Billy Joel - Only The Good Die Young - Live 1978 Nassau

Excluding of course the amazing performance from Nassau in 1982, this is one of the best versions of this song I've ever heard.
The 40 seconds of drums kind of bugs me but it's worth it when Billy starts playing!
Nassau Colliseum 1978

I own no rights to this song/picture/album whatsoever... :(

@SPAZPRPO I was really pleased when I found this too ^^ So many versions were really crackly... But hey, I'm always on the lookout for rarities - if I find any good ones I shall certainly post them

Exciting performance.

He also had such a great band !

They easily would stand toe to toe, note for note

with the E St. Band and their singer, imo.

Thanks for posting.

@mikemikeyf Oh definately! I'd have loved to have seen him when he was with Liberty and Richie...

Joel and Springsteen - two of the greatest musicians to come out of America... Actually, two of the greatest musicians EVER to my mind ^^

You're very welcome :)

@spinalcrackerbox I know! Live recordings are NEVER this good! I was ever so pleased with this rare find and I'm glad you are too ^^
