There is a fearless honesty in these songs and in Joel's voice. His honesty is mature and filled with humility. Listening to his tunes is like watching your favorite scene in a movie or reading a descriptive passage in a book that paints such a vivid picture,that you find yourself no longer here but there.

The intricate voices of the instruments weaving through there separate thoughtful journeys can all be heard clearly in these recordings. Most remarkable is that his voice sounds more youthful than on his earlier CD's! The weight of life colors most voices over time. Somehow Joel is able to escape that in his new CD.
A masterpiece!
