- RELEASE NOTES -

Although it's missing a few important (not to mention big)
hits, Greatest Hits, Vols. 1 & 2 is an excellent
retrospective of the first half of Billy Joel's career.
Beginning with "Piano Man," and the first disc runs through
a number of early songs before arriving at the hit-making
days of the late '70s; some of these songs, including
"Captain Jack" and "New York State of Mind," weren't
strictly hits, but were popular numbers within his stage
show and became radio hits. Once the songs from The Stranger
arrive half-way through the first disc, there's no stopping
the hits (although "Scenes from an Italian Restaurant," an
album track from The Stranger, manages its way onto the
collection). In fact, over the next disc and a half, there's
so many hits, it's inevitable that some are left off ù to be
specific, "Honesty," "Sometimes a Fantasy," "An Innocent
Man," "Leave a Tender Moment," and "Keeping the Faith"
aren't included. But all the other hits ù including "Just
the Way You Are," "Only the Good Die Young," "My Life," "You
May Be Right," "It's Still Rock and Roll to Me," "Don't Ask
Me Why," "Allentown," "Tell Her About It" and "Uptown Girl,"
among many others ù are present and accounted for, as are
two new songs ("You're Only Human (Second Wind)," "The Night
Is Still Young") that became hits as well. In short,
Greatest Hits, Vols. 1 & 2 does its job perfectly,
encapsulating exactly why Billy Joel was one of the most
popular singer/songwriters of the late '70s and early '80s.

With more than 6000 releases a year, RNS is by far the
largest, longest-standing, and most successful group on the
MP3 scene.  Boasting the top rippers, sites, and traders
to be found anywhere, RNS is untouched in terms of both
quality and quantity of releases.  Year in and year out,
the biggest releases in the music world are released first
and only by RNS.  RNS is interested in more than just the big
hits, however; we pride ourselves in remaining on the cutting
edge of music from every genre, whether it be hip-hop, R+B,
house, punk, jazz, rock, or classical.
