Missing albums?

[edit]

There are two Billy Joel re-releases that included 2nd discs with previously unreleased live concerts. I would add them to this page, but am not sure the best way to do this and don't want to enter lower quality content than all of the great content already here:

First disc:

Second disc:

  • Piano Man 2 CD Legacy Edition
  • https://www.amazon.com/Piano-Man-2-CD-Legacy/dp/B005FNGAD8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1322600118&sr=8-1
  • The new package includes a bonus CD of an entire previously unreleased 1972 live radio concert (predating Joel's Columbia signing by a year), a crucial stepping-stone in his career. Early support for Joel came from Philadelphia, specifically the top-rated FM station WMMR, which programmed a live concert series taped in the intimate Sigma Sound Studios. Billy recorded a concert for the series on April 15, 1972. Three of the 12 songs that he performed were destined for inclusion on his next album (more than a year and a half away) Piano Man: "Travelin Prayer," the Aaron Copland-esque "The Ballad Of Billy The Kid," and the notorious "Captain Jack." Tapes of the 'MMR concert made the rounds, with "Captain Jack" turning into an "underground" FM favorite. Some of those listeners happened to work for Columbia Records, and soon the groundwork was being laid for Billy Joel to come to New York and audition for the label. The rest, of course, is history but without the Philadelphia radio concert, that history might have taken a different direction indeed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Randyhortonchi (talk • contribs) 02:33, 2 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
