Quintessential. These are some the tracks that Howard Stern should have requested. 11/16/2010.

Re: Streetlife Serenade

How I miss the day when artists created real albums. This is my favorite Billy Joel album. From beginning to end it flows smoothly and every song is good. I love the two instrumental songs Root Beer Rag and Mexican Connection. Souviner is a great song with sweet lyrics. I also love how most songs on this album have a little country influence to them. I would love to go back in time, walk into a small smokey lounge to find Billy Joel on piano singing and playing this album.

I've always been a fan ,even though I didn't know Piano Man was yours for a week or two. (FM DJ's didn't talk too much-probably tokin' in studio)
Streelife Seranade really does paint a great picture of a neighborhood,and its' life.
Favorite ? Root Beer Rag; it's the first one I tried to play by memory years after taking lessons.
Remember when the Fan Newsletter was the Root Beer Rag? I do.

I Love This Album

This is a wonderful album that people don't really know about because there's not many big hits on it. I love the song "Souvenir." It is such a nice, calming song to listen to after a long day at work. "The Mexican Connection" and "Weekend Song" are two of my other favorites.
