One of the most known musicians of Piano Rock and a reknowned songwriter with his partner Bernie Taupin. Elton John started his career by being a touring backing band for a lot of R&B musicians, though his main career as Elton John started when he answered an ad for a songwriter that Bernie Taupin had also answered.
