Author and rock journalist Gillian Gaar joins Michael Brandvold and Jay Gilbert on the Music Biz Weekly to talk about her new book, ELTON JOHN @ 75\. The book is a very different take on the rock biography.

Key studio albums are featured, but Gaar delves deeper to reveal the events that helped chart the course of Elton’s career. It adds up to a unique presentation of Elton’s career arc, from his first steps as a solo artist to the breakthrough album Goodbye Yellow Brick Road to his flamboyant stage presence, and beyond.

Every page features stunning concert and candid offstage photography. There are also images of gig posters, 7-inch picture sleeves, and more: a gatefold Elton John timeline, a previously unpublished gatefold artwork, an 8×10-inch glossy print, and a pullout poster.
