| What a revelation! I was never a great Elton John fan even though I quite liked some of his songs but after listening to this SACD version of Honky chateau, I am a convert. This was a good SACD album to try as I have the standard CD version of it and the SACD version leaves it for dead, IMO. There is so much detail and dynamics that it's quite amazing, so good in fact that I kept on listening and listening to it. I can't recommend it highly enough!

Performance: Sonics: |
| And extremely good sounding disc. Even better even than Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. The piano sounds very full and luxurious. Great songs, too. The mix is faithful to the original LP.

Performance: Sonics (MC): |
| One of the disks I would use to show off SACD to my friends. Amazing sounds of the brass in the rear surrounds in "Honky Cat" worth the price of the disk alone. I love watching people's faces when the brass first comes in. You forget that this disc was recorded in the early 70s.
