  4. Como ocurriera (y ocurre) con numerosos artistas, #BillyJoel decidió homenajear a los ídolos de su adolescencia con un disco. El resultado sería #AnInnocentMan, publicado el 8 de agosto de 1983. Pero no estamos hablando de versiones de quienes lo supieron influir como hizo, por ejemplo, John Lennon en Rock and Roll; sino que se tratan de los géneros (básicamente doo wop y el sonido Motown tan popular en los primeros 60`) que sonaban durante su juventud y los interpreta con composiciones propias y referencias a quienes son honrados.

  5. Anybody else feel like they can enjoy a wider variety of music if played on #vinyl rather than from a streaming service? I’d never seek out a #BillyJoel album on Apple Music, but today I threw on my #AnInnocentMan record just because I had it handed down to me. I’ve spun through it twice.
