Music reviews of Here and There
Music Review: Here, There and Everywhere
Rating: 5 Stars
Elton and company first put out the "contractual obligation" version to help fulfill recording requirements in 1976. "Here and There," pulled from a show in London and one in New York two years earlier, was just a single LP back then, though the songs included were pretty choice, even with limited side space available.
In the later 90s, the album's (and Elton's) original producer, Gus Dudgeon, remixed and expanded the album for CD, adding a ton of extra songs from both shows. Added were, among other things, the John Lennon tracks from New York that were sadly his last concert performances. On a more positive note, if these were to be the former Beatle's last stage recordings, they're at least a worthy part of Lennon's (and Elton's) great musical legacy on their sheer power and charisma alone. They certainly left an impression on Elton, who still cites that show as his greatest concert memory of all time.
As much a band album as a vehicle for Elton, all the musicians get superior treatment in the new mixes and were on fire during these shows, easy to see why they were picked for release. Some of the versions of Elton standbys are wonderful variations..."Honky Cat," "Love Song," both versions of "Take Me To The Pilot" and "Your Song," "Bad Side of The Moon" all take on a life of their own live.
Both discs have their own atmosphere - a little more showy on Disc 1 in London, a little more straight up rock 'n roll on Disc 2 in New York, but put them together and you get a great snaphshot of Elton's range, esp. during his mid-70s heyday.
