I've put a fair amount of work into organizing my iTunes collection of music and I'd like to randomly chat it up a bit. My Random Album Reviews won't be timely or even hip. I'm actually quite lame and quintessentially not cool.
The first installment is Billy Joel's The Stranger.
Although Wikipedia could easily add a head shot of Joel on the fugly page, his music has always been a staple for me since junior high. Easily, the best and only great song off the album is She's Always a Woman. It's pure corn hits me square in the eyes; if I'm not careful, I'll even get a sniffle.
Decent tracks include Just the Way You Are and Only the Good Die Young. Unremarkable but fun and fluffy, great for blaring to scare off any encroaching hip-hop element in the vicinity. Honorable mentions include Movin' Out (Anthony's Song) and Scenes From an Italian Restaurant, both of which live tenuously on a thread in my iTunes.
If this album interests you, visit myFacebook iLike Library for a listen.
