Wolfgang’s Vault: Elton John Men’s Retro T-Shirt
Date: Oct 19, 1975
Venue: Oakland Coliseum Arena (Oakland, CA)
Price:$30.00
Elton John was America’s darling in 1975. June saw the introduction of his newly-formed Elton John band, rock-and-rollers who played “… At a chug rather than a race,” and in August he celebrated the fifth anniversary of his American debut with two benefit concerts in L.A. and a special anniversary tour book. His picture was frequently on the cover of American magazines that queried his looks, his loves and his finances in articles ranging from racy to sober and back again, and he embarked on the Rock of the Westies U.S. tour. The performer’s concert costumes and eyewear were already signature, and this autumn concert t-shirt reflects them in the artwork.
