"Too Low for Zero" is the seventeenth studio album and greatest hit by British singer, songwriter Elton John, released in 1983. The album was produced by Chris Thomas and recorded at Air Studios in Montserrat and Sunset Sound Recorders in Hollywood. The original LP issue of the album featured a die-cut cover with a special inner sleeve. The four shapes shown on the cover were cut out, with the colours showing through the holes. For the first time since Empty Sky, Elton plays all the keyboards on this album and he would do the same on Breaking Hearts. The album includes "I'm Still Standing" and "I Guess That's Why They Call It the Blues", the latter of which featured Stevie Wonder on harmonica and reached No: 4 in the US, giving John his biggest hit there since "Little Jeannie". His albums continued to sell, but of the six released in the latter half of the 1980s, only Reg Strikes Back placed in the top 20 in the United States.
