In May 1977, Elton John took the stage at London’s iconic Rainbow Theatre with percussion legend Ray Cooper for a six-show residency. These performances were the first of 233 Elton-and-Ray only shows that would follow and featured the live debut of deep cuts; “Roy Rogers”, “Cage The Songbird”, “Idol” and “I Feel Like A Bullet (In The Gun Of Robert Ford)”. Initially released on a limited vinyl run for Record Store Day, the album is now available on CD for the first time. The CD edition includes a brand-new bonus track "Goodbye" plus the original twelve-song tracklist personally curated by Elton and additional liner notes.
