i agree that the quality of a lot of his albums after the late 1970s was lacking, just checked my collection to see what i have of Elton after that period:
1983 too low for zero
1984 breaking hearts
1992 sleeping with the past
2001 songs from the west coast
thats it, i like all those albums. 'sacrifice'/'healing hands' double 'a' side single from 1992 was Eltons first Uk No.1 single, credited to him , that is, of course he had 'dont go breaking my heart' with Kiki Dee in the 1970s but that was credited as a duet, not a solo single.
on comparrision of the UK,US and Australian charts over his career, Elton John has been more popular in Australia than either the UK or USA both on the singles and album charts
