Elton John - Tumbleweed Connection - Used VG+
$11.99
Settle into the country-tinged storytelling and piano-led sweep of Elton John's Tumbleweed Connection. From the earthy drive of “Ballad of a Well-Known Gun” and “Country Comfort” to the intimate “Love Song” and expansive closer “Burn Down the Mission,” this LP rewards a full side-by-side listen.
This used VG+ copy is listed as a 1973 U.S. MCA Records reissue, Pinckneyville pressing, in a gatefold sleeve. Catalog number MCA-2014 distinguishes this edition from the earlier UNI release, making it a useful addition for collectors exploring Elton John's early catalog.
