakthroughs album of any sort, but contains some good songs. It was also his first number one album in the UK and second in the US.
