Sir Elton , 74, said he enjoyed The Experience of being forced " out of his comfort zone" and working with unexpected collaborators.
" I realised there was something weirdly familiar about working like this, " He Said in a statement announcing The Album .
" At the start of my career, in the late '60s, I worked as a session musician. Working with different artists during lockdown reminded me of that.
" I'd come Full Circle : I was a session musician again. And it was still A Blast . "
