Sir Elton John has topped the chart with his first number one album since 1990.

The 65-year-old musician, who has had six previous chart-topping albums, took the top spot with Good Morning To The Night, a collaboration with Australian duo Pnau.

The album, which sees Nick Littlemore and Peter Mayes re-imagine Sir Elton's 1970s hits as dance anthems, is his first chart-topper since he released The Very Best Of Elton John in 1990.

Sir Elton signed the duo after listening to their third album, the self-titled Pnau, which was released in 2007.

His last number one single was when Tupac Shakur sampled his 1971 hit Indian Sunset for Ghetto Gospel in 2005.

Sir Elton's Australian collaboration replaces Newton Faulkner, whose album Write It On Your Skin crashed 10 places.
