Brandi Carlile & Elton John - An Evening with Elton John & Brandi Carlile, Palladium Theatre, London, Britain, 3-26-2025

I have to give kudos to Elton John for not resting on his many laurels despite being 78 years old as I write this in 2025. This year, he has a duet album with Brandi Carlile, called "Who Believes in Angels?" All the songs on it were jointly written by Carlile, John, John's songwriting partner Bernie Taupin, and the album's producer Andrew Watt. It's a pretty solid album in my opinion, and it's gotten good reviews. To promote the album, John and Carlile put on a concert which was broadcast on TV, which I'm posting here. 

This is a good compliment to that new album, because only four of the songs are from the album (tracks 3, 7, 13, and 15), while the others are the best known songs from John's and Carlile's earlier albums. More specifically, there are five covers of classic John songs and one Carlile song ("The Joke"), plus there's a cover of the country classic "Crazy." Carlile has been a huge fan of John's music for her whole career, so I'm sure she relished the opportunity to sing his songs with the man himself.

The music here is unreleased. The sound quality is excellent. 

This album is 51 minutes long.
