Elton John vs. The Moody Blues

Back in the 1970s, there was a time that Elton John was putting out some
very complex music which featured a lot of organs and orchestral
arrangements. Around the same time and a bit earlier, The Moody Blues were
in full blast with their greatest hits coming out between the end of the
1960s and the early 1970s.

How did you compare The Moody Blues anthems to Elton John's greatest ballads
and anthems? Did you ever think that these were some of the greatest songs
in rock history? Do they still move you? Was there an element of progressive
rock to the late 1960s/early 1970s era of Elton John?

How do you compare treading in doggy-doo with your new shoes to someone
vomiting over your new suit?

Did Rick Wakeman play with Elton John's organ on one of his albums?

Well, everyone knows that Elton was a big fan of Billie Jean King's.
They used to exchange soiled panties. Pete Sampras was more of a heavy
metal guy. And Chris Evert was a big glam rock fan. Martina
Navratilova loved the accordian and good old fashioned polka music.

This is the tennis NG, isn't it?

The fucking retard you responded to was trying to be cute and never checked
the headers or even who he/she was responding too. Ever since the internet
was opened to the Special Ed classes it was ruined.
