Hookfoot made an incredible backup band for Elton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some might consider the closer on Abbey Road to be Her Majesty... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members gismo recording Posted November 4, 2019 Members Share Posted November 4, 2019 The Beatles did it three times with "Tomorrow Never Knows", "A Day in the Life", and "Her Majesty". "Won't Get Fooled Again", "Brain Damage/Eclipse" (Eclipse was already mentioned but I consider these two to be a single song). "Are You Experienced", "Brothers in Arms" (even though it's not the best song on the album it's the perfect song to end with), "I Am a Rock", "You Can't Always Get What You Want". Glad I thought of this in time to edit. "Moving in Stereo" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Zooey Posted November 5, 2019 Members Share Posted November 5, 2019 2 hours ago, gismo recording said: But the album closes with "Her Majesty" That's more like a hidden track and not part of the sequencing of the album. I wouldn't consider "Endless Nameless" to be the last track on Nirvana's Nevermind or "Disgustipated" to be the last track on Tool's "Undertow" for the same reason. But if you do consider Her Majesty to be the closing track of Abbey Road, then maybe the endless loop ("never could be any other way") is the final track of Sgt. Pepper's instead of Day in the Life.
