TIN PAN ALLEY: The Rise of Elton John

Focuses on two stars, one is Sir Elton John and his rise from jobbing songwriter to the breakthrough gigs at the LA Troubadour in 1970; the other is Tin Pan Alley itself. A world filled with publishers and songwriters who needed to sell their songs to survive. Elton John and Bernie Taupin found themselves in exactly this position before success came knocking. 16 pages of photos, some in color.
