Could someone please tell me what album 'Allentown' by Billy Joel is on,
and perhaps comment on it's other cuts?
Thank you.

The album with "allentown" is "The Nylon Curtin," on Columbia
records (and tapes).  Contents:
	Allentown
	Laura
	Pressure
	Goodnight Saigon
	She's Right on Time
	A Room of Our Own
	Surprises
	Scandanavian Skies
	Where's the Orchestra?

I like the album quite a bit.  "Goodnight Saigon" is a very powerful
song, and the video version is (to me) very moving; the first
time I saw it was also the first time I heard the song and
it moved me to tears.  But then, I'm a little strange.

"pressure" and "A Room of our Own" are really good songs.
The video for "pressure" is really clever and interesting too.

I like Billy Joel, and this is another excellent album.
