Hank Bordowitz`s unauthorized biography of singer Billy Joel is crammed with juicy, salacious details of Joel`s alcohol and drug abuse, his sometimes scandalous sex life, and his often stormy relationships with friends and fellow musicians. Born in the Bronx in 1949, Joel had his first hit with Piano Man in 1973, but didn`t really hit the big time until 1977, when his album THE STRANGER became a bestseller. Bordowitz`s is the first serious attempt at chronicling Joel`s rocky road to stardom, and, despite the hindrance of being denied access to the singer and most of his closest friends, he manages to construct a believable and often sympathetic portrait of a driven musician struggling vainly against personal demons. Aided by years of rehab, Joel`s present-day persona is somewhat lower-key than the furniture polish-abusing figure of yore. Bordowitz`s well-constructed tale captures the essence of the man, as well as chronicling the wreckage he left in his wake.
