    Episode 1468 - Bernie Taupin

    Bernie Taupin is a songwriter responsible for many of the most beloved songs ever recorded.

Bernie and Marc talk about the origins of his more than 50-years-long partnership with Elton John, his friendship with Alice Cooper, the influence of The Band, and the timelessness of his songs.
