Elton John

In 2015, when Elton John delivered his iconic performance of 'Rocket Man' at the Outside Lands Festival in San Francisco, he was fresh off the heels of his album 'Wonderful Crazy Night,' which released in February 2016. This was a period marked by both reflection and reinvention, as Elton celebrated over four decades in music. Interestingly, in the prelude to this live recording, John had just wrapped up a stunning return to an active touring schedule after a brief hiatus. The San Francisco show not only showcased his timeless hits but also his dynamic stage presence—at 68 years old, he proved age is just a number. It’s noteworthy that 'Rocket Man,' one of his most beloved songs, transcends generations, hinting at the lasting legacy of both Elton's artistry and the relevance of his music in contemporary culture.
