Title: Not a bad song on this album
Product review: This is one of those rare albums where every song on it I would consider either great or near-great. Standouts are of course the title track, as well as "Captain Jack" and "If I Only Had The Words"(which at some future date will be remade into a #1 hit by Mariah Carey or like diva). This was gritty Joel, angry Joel, the Joel who would continue to make great records thru 1982's "The Nylon Curtain". It was at this point that Joel began his transformation from rocker to safe-as-milk, lightweight pop crooner, a la Rod Stewart and Elton John. But despite the fact that it might not be "hip" to listen to Joel today, "Piano Man" stands out as one of 1974's truly great rock albums.
