Elton John is an English singer-songwriter, composer, and pianist. Born on March 25, 1947 in Pinner, Middlesex, he has been one of the dominant forces in rock and popular music, particularly during the 1970s. With over 200 million records sold, Elton John is considered one of the most successful artists of all time.
Throughout his career, Elton John has achieved remarkable success with more than 50 Top 40 hits including seven consecutive No.1 U.S. albums, as well as a total of 59 Top 40 singles. He has also garnered numerous chart-topping achievements such as having four No.2 hits and nine No.1 hits.
In addition to his commercial success, Elton John's talent has been recognized with five Grammy awards and two Academy Awards. His influence on popular music cannot be overstated; he has had a profound impact on the industry and contributed to the enduring popularity of incorporating piano into rock and roll.
In recognition of his exceptional songwriting abilities, Elton John was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1992. Furthermore, his contributions to music were honored when he was inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame in 1994 as a performer.

The One was Elton John’s first studio album of the 90s, and saw him capitalising on the enormous success of his first major CD retrospective, The Very Best Of, and his first solo UK No 1, Sacrifice in 1990. It was also his first album free from the addictions that had sometimes made his music seem secondary in the later 80s. As a result, it became his best-selling studio album since Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy in 1975. With guest appearances from Kiki Dee, Eric Clapton and David Gilmour, the album reached No 2 in the UK charts and remained in the listings for 18 weeks, thanks in part to the Top 10 single The One.

For this new remaster, the original running order, which was fitted onto two sides of a single album has been expanded out to an audiophile 180gm double set in a brand new gatefold sleeve.
