Duets with rappers, old melodies in dance arrangements and a collective cover on Metallica. All this can be heard on Elton John\’s new album The Lockdown Sessions.
According to the musician, The Lockdown Sessions took shape unexpectedly for him. When the Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour was interrupted due to the pand and the artist was in self-isolation, he began to participate as a guest vocalist on tracks by various musicians. So, for example, the song Pink Phantom appeared at the request of Damon Albarn and was included in the Gorillaz Song Machine, Season One: Strange z, One of Me was recently published on the debut disc Lil Nas X, and Nothing Else Matters was created as a group homage to Metallica. , celebrating the anniversary of her \»black\» album, and was featured on the cover collection The Metallica Blacklist. At first, the Chosen Family existed only in the solo performance of Rina Sawayama, and after the composition won international recognition, Sir Elton decided to make a duet with a rising star (for this, according to him, Rina had to spend two weeks in quarantine).
As a result, so much material has accumulated that it became clear: a full-fledged album is being obtained. Elton supplemented the existing recordings with duets, some of which were specially composed, while others turned out to be cover versions of old compositions. As a result, there were 16 tracks, and apart from Elton\’s voice or piano playing only one thing unites them: the maximum stylistic distance from each other.
