There aren't too many artists who can rattle off six consecutive #1 albums. Elton John did (7 if you count his Greatest Hits album released in 1974), beginning with Honky Chateau in 1972 through Rock of the Westies in 1975. The best of those are Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy and Goodbye Yellow Brick Road.

1974: Elton John's Greatest Hits (#1) One good way to get his greatest hits is to buy this one, Volume II below and Volume 3. That would be cheating yourself out of some great music, especially from the early to mid-70's. Hopefully there will eventually be a boxed set.
