Hi everyone! Happy 2022 to y'all! For first time in YouTube a complete version without speed issues and the complete songs: For years, this show has been well known among Billy Joel fans, not only for its vocal quality, but for its extensive repertoire and notable moments on stage. Originally it was thought that all the footage was from a single night, but thanks to different sources that assure it, we can deduce that they are two nights together. Unfortunately, there's no Audience Recording, no Alternative Soundboard to corroborate this, but it is assumed that around This Night the third show begins. The video was sourced by Hiro, many thanks to him for sharing a high quality copy (comes from a Scottish Broadcast). I've worked a few days to get a definitive version of the show, at least for now. The video was ajusted and the resolution was fixed. The audio has been equalized and adjusted to be more enjoyable. Please do not re-upload this video.

[Stanley]

What a performer even to this day he is still the business

[msanne]

Who still loves❤this in 2025?
Just did his 100th sold out show in MSG🎉🎉🎉
That’s what I call someone who is a legend

[michaelabetts]

The inspiration for hours and hours of piano practice to nail the prelude 🥵 We listened to this on Radio 1 as a family - happy times!

[philipbrayton]

I was there that night and will never forget it, Brilliant !!!!

[billyjoellivealbums]

Can we take a moment to appreciate how nice Billy's hair looked this whole tour?

[TheBigk]

I recorded this concert on VHS tape when it was broadcast in Britain at the time. It was one on my prize tapes, as you did back then! I never thought it would be available on youtube. GOOD JOB

[yandman]

The greatest EVER Joel concert. I was five years old. It was broadcast live on Radio 1 in England and that alone was a HUGE deal. My parents had friends over and we all sat and listened.🎉🎉🎉❤

[DylBuilder]

As much as I love 70's Billy, I still feel like this is his prime. He sounds and looks great!
Awesome job on this beautiful restoration Matthew!

[J.BOY]

Thank you for the wonderful video from 41 years ago today, when Billy was still very young.

[robertkasnak]

Incomparable musician and entertainer extraordinaire! Billy has few equals. He can write and sing in so many styles I've always thought of him as a one-man Beatles!

[Treppy_Gecky]

Appreciate this channel! Your full bootlegs of concerts made me realized just how amazing he is as a live performer. Even today when he moves song keys down a step he still sounds exactly like a recording it's phenomenal!

[RivusTenders]

I find it so strange the BBC have never repeated this / it has never been released commercially by Billy Joel. He's at his absolute peak here

[danadavisrn]

Love this recording! It takes me back to summer of 1984, and a special guy named Kevin. Just leave a tender moment alone...💖

[TheMLMGold]

I used to watch this concert on VHS as a teenager, so it brings back lots of nostalgia and sweet memories, I seem to remember This Night and Scenes From An Italian Restaurant the most but all his classic songs are featured. He was at the peak of his performance here and his best songwriting was from the late 70's to the early/mid 80's. Thanks for the great upload!

[riccardoangeli]

Uno dei migliori concerti in assoluto .... Piano Man il miglior songwriter e performer in assoluto

[chigimon]

Leave a tender moment alone is sublime. Was lucky enough to see Billy live last week in Cardiff, absolutely amazing.

[isabella-bopt]

before we continue, let's talk abt what Mark and Billy are doing in this concert and how silly they are
1:30:40 - 1:30:46
i like how billy had to look behind him to make sure that Mark was the one who touched his back 😭
and here in Only The Good Die Young (yes i know Mark gets on the piano for a while, its literally the cover of Sideman: In Persuit Of The Next Gig)
1:44:57 - 1:45:23
i find the little dance Mark does adorable and i love how Billy with no shame whatsoever grabs Mark's shirt and tugs on it and then Mark says something after 'aww, she never cared for me' and im attempting to read his lips but im still just a girl watching a billy joel concert on 9 o'clock on a Saturday soooo
anyway ty for coming to my Ted talk have a nice day and good job as always, matthew.
