Audio CD Description

It's one of the cruel ironies of music today that Billy Joel has been relegated to a kind of adult-contemporary hell, where his legacy is measured by soft-rock staples such as "Just the Way You Are," "Piano Man," and "New York State of Mind." To be sure, well-crafted ballads are a part of his legacy, but they're hardly the whole story, as this collection of his early and mid-period hits amply demonstrates. From the unbridled biographical boasting of "The Entertainer" and the ambitious storytelling of "Scenes from an Italian Restaurant" to the careening abandon of "Only the Good Die Young" and the thoughtful social commentary of "Allentown," Joel was as complete an artist as the last three decades have produced.

Play it again, Sam...I mean Billy

Another "WEASEL OF ROME" review 4 my fellow gamers looking for some music. P.S. I'm using my mom's name on her computer.


awesome!!!!!

I LOVE BILLY JOEL!!!! HE ROCKS!!!! IF I COULD GIVE THIS ALBUM A MILLION STARS I WOULD!!!! I LOVE THAT SONG UPTOWN GIRL! Oh, that Uptown Girl! And her crazy whitebread world! You rule, Uptown Girl! I also love Scenes from an Italian Restaurant! I especially love listening to it on the way to the multiplex after having eaten at Olive Garden!!! I love Olive Garden! I love multiplexes, too, especially the ones that play all the commercials before HArry Potter comes on! I love Harry Potter! I love commercials!!!! You know what? One time, "Scenes from an Italian Restaurant" was playing when I WAS IN AN OLIVE GARDEN!!! Isn't that crazy! Cuz Olive Garden is a genuine Italian restaurant! My girlfriend thought it was crazy, too! We don't date anymore! She dumped me for some other guy!!! And so I burned all my Bill Joel albums!!!! But! I'm dating now and am buying my Billy Joel albums all over again. I'm starting with this one! I can't wait to hear Piano Man! You're the tops, BJ! :)


Hits From The Best Part Of Billy Joel's Career

Billy Joel's "Greatest Hits Vol. 1-2" showcases what I believe to be the best part of his career. It is during this time that he released such classics as "Piano Man", "Scenes From An Italian Restaurant", "Uptown Girl", "It's Still Rock and Roll To Me", "Big Shot", and "You May Be Right", in addition to others. Billy Joel is one of the greatest musicians and songwriters ever and this compilation is a good representation of some of his finest work.
