In celebration of Billy Joel’s 50th anniversary, the “Piano Man” has launched the “Billy Joel New York State Of Mind” Landmarks website — and the digital-only release of Places, the first in a series of thematic EP’s showcasing select tracks from across his career.
Fans can log on to the “Landmarks” website at https://nysom.billyjoel.com/ to explore an interactive map highlighting 50 special New York locations connected to Billy’s life and songs, “from Cold Spring Harbor to Madison Square Garden, from Sullivan Street to the Hudson River Line.”
The site includes song histories, listening/saving options, and more. Fans can offer up their own suggestions for the “New York State Of Mind” website, which could expand the map beyond its current 50 locations.
Places, the five-track EP showcases songs associated with New York locations on the interactive map: “New York State Of Mind,” “Movin’ Out (Anthony’s Song),” “Big Man On Mulberry Street,” “Everybody Loves You Now” and “Miami 2017 (Seen The Lights Go Out On Broadway).”
