Introduction:
"Don't Shoot Me I'm Only the Piano Player" is the sixth studio album by British singer/songwriter Elton John. Elton's friend Groucho Marx jokingly pointed his index fingers at Elton John during a get together in California as if holding a pair of six-shooters. Elton John put up his hands and said, "Don't shoot me, I'm only the piano player," so naming the album. The album contained two top-ten U.S. pop singles, "Daniel" and "Crocodile Rock".
Achievements:
This was Elton's second straight No: 1 album in America and yielded his first No: 1 single in both the U.S. and Canada - "Crocodile Rock". "Daniel" was also a major hit from the album, giving him his second Canadian No: 1 single on the RPM Top Singles Chart and just missing the top slot south of the border, stalling at No: 2 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 and reaching No:5 in the U.K. It sold about 14 million copies worldwide.
Elton John Tickets are available at Sold Out Ticket Market on nominal rates.
