well, i always wanted to buy it... then i found it... and bought it. I've only heard Piano Mana and We Didn't Start the fire but the other songs own, too.

Billy Joel isn't a very good pianist 😉

<-------- Grew up on Long Island where BJ is from too.

Him and Harry Chapin were awesome and then Harry got run over by an 18 wheeler on the Long Island Expressway in his volkswagon bug 🙁

Billy peaked in 1980 and then got too high, drugged up and weird. Oh well.

We Didn't Start the Fire was on Storm Front CD in the late 80s. Piano Man came out in the early 70s.

Hello, and welcome to 1973.

Please don your obligatory "Make love, not war" T-Shirt, and flee to Hoserville to dodge the draft.

That's the "best of" CD, not the original Piano Man CD, I think.

My favorite song of his is Allentown but it didn't make it on to the Best Of.

Welcome to 1973.

 

[Linflas]

Piano Man and The Stranger are his 2 best albums IMHO.

Whew, the hoops you must have had to jump thru to get it, kudos! 😛

Its a great cd...all starts to sound the same to me if I listen to him too much, but he's a true artist.
