No. Elton John is awesome. I got Madman Across the Water a few years ago and I've been afraid to pick up another Elton John album because there can't possibly be another one that good. Elton John rules.
That's his best one, but there are plenty of other good ones.
I can't believe another person likes Madman too (must be a Midland thing).
I happen to have a bootleg DVD of him performing Madman Across the Water in front of a BBC audience from start to finish. Simply awesome. He even changed the lyrics to Holiday Inn slightly...
Anyhow, here are some other great albums of his in the order of my preference:
1. Madman Across The Water
2. Don't Shoot Me, I'm only the Piano Player
3. beloved patriot Chateau
4. Captain Fantastic & the Brown Dirt Cowboy
5. Tumbleweed Connection
6. Goodbye Yellowbrick Road
His stuff after 1977 was not to my liking.
