Billy Joel - Turnstiles
Billy Joelâs Turnstiles is a triumphant return to his New York roots, blending rich storytelling with powerful musicianship.
Originally released in 1976, this fourth studio album finds Joel at his most confident, crafting anthems that feel both personal and timeless. Pressed here on standard weight black vinyl, it includes the quintessential classic "New York State of Mind" â a smoky, piano-driven love letter to the Big Apple.
But this album is so much more than just its most famous track. Opening with the energetic âSay Goodbye to Hollywood,â Joel sets the tone for an album that explores departure, return, and reinvention. âSummer, Highland Fallsâ brings poetic melancholy, while âAll You Wanna Do Is Danceâ and âPrelude/Angry Young Manâ showcase his playful side with rhythmic flair and theatrical flair.
Turnstiles captures a transitional moment in Joelâs career â a move back from L.A. to NYC and a shift toward more creative control. He produced the album himself and assembled a new backing band, laying the groundwork for the massive success that would follow.
Whether youâre discovering Billy Joelâs deep cuts or revisiting a cornerstone of â70s pop-rock, this vinyl edition is a must-have. Clean production, heartfelt lyrics, and infectious hooks make Turnstiles a dynamic listen from start to finish.
