Elton John is an English singer-songwriter, composer, and pianist. Born on March 25, 1947 in Pinner, Middlesex, he has been one of the dominant forces in rock and popular music, particularly during the 1970s. With over 200 million records sold, Elton John is considered one of the most successful artists of all time.
Throughout his career, Elton John has achieved remarkable success with more than 50 Top 40 hits including seven consecutive No.1 U.S. albums, as well as a total of 59 Top 40 singles. He has also garnered numerous chart-topping achievements such as having four No.2 hits and nine No.1 hits.
In addition to his commercial success, Elton John's talent has been recognized with five Grammy awards and two Academy Awards. His influence on popular music cannot be overstated; he has had a profound impact on the industry and contributed to the enduring popularity of incorporating piano into rock and roll.
In recognition of his exceptional songwriting abilities, Elton John was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1992. Furthermore, his contributions to music were honored when he was inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame in 1994 as a performer.

Regimental Sgt Zippo is the legendary ‘album that never was’ for Elton John. Signed to DJM as an artist in early 1968, he cut 12 tracks at DJM studios in London’s New Oxford Street, for a debut album. It is unclear as to why the album was never released, but a running order was allotted.

As part of the excavation of material for the Jewel Box, the original running order was located: after the success of its limited release in mono for Record Store Day in 2021, EMI are now offering an industry-wide release in stereo, mixed at Abbey Road with the customary care of Elton’s catalogue team. In addition to the previous release, this new LP edition comes with a printed inner bag with full lyrics. The CD edition contains both stereo and mono mixes.
