Billy Joel was still relatively unknown back in 1973 when he was booked to play the Roxy Theatre in Northampton, Pa. by then WSAN DJ Denny Somach. Due to WSAN’s airplay of the COLD SPRING HARBOR album, Billy was enthusiastically received by the Roxy audience and Denny had the forethought to place a cassette recorder onstage to document the show. This tape has been lost for 45 years until recently when…..well, I’ll let Denny tell you the story. Listen here and hear one of the songs from the show as well!
(that’s Denny and his WSAN radio station crew from back in the day)
