    In the end, Jewel Box is a lot to sift through, but ultimately it’s well worth the effort. Go through the couch cushions and save up some coin. Elton’s jewels provide a worthy cache indeed.

    A feast for the committed follower. [Jan 2021, p.98]

    Jewel Box does have a bit of a scattershot feeling to it, but the title itself implies that it's a place where rarities and gems are collected. That's exactly what this set provides: some cuts are diamonds and some are zirconium, but they all have a bit of sparkle.

    Offering gems, misfires and revelations, Elton: Jewel Box is an absorbing opening of the vaults.

    Attempts several tasks at once - and pretty much delivers on all of them. [Jan 2021, p.47]

    Jewel Box goes out of its way to be a very different, sometimes maddening beast. Its eight discs include a substantial chunk of unheard early material, like those Zippo tunes, but they sit alongside an even bigger batch of songs that have already been released in one form or another, either on albums or singles. Jewel Box doesn’t just clean out the closet but the whole house.

    Apesar de ser imensamente grande, ele copilou suas grandes canções e não tem como isso sair ruim.
