As his final world tour ground to a Covid-19 halt for more than a year, Elton John sort of seems to have stumbled into making new music adding up to the suitably named album The Lockdown Sessions due to be released 22 October this year.
It is a 16 track collaboration album and here's what Elton has to say about it:
All the tracks I worked on were really interesting and diverse, stuff that was completely different to anything I’m known for, stuff that took me out of my comfort zone into completely new territory.
At the start of my career, in the late 60s, I worked as a session musician. Working with different artists during lockdown reminded me of that. I was a session musician again. And it was still a blast.
Four of the songs have already been released in 2020 and 2021 as separate tracks. They're marked with a *.
1. Elton John & Dua Lipa – Cold Heart (PNAU Remix) *
2. Elton John, Young Thug & Nicki Minaj – Always Love You
3. Surfaces feat. Elton John – Learn To Fly *
4. Elton John & Charlie Puth – After All
5. Rina Sawayama & Elton John – Chosen Family *
6. Gorillaz feat. Elton John & 6LACK – The Pink Phantom
7. Elton John & Years & Years – It's a sin (global reach mix) *
8. Miley Cyrus feat. WATT, Elton John, Yo-Yo Ma, Robert Trujillo & Chad Smith – Nothing Else Matters
9. Elton John & SG Lewis – Orbit
10. Elton John & Brandi Carlile – Simple Things
11. Jimmie Allen & Elton John – Beauty In The Bones
12. Lil Nas X feat. Elton John – One Of Me
13. Elton John & Eddie Vedder – E-Ticket
14. Elton John & Stevie Wonder – Finish Line
15. Elton John & Stevie Nicks – Stolen Car
16. Glen Campbell & Elton John – I’m Not Gonna Miss You
Eltons output over the past few years has been a mix of new and old:
His latest album of new music dates back five years; Wonderful Crazy Night, released in 2016.
Live from Moscow 1979 was released in 2020 and Regimental Sgt. Zippo recorded late 1967 and early1968 was released this summer.
