If you were an Elton fan in the 70s, chances are you never heard this song

For a decade or so, if ever. Because it was recorded for Tumbleweed Junction, but was left off the original release.

So those of us who bought that record in its 1st 5 or so pressings never bought a version of the album that contained it.

But it's been on the record since (IIRC) 86 or there abouts.

So the folks who bought the record since then think this song has always been there - It's a Mandela effect situation that actually has a real world explanation.
