Joel, Billy - The Nylon Curtain

NEW VINYL LP ON MOBILE FIDELITY 2014

180 GRAM VINYL NUMBERED LTD.

What may be Billy Joel's most satisfying album is also probably his weirdest. THE NYLON CURTAIN is loaded with Beatlesque vocal effects, claustrophobic arrangements and socially conscious songs about unemployment (the hit "Allentown"), Vietnam ("Goodnight Saigon," which opens with the sound of helicopter rotors) and sexual politics ("Laura"). This isn't the kind of album Joel's fans had come to expect, nor is it much like what Joel went on to do later. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billy_Joel
