Piano Man Somewhere Along the Line You're My Home Travelin' Prayer The Ballad of Billy the Kid My First Impression of Country Music The Entertainer Everybody Loves You Now Captain Jack Summer, Highland Falls

This was likely a radio broadcast and/or a bootleg released from a radio broadcast record or tape. Some versions end with or in the middle of Captain Jack. In 1974, Billy Joel tended to play longer shows. Prior comments: I have a feeling this is not a complete recording, because the very last track on my show sounds like it is a prelude to "Uptown Girl". But it's still a really cool early show of Billy Joel's. Note: Uptown Girl was not released for another 9 years, please take this comment with a grain of salt
