Billy Joel hit #1 on the Billboard 200 Album chart with River of Dreams, his 12th studio album and his final pop/rock record.
The album, with a cover painted by Joel’s then-wife Christie Brinkley, was Billy’s fourth #1 and spent three weeks on top of the chart.
The album's title track went on to become a top-five hit, Joel's last on the Billboard Hot 100. The record also featured "Lullabye (Goodnight, My Angel)," which he wrote as a tribute to his daughter Alexa Ray Joel.
