"Chartbusters Go Pop! 20 Legendary Covers from 1969/70 as Sung by Elton John" is an album of cover versions of hit singles.

These were taken from the time prior to Elton John's first success as a solo performer and were used on budget-priced compilations of hit songs by nameless 'soundalike' performers under such brand names as "Top of The Pops" and" Hot Hits" often on the Music For Pleasure label.

These compilations were extremely cheap and sold in vast quantities in the years before compilations featuring the original artists were on sale from such labels as K-Tel.On this particular album some of the tracks do not sound like Elton because he is trying to replicate the sound of the original artist as best he could.

This album is really only of curiosity value and not really a proper Elton John album as such.
