The Fox

The Fox is the fifteenth studio album by British singer-songwriter Elton John, released in 1981. Unfortunately, it was one of Elton's poorest-selling albums in the United States, selling only about 300,000 copies. The track, "Elton's Song", was banned from radio play in some countries due to its content, which included references to homosexuality. The album was produced by John, Clive Franks and for the first time, Chris Thomas, who would produce many more albums with John through most of the 1980s and '90s. Five of the songs were recorded during the sessions for his previous album 21 at 33. All B-sides released around this time were also from those sessions.
