  • A must for Billy fans

    Wow. Their knowledge, their research, their proximity to all things Billy and their ability to interview nearly everyone in the Billyverse is amazing and enlightening. They have so much information I cannot listen to more than Episode at a time, and sometimes I have to break them up into micro listening sessions. SO MUCH VALUABLE INFORMATION!!! This pod is not for the casual fan, this pod is for the Super Fan. ENJOY!!

EP 146 - Behind Billy Joel: And So It Goes - Part 4 (with Music Mixer Brad Leigh)
Q: Thank you for joining us once again. When were you first approached about the documentary?
I was approached about it very early on, I think it was about three years ago.
EP 142 - In Conversation with Jon Small (Longtime Billy Joel collaborator)
Q: How has filming changed with the different medium choices between film, video, and digital?
Film was always the better way to do it, only because it looks better. I never really shot video, I only shot one, actually my first three were in video.
EP 142 - In Conversation with Jon Small (Longtime Billy Joel collaborator)
Q: Was it like a head session where they were putting it together on the fly?
Billy wrote most of the song, but they put their names first. Billy wasn't really happy about it.
EP 142 - In Conversation with Jon Small (Longtime Billy Joel collaborator)
Q: Did you all just feel you were ready and you had the material ready?
We were just really green, we met the producers one day. We knew nothing about them. We really didn't have any singles.
