I think that EJ's younger voice was more 'natural' and less produced to what came later. He also sounded a lot freer, and expressive - he became too 'grown-up' and serious sounding in his approach by the 80's. I also find it entertaining how he put a kind of American twist to his pronunciation in some early tracks - plus his earlier music was more adventurous. I'm not his biggest fan, but no thorough music collection (regardless of genre preference) is complete without some Elton. And I love that 17-11-70 Live album !! Great entertainment and borderline Piano-Prog !!

His early voice without a doubt. It was unique, fit the music well. Is this his 70's voice vs. the voice he has today? Because his voice is pretty awful these days. He had a sort-of 'youthfulness' to his voice, which is certainly gone now. Like Roger Hodgson in Supertramp, but his voice is still brilliant. He hasn't lost a thing.

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road (title track ) is my favourite vocal preformance of him and Indian Sunset.

70s voice, if only because his best material was recorded with that. I would probably be a bit more forgiving of his later voice if he had been able to make that transition more successfully.  
He looks at this world and wants it all... so he strikes, like Thunderball!
