Piano Man - Joel, Billy
What most people consider to be Billy Joel's first album is really his second. Piano Man is his signature tune, but there's some other all time classics here. Captain Jack is known, and I'm also fond of the Ballad of Billy the Kid. Travelin' Prayer, Ain't No Crime, it keeps going for me on this one. Some of the tunes on here borderline on country in their feel.
I was thinking back to this album and to why I like it so much, and I guess from a personal standpoint and a musical standpoint, it harkens back to a time when things were a lot simpler, and it just feels very enjoyable.
