twas our first waltz as man and wife, when Mrs. diggler and I got hitched some 19 years ago.

Billy Joel is sometimes overlooked these days, but he is and was responsible for some of the greatest lyrics of all time.

Billy Joel is a great songwriter.
Has been for a loooong time !

That song was a monster back in the day. It has a cheesy rep, but everyone on that track is killing it. The place where that was recorded is now a high-end restaurant.

@uncalled4: Man! Nice to hear that! Imma guitarist myself, without band experience though. I dig every Billy Joel album, its just astonishing, how one person can produce music on such a genius level album after album. Whats his saxophonists name?

@leonoel: On "Just The Way You Are"? That was the late, great Phil Woods. Billy also worked with Richie Cannata and Mark Rivera in later years.

I mean Mark Rivera! He such a lively guy, a pleasure watching him on stage. Such a talented fellow, much feeling!
