Opis

Elton John and iconic photographer Terry O'Neill worked together for many years, taking in excess of 5,000 photographs. From intimate backstage shots to huge stadium concerts, the photographs in this book represent the very best of this archive, with most of the images being shown here for the first time.

O'Neill has drawn on his personal relationship with Elton John to write the book's introduction and captions.

 

I'm so glad he was with us throughout the madness: in his evocative and stylish photos he captured those moments as no other photographer could.
