52nd Street

Posted on February 5, 2011 By Doriano No Comments on 52nd Street

I love Billy Joel but mostly his stuff prior to 1980’s Glass Houses which was good but clearly the beginning of a different era for his music. Billy’s last great album was “52nd Street” from 1978. Just checkout the way it begins with three masterpieces:

Big Shot, Honesty and then My Life. What a 1, 2, 3 punch, huh?
Checkout the following three rare music videos filmed for these songs. I especially liked My Life which shows a young Billy and the band on the streets of New York City circa 1978 when Reggie Jackson and the Yankees ruled the world.
