John can’t always send his music soaring the way it used to, but its spirit and ambition have finally come back home.

An album of quality that nobody thought could have happened.

All Music
No, Songs From the West Coast won't make you forget Tumbleweed Connection, but it often recalls those peaks, which, frankly, is enough.

Not counting two soundtrack albums and a live release, 2001’s “Songs from the West Coast” is the first formal Elton John studio album of the 21st century.

From The West Coast was the album I was hoping Elton John still had in him. And low and behold, he did.

Half Sugar Plum Fairy and half pop Queen Mum, Elton John is back.

Rock NYC
His voice is really strong, and the sound is Americana, it can be too slow but I prefer it to, say, Tumbleweed Connection.
