Did you know that in 1975, 2% of all records sold in the World were Elton John LPs? Do you care? Just think about it, there were a lot of people making albums then, so 2% of all sold is pretty good. One band that probably weren’t too far behind, even if they were still yet to hit stratospheric heights, were this lot.
At that time, bands did not expect albums and singles to chart immediately, it seems amazing by modern standards to reflect on the fact that their eponymously titled album only hit the No. 1 spot on the American Billboard chart a whole year after it was released, in 1976, and that the band needed to tour to sell potential hit singles such as Rhiannon and Landslide to the fans. Again, at the time, that seemed the only way.
Here they are then, almost at the peak of their powers, in their radio-friendly glory…
