Good audio recording from Elton John's solo piano tour, Syracuse, New York 2000 April 18. I'm uploading the entire concert. This is track #14 - I Guess That's Why They Call It the Blues. The song comes from Elton's 1983 album "Too Low for Zero" and was also a top ten single, Elton's first since 1976. The lyric began as a letter Bernie Taupin wrote to his second wife, model Toni Russo. It was the last song recorded for the album and an exhausted Elton brought in Davey Johnstone to help him write it.
