He was the son of a British military seargent and a homemaker, and he soon began taking piano lessons at the tender age of 4. His father despised of him listening to that "God forsaken Rock-N-Roll", but mother would regularly smuggle him Jerry Lee Lewis and Little Richard records. The marriage between his parents did not last long, but that did not slow down any kids named Reginald.
Reg won a scholarship to the Royal Academy of Music at age 11, but he continued his schooling until he was 15. Here, he started his first group called Bluesology. Bluesology only lasted him a year, but gave him the name that has stuck since; his stage name; Elton John which was taken from the names of Bluesology members "Long" John Baldry and Elton Dean.
