Elton John’s tribute to the ‘Happy Days’ of the 50s, ‘Crocodile Rock’ is loved as one of his bubbly, nostalgia filled hits. The lyrics, penned by his long-time writing partner Bernie Taupin harken back to a simpler time of Malt shops, fast cars and a jukebox that never quits. This #1 hit was recorded at Château d’Hérouville in France as part of the ‘Don’t Shoot Me I’m The Piano Player’ sessions in 1972.
