Billy Joel US Promo Reissue Sealed LP Piano man '76 Columbia PC32544 Pop Rock


US Sealed Promo Reissue LP released in 1976 on Columbia Records. Cat: PC32544. Features a Promo sticker on cover.
Embittered by legal disputes with his label and an endless tour to support a debut that was dead in the water, Billy Joel hunkered down in his adopted hometown of Los Angeles, spending six months as a lounge singer at a club. He didn't abandon his dreams he continued to write songs, including "Piano Man," a fictionalized account of his weeks as a lounge singer. Through a combination of touring and constant hustling, he landed a contract with Columbia and recorded his second album in 1973. Clearly inspired by Elton John's Tumbleweed Connection, not only musically but lyrically, as well as James Taylor, Joel expands the vision and sound of Cold Spring Harbor, abandoning introspective numbers (apart from "You're My Home," a love letter to his wife) for character sketches and epics. Even the title track, a breakthrough hit based on his weeks as a saloon singer, focuses on the colorful patrons, not the singer.

 Tracks : Travellin' prayer/ Piano man/ Ain't no crime/ You're my home/ The ballad of billy the Kid/ Worse comes to worst/ Stop in Nevada/ If only I had the words (To tell you)/ Somewhere along the line/ Captain Jack.
