Empty Sky is the debut studio album by British singer-songwriter Elton John, released in the United Kingdom on 6 June 1969. Although imported UK copies of the album were available in the United States, Empty Sky was not issued in the US until January 1975 (on MCA Records), with different cover art, well after John's fame had been established internationally.
