			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Pre-prefrontal-cortex Billy Joel, by the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prefrontal_cortex">description:</a></p>
<blockquote><p>Yes, that is Billy Joel, wearing fur pelts and posing with Small in a meat locker. And while such packaging might seem at best laughable, you ain’t experienced nuthin’ ’til you’ve heard the thing.</p>
<p>“Wonder Woman” kicks off the record, and we should be able to tell we’re in trouble, right from the get-go. A swirl of amplified wah-wah noise greets us, like a haze of pot smoke from an open van door. Out come the fur pelt-wearin’ Long Island Huns—Jon Small flailing around, beating anything he can find with his manly drum-clubs, and Joel coaxing noises from his organ rig, just like Jimi Hendrix, only without the sexiness or melodic intent. “Wonder Woman with your skin so fair!” Joel shouts. “Wonder Woman with your long, red hair! You have the velvet touch! You have what I want so much! My love is burnin’ fire! My need is my desire!”</p></blockquote>
<p>It gets a lot worse from there. The prefrontal cortex, by the way, is <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prefrontal_cortex">&#8220;implicated in planning complex cognitive behaviors, personality expression, decision making and moderating correct social behavior.[citation needed] The basic activity of this brain region is considered to be orchestration of thoughts and actions in accordance with internal goals.&#8221;</a> Goals such as creating a hit record and correct social behavior such as &#8230; none of what&#8217;s described in that album. The prosecution rests.</p>
<p>I also didn&#8217;t know that Billy Joel&#8217;s first wife was poached from his bandmate. Apparently he never really was any more normal than other Hollyweirds. Sigh.</p>
<p>H/t Daddyman.</p>
