Billy Joel's 1982 release THE NYLON CURTAIN is one of his classic albums. The single off the record, "Pressure," signified the dawn of the Music Television age with its very hypnotic and surreal video that played 24 hours a day and provided the social commentary of the 1980s; a decade of excess consumption and information overload. And several tracks off the record resonate the plight of the working class hero who somewhere along the line meets obstacles while attempting to live the American Dream or doing what was expected, such as "Allentown" and "Good Night Saigon."
But melodically, Joel may have had John Lennon and the Beatles on his mind while he was composing the very Beatlesesque tracks, "Laura," "Surprises," and "Scandinavian Skies." Undoubtedly, Joel reflects on Lennon's passing and pays homage to his musical heroes. The song,"Room of our Own," is a bouncy tune with its bluesy and Jim Croce-like rhythm, "She's Right on Time," another song that was accompanied with a video, and "Where's the Orchestra," concludes the record.
THE NYLON CURTAIN is indeed one of his finest records. The album has a timeless quality no matter how many times it is played. It is highly recommended for any Joel fan or anyone who enjoys exceptional songwriting.
