Billy Joel introduces members of his "orchestra" and also dedicates a little song to his sound manager.

I don't own this recording or the photo. Or the song "Happy Birthday". XD

I assume this was from the Stranger 30th anniversary edition?

[mission2marsden]

Yep.

[DecayingOrgasm]

Pretty awesome. When was this recorded?

[mission2marsden]

This was recorded in 1977 at one of Billy's live performances.

Don't you wish Billy Joel and band would sing "Happy Birthday" to you?

[mission2marsden]

Sigh... yes... I do... XD

@jonanjello If I'm not mistaken, that's Phil Ramone, who was Billy Joel's producer at the time.

@SaturnTrack

Thanks Saturn

Too bad Billy & Liberty had a falling out. Billy and his band were at the top of their game from 1977-82 IMO.

If you haven't already you should check out on youtube what Howie Emerson is doing now. Very interesting picking style. He also teaches. Bob

When I first heard this I thought the Fender Bass sounds similar to Mario Bro's when they go underground, in the tunnel? lol sweet.
