Download or read book Me written by Elton John and published by St. Martin's Griffin. This book was released on 2020-10-13 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER In his first and only official autobiography, music icon Elton John reveals the truth about his extraordinary life, from his rollercoaster lifestyle as shown in the film Rocketman, to becoming a living legend. Christened Reginald Dwight, he was a shy boy with Buddy Holly glasses who grew up in the London suburb of Pinner and dreamed of becoming a pop star. By the age of twenty-three he was performing his first gig in America, facing an astonished audience in his bright yellow dungarees, a star-spangled T-shirt, and boots with wings. Elton John had arrived and the music world would never be the same again. His life has been full of drama, from the early rejection of his work with song-writing partner Bernie Taupin to spinning out of control as a chart-topping superstar; from half-heartedly trying to drown himself in his LA swimming pool to disco-dancing with Princess Diana and Queen Elizabeth; from friendships with John Lennon, Freddie Mercury, and George Michael to setting up his AIDS Foundation to conquering Broadway with Aida, The Lion King, and Billy Elliot the Musical. All the while Elton was hiding a drug addiction that would grip him for over a decade. In Me, Elton also writes powerfully about getting clean and changing his life, about finding love with David Furnish and becoming a father. In a voice that is warm, humble, and open, this is Elton on his music and his relationships, his passions and his mistakes. This is a story that will stay with you by a living legend.

Download or read book The Elton John Story written by Mark Bego and published by Aurum. This book was released on 2009 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a career spanning four decades, Elton John has proved he can do it all in the world of popular music. He is a true legend. Yet until now, no book published has successfully captured his passion and outlandishness or the truth behind his complex private life. Previous books have handled his life with kid gloves, almost making him into a tasteful 21st century George Gershwin. In reality Elton's life more closely parallels Oscar Wilde. He has been wild, glitzy, boozy, bawdy and unconventional. And it is his big personality and grand gestures, no less that his tremendous talent that mesmerises his millions of fans. Mark Bego draws on interviews with many people who know or worked with Elton to create a unique insight into the life and career of the singer/songwriter. Including: Patti LaBelle, with whom Elton was very friendly in the 1970s; Mary Wilson of The Supremes, Monkee Micky Dolenz, Martha Reeves and Rita Coolidge, all long-term friends; and Long John Baldry and Tony King - both gay comrades of Elton before he hit the big time. The Elton John Story is the book that every Elton John fan has been waiting for. It is filled with all of the addictions, the self-doubts, bad toupees, affairs and scandals - but also with the triumphant later years, the coming-to-terms with his sexuality and the establishment of a happy and healthy private life. Mark Bego is the author of 50 bestselling books on rock n' roll and show business, including two New York Times bestsellers, a Los Angeles Times bestseller and a Chicago Tribune bestseller. Five of his books have sold either a million or half a million copies. He is widely acknowledged as one of the best biographers in the rock and pop music field.
