  • Description

    Billy Joel, live from The Dome Auditorium, Greenvale, New York May 21st 1977

    Homespun brings you the WLIR-FM broadcast of Billy Joel's concert from C.W. Post College in Brookville, Greenvale, New York. Performed on May 6th, 1977, it serves as an important signpost in his development and career. Transmitted shortly before the astronomical success of The Stranger, which would be released just four months after, propelling him onto the global stage and garnering critical acclaim. Joel previews two tracks from the album here, along with early classics. Included is arguably his most iconic song, and moniker, Piano Man. This broadcast documents his calibre and growing artistry as both a songwriter and performer. Found here in remastered audio we are proud to present this historical broadcast.
