Notes

Elton John with Alex Petridis.
pages
colour illustrations.
Summary: His life has been full of drama, from the early rejection of his work with songwriting partner Bernie Taupin to spinning out of control as a chart-topping superstar; from half-heartedly trying to drown himself in his LA swimming pool to disco-dancing with the Queen; from friendships with John Lennon, Freddie Mercury and George Michael to setting up his AIDS Foundation. All the while, Elton was hiding a drug addiction that would grip him for over a decade. In a voice that is warm, humble and open, this is Elton on his music and his relationships, his passions and his mistakes.
