Includes You May Be Right Its Still Rock and Roll to Me, Dont Ask Me Why
Elvis Costello long had a reputation for being the angry young man. With apologies to the former Declan McManus, he had nothing on Billy Joels Glass Houses. Fed up with inexcusable critical backlash and believing hed still not been regarded as a serious artist, Joel ratcheted up the angst on the 1980 set that, oh, by the way, happened to sell another seven-million-plus copies and top the Billboard charts. Revenge is sweet.
Glass Houses is mastered from the original master tapes and made available on fully transparent hybrid SACD. Honing in on producer Phil Ramones radio-tailored albeit looser, straightforward production, this edition opens up the previously veiled soundstages, spotlights the clean yet raucous arrangements, and decongests the imaging so that every note comes to the fore. Thanks to DSD technology and meticulous remastering, Joels urgency and temperament have never sounded so vibrant.
