If it doesn't have "Shipoopi" with Buddy Hackett, then I just don't care.

The appropriate chaser to Billy Joel is, of course, Ethel Merman.

^ The explanation is fairly simple. (You can't get no. No, no, no.)

I gotta get away...

Because in England, singles were not usually included on albums. The Beatles UK albums were the same.

They wanted people to buy the 45s?

Yes, in the UK singles and albums were perceived as two separate markets. Quora sez:

In the US, the expectation was that hit singles should be included on albums, but in the UK, the perception was different. I’ve generally heard this attributed to the comparative wealth of the two countries. In the US, people had enough money that they didn’t mind the idea of buying an album that duplicated songs they’d already bought on a single—they’d even perceive it as good to have the song in the context of an album. But British record buyers were more frugal, and wanted more value for their money. This also led to UK albums typically having 14 songs, while American albums of the era usually only had about 11.

Apparently this came out in 2010 and I completely missed it until last year. Finally received my CD in the mail this week.
