Elton John tribute act: Performing at Elton's mum's 90th the 'ultimate accolade'
An Elton John tribute act says performing at Elton John's mum's 90th birthday party was the "ultimate accolade".
Paul Bacon, who performs as 'Ultimate Elton', said Shelia Farebrother had "a fantastic time and all the guests entered into the spirit of it".
"I understand her son wasn't available. She wanted to hear her son's music which she loves, so she came through to us" said Bacon.
"Kiki Dee was a guest at the party - we sang 'Don't Go Breaking My Heart' together. That was a lot of fun".
