In his own inimitable fashion, Billy Joel has crafted some of the catchiest pop hits of the '80s and '90s, and most of
them--17, to be exact--are on this disc. The jaunty, nostalgic Keeping the Faith opens things up, and we cruise right
down with Billy through the pop-soul of A Matter of Trust, the brash, rocking I Go to Extremes and All About Soul
(remixed here to good effect). Joel has grown over the course of his long career, and you can trace his maturity as an
artist through these later songs. The tone is a bit darker, a bit edgier than on his earlier tunes. This is an artist
who has always been about making pop music, but he's also lived and learned:You gotta get tough/but that ain't
enough/it's all about soul. Fans will probably agree, and will enjoy this collection immensely.
