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.

I didnt know that! So cool! Listening to 52nd Street right now. So beautiful!

@leonoel: Liberty DeVitto, the drummer on those albums, is one of my primary influences as a drummer. That run of work, Stranger/52nd Street/Glass Houses....killer, in my opinion.

@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!
