Introduction:
"17-11-70", US title 11-17-70, is a live album by British singer, songwriter Elton John, released in 1971. The recording was taken from a live radio broadcast on 17 November 1970, hence the album's title. The recording was originally popular among bootleggers which, according to Gus Dudgeon, eventually prompted the record label to release it as an album[1]. It has been said that the release by an eastern bootlegger of the whole 60-minute aircast rather than the 40 minutes selected by Dick James Music significantly cut into the US sales of the live album. Nonetheless, it become the fourth of John's records to simultaneously land in the Top 100, making him the first act to do so since The Beatles. John has stated in several interviews that he believes that this recording is his best live performance.
Tracks:
The original album included only six of the songs; a seventh, "Amoreena," appeared as a bonus track on the album's 1996 CD reissue. The other six performances remain officially unreleased: "I Need You to Turn To," "Your Song," "Country Comfort," "Border Song," "Indian Sunset," and "My Father's Gun."
Achievements:
In 1971, Elton John's 17-11-70 Album hit UK Album Charts at No: 20 and in 1971, it topped on Billboard US Pop Albums at No: 11.
Elton John Tickets are available at Sold Out Ticket Market on nominal rates.
