Okay folks, I don't think this has ever been torrented before.

This Masterclass recording comes from 2 locations on the same day.

The first 3 tracks take place back stage at The Spectrum in Philadelphia during a soundcheck.

Billy was interviewed by DJ Ed Sciaky. This was night 6 of a 6 night stand at the Spectrum.

Tracks 4 thru 15 are from a Masterclass which takes place at the University of The Arts in Philadelphia, prior to that evenings show.

The 90 minute tape was full. I removed some studio tracks, thus the end is cut off and I don't know how much is missing.

Regardless, this is still really cool to hear.

Billy's stories are entertaining and Billy doesn't need a piano to be enjoyed.

Thanks to Ken for supplying the tape.
