At the top for over three decades, Elton's career began as Reg Dwight pounding the piano in a Pinner pub, and perhaps reached its apotheosis with 'Goodbye England's Rose' at the funeral of his close friend, Diana, Princess of Wales. In between we've seen it all: the glittering costumes, the indestructible classics, the sky-high boots, the draining addictions, the failed marriage, the coming out. It's an epic, which requires the pen of a master storyteller to do it justice.
Philip Norman's 'Elton' was first published in 1991, to critical acclaim. Since then, there are many chapters of this extraordinary life - whose protagonist is part Liberace, part The Who, yet beloved by the Queen Mother - which have yet to be chronicled.
Now 'Sir Elton' is back in print, and of it Elton has said, "He's got me spot on!"
