    side 1 of Class Houses is one of the best sides on any album anywhere!!!! I've been a fanatical Billy Joel fan for 35 years. And my favourite Billy Joel song comes from this album, the brilliant brilliant fantastic, ALL FOR LEYNA!!!!!!!!!!!!

      That was the side that got me into Billy. It was the first I heard, so obviously I'm biased but I'm watching these videos and this was literally the one comment I'd love to tell him. I'm glad its the very first comment!

    According to my parents, In May of 1980 when I was driven home from the hospital It’s Still Rock And Roll To Me was playing on the radio in the car and was the first song I ever heard.
    Saw you perform in 1990 in Kansas City Missouri.
    Can’t wait to see you March 2024 in Arlington TX! ❤

    This is great! laughed out loud with the clown hands!
    I LOVE stories about what the ideas were surrounding a classic album, interestingly I was enjoying side one of GH the other day and thinking, dude, Joel was on fire with his band back then, nonstop rockin' jams!
    Thanks Mr. Joel for sharing your stories, hope you will share more!

    THROUGH THE LONG NIGHT - really stands out as great songwriting, brilliantly arranged and recorded - this one really stands out for me - sure i love the hits but this hidden gem really shows Billy's genius - one of the most beautiful, heart felt recordings by anyone with a touch of melancholy.

    Haha! "..I got a rock in my hand, there's a trumpet over here, I'm leaning on a pillow here, I'm holding the turnstiles here, I gotta do something with my hands..." Hey, whatever works Billy! His album covers are the best anyway.

    Billy should have stuck with his old sound, it was good enough for concert arenas, imo.

      That explains why he’s been nominated multiple times for Grammy album of the year. Go figure.
