re: Billy Joel "Cold Spring Harbor"
Folks, if you can find an early press of that LP on the "Family" label, it is quite interesting to hear because it's mastered too fast. Joel's vocals on that track are actually up a full step. I actually this mistake benefitted the album -- that track then takes on a more McCartney feel. I think it's a great song, so Joel's voice sounding smoother and higher sounds better to me. Of course, my prejudices are showing. ;)
