I really enjoyed the two part Triumph series and I want to try and do another two part playlist starting with the early works of an artist. This time I want to showcase an artist that this site doesn't hear much from.
BILLY JOEL
For Part 1 we'll take a look at his early work, prior to his stardom.
PLAYLIST --> http://snack.to/auml65s3
So I picked some mellower tunes this week, but man they are soo sooo good! I hope you enjoyed this as much as I did putting it together!

This was another splendid playlist, the first song I've never heard but the rest I have. Still have Piano Man on cassette, mainly because of that song and Captain Jack. Don't think I'll ever pick up Cold Spring Harbor, just don't like the cover!
Streetlife Serenade has been mostly "meh" with me, but the song you picked is ok. As for Turnstiles, this is when he started to rock a little bit more. Rjhog mentioned a couple other songs off this album, but Angry Youn Man is killer stuff, especially with him pounding on the peeano (see what I did?).
Little known fact, but Frankie Goes To Hollywood "borrowed" the word "pleasure dome" from the song You're My Home (oh yes, spell the title correctly, Scott! Jeez, what are you in second grade????). Now you're all in the know.
shore..yew pute da tyme inn y wood eye knot right sum nise stuf?
