"Billy Joel's last pop/rock album, and after the dip in quality of his last two records, Joel ends his songwriting career with his best album for well over a decade.

"My favorite album of 2017 so far. It sounds like they have so many influences from a lot of the artists that I listen to. Some of the songs on here are so raw, stripped down, and emotional, and then you'll have a HUGE political song. The blend of genres is perfect. The flow and progression of the..." [+] Reply
