Billy Joel: The Life and Times of an Angry Young Man is a look at the superstar's entire career including his troubled youth as a gang member; the controversy surrounding his first hit Captain Jack ; his legal problems; his storied marriage with Christie Brinkley; and his continued artistic frustration.

But because I had hit singles that were ballads I became known as a balladeer. I've always resented it.
