Probably the best greatest hits CD ever
No - that's gotta be "Greatest Hits I & II." But this looks okay. Couple of weird picks but a wall of huge classics. I've been rocking "Say Goodbye To Hollywood" more and more these last few years but I think it's gotta be "Movin' Out" or "Italian Restaurant."

Scenes from an Italian Restaurant.but which compilation is this? some versions of said song on some comps are truncated. i have a live version where he hits those first 5 piano notes and the next 30 seconds are all but obscured by crowd hysteria. always raises a smile.

I sincerly doubt "Mr. Cacciatore's" is in that image, Eazy....

He wouldn't be, he works across from the medical centre, so he wouldn't be in the frame of a photo taken facing the medical centre.

Went with "She's Always a Woman". Prefer the Piano Man comp.

Movin Out is magisterial. So I voted for it.

I woulda said "Piano Man" until recently when I heard it twice in a day and got kinda sick of it. So I'm saying "She's Always A Woman" instead. Evidently I have a weakness for those 3/4 minor-key piano ballads.
