This deluxe edition offers 2 CDs of the remastered original album as well as a never-before-released June 3, 2007 Carnegie Hall show. The DVD includes live promo clips, a 30 minute documentary featuring new interviews with Billy and producer Phil Ramone, plus Billy's March 14, 1978 performance on the BBC's Old Grey Whistle Test. Also included are new liner notes by Rolling Stone senior editor Dave Fricke, plus a reproduction for the Carnegie Hall poster, and a facsimile of Billy's own lyric notebook.

He's known to many as an inoffensive pop balladeer, but at the arguable peak of his career in the late '70s, Billy Joel released his darkest, most emotionally charged album. THE STRANGER abandons the grandstanding and broad melodic sweep of Joel's earlier records for a more intimate, introspective sound, effectively communicating Joel's ruminations on the perils of life and love. "Movin' Out" is something of an existentialist anthem, chronicling the way people's dreams are often irreparably crushed. The ominous-sounding title tune examines the many guises with which lovers disguise themselves in their attempts to entrap and deceive each other. "Only the Good Die Young" is hedonism at it's most iconoclastic. Even "She's Always a Woman," ostensibly a romantic piano ballad, is full of thorny, less-than-complimentary observations about its subject. Joel's emotional honesty would never be this clear-eyed and unabashed again.

Ranked #67 in Rolling Stone's "500 Greatest Albums Of All Time" - "…The real pleasure here is the specificity of the lyrics in the rock songs located in New York…"

Personnel: Billy Joel (vocals, piano, Wurlitzer piano, keyboards, synthesizer); Howie Emerson (guitars); Steve Khan (acoustic 6-string guitar, acoustic 12-string guitar, electric guitar); Richie Cannata (flute, clarinet, soprano saxophone, tenor saxophone, organ); Doug Stegmeyer (bass guitar); Liberty DeVitto (drums) and others…
