Madman Across The Water was largely written after Elton had made his initial foray to America, offering the opportunity for lyricist Bernie Taupin to witness first-hand the landscapes and people he'd only seen on a screen or on the page. Recorded in 1971, it was a foundation stone of what was to become a dazzlingly prolific decade for the global-icon-in-waiting. Spawning the hits " Tiny Dancer" and "Levon," Madman Across The Water was Elton's fourth studio album, released only two years after his debut.
