Studio Soundboard Recordings

Valuable studio recordings of 'Beared and Bear Band', which had been registered in 69, before Elton John debuted as a singer-songwriter! At this point in time he is still playing the cover of the hit pops of the time without thorough vocals and playing the piano, but this recording is a valuable excavated sound source that has been stored without being officially released. It is a collector’s item that has attracted attention as a 60’s rare sound source that can be said to be the origin of Elton John.
In early 1969, Elton John (then known by his given name Reg Dwight) and friends formed a band known as The Bread And Beer band. The group recorded a single and an album in Feb. 1969, which was produced by Chris Thomas at the legendary EMI Studios at Abbey Road. The single was released in the UK only, in Feb. of '69. The album was planned for June of 1969, but cancelled, and the band put out on their own label in a handmade sleeve. -savethevinyl.org
