Music legend Elton John wrapped up his Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour and retired from performing after more than 50 years. However, insiders have now claimed that the Candle in the wind singer has been working on a “top secret” new album that could be released later this year, reports Female First UK. 

A source told The Sun newspaper’s Bizarre column: “It’s all been very top secret but Elton is back in the studio working on a new album. Time frames are always movable but the fourth quarter has been pencilled in terms of a release date. He adores music and that will never change, but the desire to be as busy as he was has waned.”
