''Leather Jackets'' is an Album by Elton John , who as of 2006 declared it his least favorite of all his albums, while lyricist Bernie Taupin believes '' The Big Picture '' deserves that honor.

Roger Taylor and John Deacon of Queen play drums and bass guitar respectively on the track Angeline. Became his "first" album to not create any top twenty, or any hits in that matter.

It was also around the time when he officially Came Out openly all the way as a Homosexual after renouncing his Bisexuality .
