This album tells the story of how Bernie and I met and what we went through in the early days, finding our way in the music business and learning who we were as artists.
Half a century on, it’s amazing to look back on how far we’ve both come. I’m so proud of the way the record sounds, and it’s probably one of my favourite albums I’ve ever done.
Available now on 2LP Vinyl, 2CD, digital and streaming

Crazy to think it was two years ago that we walked into the studio - great friends but with no idea what might come of it when working all together. Twenty days later, after moments both challenging and inspiring, we came out with Who Believes In Angels? A piece of work we couldn’t be prouder of, and a true testament to the love and friendship we share.

✨🎩 Celebrating 50 Years of Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy ✨🤠
Half a century since it topped charts around the world, this autobiographical album, telling the story of Bernie and me finding our voice in London, is being reissued as a 50th Anniversary Edition, out October 24.
Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy was the first album I’d ever made that was autobiographical, and it was the first time we’d gone into the studio with all the songs already written. We rehearsed it as a band, then went in and cut it more or less live. The band were at their absolute peak and you can hear it on the record. I think it’s the best thing we ever did. The songs were strong, Bernie’s lyrics were brilliant, and the atmosphere at Caribou was perfect. Seeing it go to Number One faster than anything I’d ever released felt like vindication, like the culmination of everything Bernie and I had fought for back in those bedsits in London.
As Bernie says, “Of all our recorded output Captain Fantastic has a very special place in my heart. Obviously, it was emotionally rewarding as it chronicled a very special time in our lives. I’m not by nature one to wallow in nostalgia but hearing this album once again 50 years on reminds me of how very deep our bond of friendship and creativity ran.”
The 50th anniversary edition will be available on 2LP, 2CD, Blu-Ray & Digital, plus Limited 1LP ‘Live at Midsummer Music, Wembley Stadium 1975’ released on vinyl for the first time.
2LP + 2CD contains the original album, previously unreleased session demos and Captain Fantastic Live 2005 performances. Booklets include a newly compiled scrapbook, sleeve notes and the 2LP includes Elton’s never-before-seen 1974 diary entries.
