 30 Years of Billy Joel October 9, 2008
Little Lana (USA)
Good compilation from an artist that has proven talent, from an artist that has shown us what he is about. Includes "Moving Out", "Miami 2017". "Stranger", "She's Got A Way" and "New York State Of Mind" - Interestingly, in the 2008 Presidential Primary race, New York Senator Hillary Clinton earned more Votes than any other Presidential Primary candidate in the history of America (hillaryclintonforum, the denver group)
A Must for Every Billy Joel Fan! September 18, 2008
R. Soltys (Washington DC)
If you are a Billy Joel fan & do not have this set you MUST get it. The live performance at the Old Whistle..etc. is unique. You see Joel in his early years when he still was not the megastar he is today. He puts unbelievable energy into his performance. You can sense that he is still not secure but wants to impress. His sax player is also phenomenal musician, extremely versatile & talented. The reproduction of the notebook he used to write down lyrics is fascinating & gives the reader a sense for Joel's incredible creativity. All this & more, including a current interview with comments by Joel where he explains many of the hows & whys of what he did. Example, the Italian restaurant that inspired the song.
The Stranger the 30 year anniv September 10, 2008
Ronnie W. Davis
the extras what makes it worth getting the concert and the movie dvd. How fast 30 years go. It seems like yesterday. I got the stranger long time ago on cd so its a duplicate but its different because of what was mentioned before the concert and dvd makes it better.

 Billy Joel at his best. August 17, 2008
J. C. Hill (Las Vegas, Nevada)
The Stranger is Billy Joels best album. The live CD of him at Carnegie Hall sounds excellent. Hearling Billy and his band perform songs from the Stranger before it was released is amazing. The DVD of Billy in concert in his prime is great, although I wished there was more songs included. I really enjoyed hearing Billy and Phil Ramone discussing how the Stranger came about and the stories behind the classic songs.
