About this album

Storm Front is a sharp, commercially potent late-period Billy Joel album that pairs polished pop-rock with some of his most durable songwriting. Released in 1989, it marked a return to a harder-edged sound after the more reflective tone of The Bridge, with production by Foreigner’s Mick Jones and a mix built for radio and arenas. The album generated major hits including We Didn’t Start the Fire and I Go to Extremes, while The Downeaster “Alexa” added a vivid portrait of working life on Long Island. It became one of Joel’s biggest-selling late-era releases and helped keep his run of chart success going into the 1990s.
