EP 138 - Year In Review: 1992

1992 wasn’t a prolific year for Billy, nestled between the end of one of his longest tours supporting a monster hit album and releasing his final pop album the next year.  But, his decisions here would determine the next phase of his career. Throughout the year, he spent just as much time looking to the past as he did preparing for his future.  It was the year Billy began working on River Of Dreams while various record companies released his work from the late 60s with The Hassles and Attila. His only new releases were a trio of songs for movie soundtracks, each written before he became a musician, as Paul Simon inducted him into the Songwriters Hall of Fame.  These and other events, releases, and milestones found Billy spending 1992 stuck somewhere between an elder statesman of music and a brash kid still playing rock and roll. ------   Email us: ⁠⁠[e-mail]⁠⁠   Glass Houses - A Billy Joel Podcast on the web / social media: Website: ⁠⁠https://www.glasshousespod.com⁠⁠ Facebook: ⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/glasshousespodcast/⁠⁠ Instagram: ⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/glasshousespod/⁠⁠ Twitter / X: ⁠⁠https://x.com/glasshousespod⁠⁠  Discord: ⁠⁠https://discord.gg/6G6cMRFu7T⁠⁠ Youtube: ⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@glasshousespod⁠⁠   Support the podcast: Paypal: ⁠⁠https://paypal.me/glasshousespod⁠⁠ Venmo: @MGrosvenor   Produced by Michael Grosvenor & Jack Firneno for Glass Houses Media, LLC Learn more about your ad choices.
