Stephen Thomas Erlewine put it best when he said that it's "the closest Joel ever got a pure rock album. Going from tracks on The Stranger and even 52nd Street to "You May Be Right" is certainly awkward, and left many feeling unfavorable towards the shift. Drums and guitars seem to be the most prominent instruments, only overshadowed when Joel blesses the microphone. And though his singing isn't done with nearly as much passion, this still proves to be one of the Glass Houses' best qualities
