Say Goodbye To Hollywood

from Billy Joel A to Z

Today we begin the songs beginning with the letter "S" and we get to start with a biggie. Say Goodbye to Hollywood, the clear tribute to Ronnie Spector and The Ronettes song "Be My Baby", kicks off Billy Joel’s incredible fourth studio album bomb, Turnstiles.  It also kicks off the second side of the the live album, Songs in the Attic.  Ronnie Spector ended up covering the song herself and was a big hit in 1977 with the help of the E Street Band. Billy may say he hates Hollywood and L.A., but he certainly ran back quick when they offered him a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Who wouldn't but. . . .just sayin. Hosted on Acast.
