 He made headlines this fall for calling paparazzi “vile pigs” and accusing Madonna of lip-syncing. But the real news is that sober Sir Elton is back in musical form. His latest, recorded in his home base of Atlanta, features a southern feel reminiscent of Tumbleweed Connection. Songs like the country-flavored “Porch Light in Tupelo” and “Turn the Lights Out When You Leave” and the tender love ballad “My Elusive Drug” rank among his best in years. While he still has his drippy moments, this is mostly vintage Elton.
