Much like my copy of The Stranger, this is an excellent sounding press with just some classic Billy Joel genius songwriting. I wouldn't skip a track. In my opinion, the time period between Turnstiles and this album featured Joel at his compositional and creative prime. And while I would likely gravitate more toward The Stranger than Glass Houses, it would be by very small margins.
My favorite Billy Joel album of all time and full of hits.
