Summary: A Very Entertaining Look at Billy Joel's past and present
Review: In a word "greatness". That's how I would describe this man and his music. He has entertained generations of listeners with his music and stage presence. This collection is nothing less than inspired.

Yes, there is commentary before each video that some people thought messed with the continuity of the videos but they did show each video in its entirety after the commentary so nothing is missed or deleted because of it.

Commentary is interesting and insightful. I learned a lot about the background and inspiration for each song. I also developed a new respect for the songs included because of the commentary.

Don't let the naysayers discourage you from adding this DVD to your collection. Any true (and I mean TRUE) fan will appreciate Billy Joel's ability to set the tone for the video by presenting the background and origin of the music.

Granted, it is hardly a complete look at his work from past to present but other DVDs of his videos handle that nicely.

Summary: OK for Billy Joel Fans - Others can probably skip it
Review: It's unfortunate that the original material lacked the clarity that DVD can transmit. I also really hate the fact that Billy talks over the first 10 seconds or so of each video. The numbering is inconsistent since the commentary is not always odd numbered or even numberer tracks, so it's difficult to programme the DVD to skip the commentary the second time you want to see or listen to the videos without the commentary...

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great to see the videos, but want no comments option
Review: This is a great DVD. However, I was disappointed that there was no option to remove the commenting before each song. It would have been great to be able to play through the entire DVD with just listening and watchin the videos. There is a way to manually select just the video minus the commentary. This is a still a great DVD to own of the piano man!!

Summary: The Piano Man on the small screen again!
Review: This package is a lot like the audio counterpart of this video album. The only differences on this album are NO MAN'S LAND,a RIVER OF DREAMS track and live versions of ALL ABOUT SOUL,also from ROD and SHAMELESS,from STORM FRONT. See the audio counterpart for other details.
