{"product_id":"billy-joel-turnstiles-subway-token-gold-vinyl","title":"Billy Joel - Turnstiles (Subway Token Gold Vinyl) | National Album Day 2026","description":"\u003cp\u003eTurnstiles is Billy Joel's fourth studio album, originally released in May 1976. Written during his return to New York, the record includes the enduring “New York State Of Mind” alongside “Say Goodbye To Hollywood”, “Summer, Highland Falls” and the dramatic “Miami 2017 (Seen The Lights Go Out On Broadway)”. This National Album Day 2026 edition is pressed on Subway Token Gold vinyl.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe album marked an important step in Joel's development as a songwriter and bandleader. Its eight songs balance character studies, reflections on place and ambitious piano-led rock arrangements. New York runs through the record as both a real location and an emotional anchor, giving Turnstiles a clear sense of movement, departure and homecoming. The compact sequence also demonstrates the range that would define Joel's later work, moving naturally between ballads, pop hooks and longer narrative pieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcross the album, Billy Joel creates a complete listening sequence rather than a simple collection of singles. The opening stretch establishes the record's character, while later tracks broaden its mood and bring the programme to a considered close. Key selections including Say Goodbye To Hollywood, Summer, Highland Falls, All You Wanna Do Is Dance show the range of the set, and the original running order has been retained across this edition. It is an album suited to front-to-back listening, with the side breaks preserving the pacing of the vinyl format. That continuity is part of the record's lasting appeal: familiar highlights sit within a wider programme whose contrasts and transitions become clearer when the album is heard in full.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor a complete album experience, this limited National Album Day 2026 edition is pressed on subway token gold vinyl and released by Sony Music on 17 October 2026. The package contains one LP and the full original album tracklist. It is designed for listeners replacing a well-played copy, collectors looking for a distinctive colour pressing, and anyone discovering Turnstiles on vinyl for the first time.
