RSD Exclusive on Black Vinyl

In May 1977, Elton John took the stage at London’s iconic Rainbow Theatre with Ray Cooper for a six-show residency. These performances were the first Elton-and-Ray only shows and featured the first live debuts of tracks “Roy Rogers,” “Cage The Songbird,” “Idol” and “I Feel Like A Bullet (In The Gun Of Robert Ford).” Curated by John himself, the tracklist features his favorite and most memorable songs from that night. Aside from “I Feel Like A Bullet (In The Gun Of Robert Ford),” which appeared on the 1990 To Be Continued… CD set, the rest of this concert has never been officially released. Pressed on 180-gram black vinyl, mastered at Lurssen Mastering and cut at the iconic Abbey Road Studios exclusively for RSD 2025.
