Billy Joel - Vocals, Piano & Keyboard

For decades Billy Joel has been visiting colleges and theaters performing lectures/master classes. This one was recorded in London in 1993 and is among the best lecture recordings in existence...sound quality-wise. Most of them are poor audience recordings, but this one is a crisp soundboard recording. He answers questions about his music, his career and the music business. He also performs a few songs, mainly from River of Dreams, the album he was promoting at the time.
