1977 single by Elton John
"The Goaldiggers Song" is a charity single by English musician Elton John, released in 1977. The song is written for the Goaldigger`s charity to provide playing fields in under-privileged areas. The single never charted anywhere, as it was a limited charity release-only 500 copies were pressed, approximately half of which were signed by John.
Leer másThe song is written, composed and performed solely by Elton John; the song features only his piano and multi-tracked vocals. The actual disc does not contain writing or production credits, and since the release of the single, it hasn`t appeared on any album or been reissued in any formats and considered as a collector`s item.[1]
The only well-known performance of this song happens at his performance at the Wembley Empire Pool on 3 November 1977.[2]
Background
At the time in 1977, Elton was living reclused in London; the only time he would go out was to go see his football team Watford F.C. play. The single was available for a cost of five UK pounds by mail-order only and featured John and a number of other British celebrities including Jimmy Hill and Eric Morecambe in conversation on the B-side. The tapes were destroyed after the pressing, so no other official copies of the recording exist.
