Billy Joel: Influences

Billy Joel: Influences

Billy Joel's eclecticism is no accident: the man has a list of influences longer than his 40-year career. Each of his albums is a Sgt. Pepper's-esque carousel ride through 20th century American pop. Fittingly, Dylan and McCartney kick this playlist off, making stops at doo-wop and Duke Ellington. Enjoy this tour through five decades of classics.
