NOTE: I agreed to promote the new album before Elton John announced that he will perform a concert in Moscow. Many JMG readers strongly denounced that decision and I don't disagree, but I'm hoping that Elton will use that concert appearance to speak against Russia's anti-gay laws. He does have a famous track record for saying exactly what is on his mind.
