Funny, that's what reminded me what a hot song Rosalinda's eyes is/was. Judd Apatow put some great music on that show. I was also impressed when the drummer freak (Nick Andapolous) told his friends to listen to Joe Jackson because he has a great bass player. I think I made that exact comment back in the early 80's to my heavy metal friends. I missed your Freaks and Geeks comment at the end.

I've heard a few of your tunes and I really like what I hear. Hearing you describe 52nd St reminded me of hearing it the first time too. Rosalinda's eyes has always been a favorite of mine..."James" is a great tune too. 70's and early 80's Joel was a great era. Your post articulated my thoughts on this topic. Nice.

I too have a love/hate thing with him. My theory about that horrible period of his was that he was trying to be Bruce Springsteen. Climbing on top of the speakers in concert and that kind of stuff. I did see him last year in Nashville and I thought it was a great show. Great story Bill. I too have a love/hate thing with him.
