Description
‘Honky Cat’ is the opening cut from Elton John’s 1972 album ‘Honky Chateau’. The album was recorded in the legendary Château d’Hérouville, just outside of Paris which was the site of such classic recordings from Pink Floyd, Jethro Tull, Cat Stevens, David Bowie, The Bee Gees and Fleetwood Mack. ‘Honky Cat’ features many distinct stylistic points in addition to Elton John’s powerhouse piano, including the use of Banjo and strong horn lines. A fun take on the illusions of urban life and a great dance number!
