Edited one year agoA fun album in his catalog that is beautifully produced. This is a nice pressing and the price is right. Recommended.

Might be my favorite Joel record. This pressing definitely does it justice. Some sibilance but nothing horrible. -
This album got me really wanting more after each song on the cassette. Not my cassette but my step-grandpa's. Me and my grandma were going through his cassettes and he came in,freaked out about it. In the end my family sat in his garage to listen to this great stuff. Was a good time with my grandparents,brothers and mom. I hate love songs but Billy makes them good to listen to.
