Elton John will release a new album, The Diving Board, on 16 September 2013.

Touted as a ‘back to basics’ return to the piano-bass-drums sound of his early years, The Diving Board is produced by T-Bone Burnett, with all the songs co-written with John’s long-time collaborator Bernie Taupin.

The Diving Board will be available in a 15-track edition on CD, vinyl and download; a 19-track super deluxe version on CD and download, adding the extra studio track Candlelit Bedroom and three songs performed live earlier this year at Capitol Studios; and a Super Deluxe box set featuring the extended CD, gatefold vinyl, book and bonus DVD.

  2. In the USA via Target the Deluxe Edition has 21 tracks frustratingly two of them are exclusive to this particular release. The tracks being ‘Gaugin Gone Hollywood’ and ‘5th Avenue’. If you go to the Amazon website ‘5th Avenue’ is available to download free, it’s a cracker.

  3. I find it fascinating/appalling that the “super deluxe” version of this album, which amazon and ej.com are selling for approx. $160, does NOT include two tracks which will adorn Target’s 21-track version of this album (for only $14.99). Talk about screwing over the hard-core fans!
