GREAT SOUND AND SONGS You don't need to be a sound engineer to admit that the music in this album sounds TERRIFIC! I really enjoyed the songs and the interpretation. What calls the attention the most in this CD is its technical quality.
A juke-box musical which will delight Billy Joel's admirers and people who have gone through the 80's. It's far from the Andrew Lloyd Webber or the Rodgers & Hammerstein beat, but it is very enjoyable and great fun. The lyrics mean a lot and the music, most of the time, is really catchy. It contains at least three worldwide famous songs: Just The Way You Are, An Innocent Man and, of course, Movin'Out. It's one of those records that you want to listen more, much more than once. I highly recommend it.
Saw the show - love the CD!
The show wasn't what I expected, but it was wonderful and now I have the memories of it whenever I want!.
SO glad I bought it =]
Very happy with my purchase =]. I never got the chance to see this musical on Broadway, so I bought the the CD - I absolutely love Billy Joel, and really like the musical! The CD came in brand new condition.
Still Billy Joel to Me
It's amazing how well this music transitions and blends together. I still have to warm up to the guys voice a bit, but the music is awesome. There was also a couple of things that got me by surprise. We Didn't Start the Fire is really different, and shows just what his music can do. I'm a little disappointed that Only The Good Die Young didn't get more appreciation, but none the less it still rocks.
Awesome collection of music
I saw the show and it was one of the greatest show ever, highly entertaining, great collection of music, as you listen to each song, you can actually imagine the show being played over and over, 5 stars!.
