"Caribou" is the 8th studio album by Elton John released in 1974. It was his 4th chart-topping album in the United States and his 3rd in the United Kingdom. The album contains the singles, "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me", which reached #16 in the UK Singles Chart and #2 in the US, and "The Bitch Is Back", which reached #15 in the UK and #4 in the US. Both these singles reached #1 in Canada on the RPM 100 national Top Singles Chart (as did the album itself). In the US the album was certified Gold in July 1974 and was certified Platinum and 2x Platinum in March 1993 by the RIAA. The album was nominated for the Grammy Award for Album of the Year at the 17th Annual Grammy Awards. The album was named for the Caribou Ranch recording studio in Colorado, where part of the album was recorded.

~Wikipedia

Glitzy showmanship is what fuels Caribou, a less successful album than its early-'70s predecessors. Though the shiny surface of the album is alluring, only a few tracks rank among John's best work. "The Bitch Is Back" is one of his best hard rock cuts and "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me" is one of his classic ballads, but the album tracks tend to be ridiculous filler on the order of "Solar Prestige a Gammon" or competent genre exercises like "You're So Static." There are a couple of exceptions "Pinky" is a fine ballad and "Dixie Lily" is an endearing stab at country but on the whole, Caribou is a disappointment.
