With a few hits, including especially the ballad "Honesty" and "my Life" among the best known, with his stride-piano style and boogie those octaves alernés subtle harmonies as well integrated into the songs, there are also other pearls like "52nd Street" kind of groovy-funky Jazz nickname, "Zanzibar" that shows all facets of Billy Joel in the fusion of styles. atteingant new heights here in the genre, from a sort of progressive Latin funk followed by a completely passsage jazz, a walking bass topped with a manic trumpet, or "Stiletto" with a famous groove, piano and dementia a well marked voice style that varies relative to other securities, are for me the most interesting titles for one, others a little less but still written with a certain talent that often far exceed our production of sweetened aujourd 'hui over 30 years later, and it is mainly the sound quality of recording that has improved, and yet in some respects, because the analog sound production by Phil Ramone this time really still retains its character as its heat. Curious as some scenes even remember some crazy excesses of some Gino Vannelli @ Co.
An essential disc really good for music and not only for the production of Billy Joel.
