Review - :
Rarely has a greatest-hits collection been as effective as {$Elton John}'s first compilation, {^Greatest Hits}. Released at the end of 1974, after {^Goodbye Yellow Brick Road} and {^Caribou} had effectively established him as a superstar, {^Greatest Hits} is exactly what it says it is -- it features every one of his Top Ten singles: ({&"Your Song,"} {&"Rocket Man,"} {&"Honky Cat,"} {&"Crocodile Rock"} {&"Daniel"} {&"Goodbye Yellow Brick Road"} {&"Bennie and the Jets"} {&"Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me,"}) plus the number 12-slot's {&"Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting,"} and radio- and concert -- favorites {&"Border Song,"} and {&"Candle in the Wind."} Despite the exclusion of a couple of lesser hits from this era, most notably {&"Levon,"} and {&"Tiny Dancer;"} {^Greatest Hits} is a nearly flawless collection; offering a perfect introduction to {$Elton John} and providing casual fans with almost all the hits they need.
