Our Take
Billy Joel, the Piano Man himself, has compiled an essential collection of hits in this aptly named album, "The Essential." This two-disc set is like a musical time capsule, taking us on a journey through Joel's illustrious career. From the anthemic "Piano Man" to the soulful "Just the Way You Are," this album is a testament to Joel's songwriting prowess. Listening to "The Essential" is like taking a walk down memory lane, with each song evoking a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era. Joel's versatile voice and masterful piano playing shine through on tracks like "Uptown Girl" and "We Didn't Start the Fire." It's easy to see why he has become a household name in the world of music. But this album is not just a greatest hits compilation—it also includes some lesser-known gems that showcase Joel's range as an artist. Tracks like "She's Always a Woman" and "Scenes from an Italian Restaurant" remind us that Joel is not just a one-hit wonder, but a true musical genius. Overall, "The Essential" is a must-have for any Billy Joel fan, as well as for those looking to dive deeper into the catalog of this iconic singer-songwriter. So sit back, pour yourself a glass of red, and let Billy Joel serenade you with his timeless classics. Long live the Piano Man!
