An Innocent Man is the ninth album by American singer/songwriter Billy Joel, released in 1983 (see 1983 in music).
This album is Joel's tribute to the popular music from his teenage years. Throughout the album, he pays homage to a number of different popular American musical styles from the late 1950s and early 1960s, most notably doo-wop and soul music (see each track for specific homage).

Famous quotes containing the word innocent:
“Eccentricity is not, as dull people would have us believe, a form of madness. It is often a kind of innocent pride, and the man of genius and the aristocrat are frequently regarded as eccentrics because genius and aristocrat are entirely unafraid of and uninfluenced by the opinions and vagaries of the crowd.”
—Dame Edith Sitwell (1887–1964)
