Free Music Review: Billy's swirl of energy provides the REAL storm front !!!
Hit: 5 Stars
Billy Joel remains one of the greatest artists of our time. This album entitled Storm Front stands the test of time as one of Billy's better pop albums and it still sells. The songs are very well done.
The track set begins with "That's Not Her Style." After a folksy start, the piano comes in perfectly and the number quickly begins to rock hard. Billy Joel sings with all his heart and soul; and the chord changes in the melody make the number even better. Billy sings of a woman he knows well as his soul mate even though she is misunderstood by the public. Great! "We Didn't Start The Fire" picks up the tempo; "We Didn't Start The Fire" works well. This number generated the attention it deserved although Billy Joel sings the lyrics at a pace that's practically frantic and manic. Joel tries to show how fast time flies with his rock ballad "We Didn't Start The Fire." The backup chorus works well, too.
"I Go To Extremes" rocks hard; and I think it is the highlight of this album. Billy Joel sings this to perfection; his voice never sounded better. Billy sings of a man who always goes to extremes with the philosophy that "it's all or nothing at all." One reviewer points out that this is a ballad about manic depression--and they are right. Love the guitars on "I Go To Extremes!" "Storm Front" continues to rock hard although the tempo is definitely slower than other numbers on this CD. The guitars, brass and drums work well to carry the melody; and Billy sings this like the pro that he is! The backup chorus adds to "Storm Front" very nicely.
"Leningrad" has a beautiful piano arrangement and Billy sings this heartfelt number very beautifully. "When In Rome" also rocks hard from the word go and Billy never misses a beat! The backup vocals and the drums enhance "When In Rome" very well. Awesome! The final track, entitled "And So It Goes," is rather pensive and the slow tempo works wonders for this instant classic. Billy sings "And So It Goes" with a great piano accompaniment; and when the other musicians play the number takes flight!
The liner notes provide the lyrics for each song; and the artwork reflects good judgment.
Billy Joel will never be forgotten. His fine artistry is just too good for people to leave his recordings gathering dust on some warehouse shelf. I highly recommend this CD for fans of Billy Joel; and people who want a fine Billy Joel album would do well to get this CD.
Enjoy!
