Awesome cd. He's one of the best entertainers of all time. I watched the actual show on AXS tv and was so impressed I had to get the audio cd. I'm very pleased with my purchase. Thanks

I'm a big fan of Billy Joel. That being said, I believe there have been better live albums of his concert work than this one. ("Songs In The Attic" and the Carnegie Hall 1977 bonus disc which came with the Legacy edition of "The Stranger" come to mind.) I purchased this primarily for the historic nature of the concert, the guest appearances and to keep my collection complete. I'd venture to guess that for the folks who were there for the two final shows at Shea, these discs are essential. To my ears, many of the songs here sound almost too busy. As his touring band has grown over the years, the need to keep every musician onstage occupied sometimes causes the piano to be overwhelmed. Everyone has a different set of ears, though. I just happen to prefer Billy Joel with a 5-piece band.

The Beatles opened Shea stadium, so it only makes sense that Billy Joel would have Paul McCartney help him close it! Paul opened CitiField & had Billy as a guest. Great show, very well filmed, it was like you were there! My particular used copy looked like someone sat on the box, but the discs play perfect. With no new albums, Billy seems to be content to be a nostolgia act. Always a great showman.
very good condition sounds great
