Bernie Taupin

Post by tim10cc » Thu May 12, 2016 2:18 pm

I am as many others are excited about the ACG album in the works.


I would love to see Bernie & AC together again (Minus the drugs) Elton John hasn't rocked out on albums for a while. I bet Bernie would have some great ideas for a ROCKING AC album!!!
The road to hell is littered with nice guys with good intentions.

They did a great job on from the inside. I think at that point he was the most scariest alice ever. Or at least the most disturbing. I wish he would bringthat alice back. Hes an actor he could act stoned lol

Based on what Alice's assistant Kyle said, the original members and Alice have only done a bit of writing together that may or may not make the album. My understanding is it really isn't much different than their contributions on W2MN.It may or may not happen, but I think some fans are setting themselves up for a fall.

as long as its not like acas where he spent ages waiting for the production team (thats what i remember him talking about anyway) and then we got another low bar entry. (still not as bad as dirt diamonds but its close!)
At least he has bob ezrin again now, so quality should be there, (his only low spot for alice has been lace and whiskey for my money) W2MN was a sterling release.
I live in hope of another classic, just no more lame Hollywood vampires, please!

i'd be interested in a bernie taupin but has he still got the chops? i know nothing of any recent output at all.

Alice and phil Collins would be interesting. Listen to phil do a song like mama frim when he was in genesis. They would work great.

I like what Alice and Bernie did together for From The Inside. I'd be more open to Alice and Bernie writing another album together over another Ezrin outing, because I think W2MN and the HV album are two of the dumbest things Alice has released. I would only rate W2MN higher than Trash, Constrictor, Hollywood Vampires, and Along Came A Spider. Those five albums are all void of any substance, and I have little hope that it will get turned around and the last three. I don't know if Bernie could make it better, but at this point, why not give it a shot?

As far as Elton and Bernie, they have gone back a bit to the 70s style on Elton's last 4 albums. Nowhere near as great as those early albums, but they have all had their moments.
