You know an artist is good when the live version sounds almost the same as the recorded version. If you're not buying the whole album, then definitely buy "movin' out". One of my favorites
I like it about as much as 2000 YEARS

(the New Year's concert cd) "Everybody Loves You Now" is great; for $.99, grab it!
Billy Joel's Hits

Billy trucks through the hits on this album, and in the amazing live, crisp clarity. It really make for a great listening experience. If you own stranger, or love the songs "Scenes from an Italian Restaurant" or "The Entertainer," this is a must have album. All the tracks are great, with the small gripe of Joel's voice getting shaky during a low dip of Piano Man.
Billy Joel's "12 Gardens Live" is for Elton John Fans.

Billy Joel released "12 Gardens Live" in 2006 because of The Late Robert F. Kennedy. Elton John fans would like this album (except: Stephen Frazier). If you like Billy Joel, you would also like Elton John's "The Captain and The Kid" (2006), Paula Cole's "Courage" (2007), Various Artists' "Super Hits: 1984", and Faith Hill's "Joy To The World" (2008).
Are all the songs slowed down from their original keys?

I am an avid Billy Joel fan and have grown up appreciating his remarkable talent. This album is an attractive collection but for those of us who are musicians and/or appreciate authenticity, be aware that virtually every track sounds altered as if they were detuned by either a half-step or whole-step. While I have not verified every track, I have performed many of these songs and have confirmed many of the key changes. It is not uncommon for performers to change the keys of their songs on occasion but these were simply detuned versions (playback of recording was slowed down slightly) and so Billy Joel's voice sounds a bit darker and the instrumentation feels off a bit. It can be entertaining trying to perform the songs in the new keys but overall what could and should have been an easy winner of a collection left me feeling uneasy. I remain a huge fan of this performer but I would suggest giving the tracks a good listen before committing. Kudos to Billy Joel and his band for some solid performances! It's unfortunate that the recording doesn't accurately reflect their talents. Some of the songs tested as inaccurate include: Angry Young Man - originally in C, recorded version in B My Life - half step down from original Everybody Loves you Now - down whole step from C-Bb Ballad of Billy the Kid - Recording in F, Original in G The Entertainer - Original in G, recording slowed down to F Vienna - Original in Bb, recording in Ab New York State of Mind - Original in C, Recording in Bb Zanzibar - Half step down from Am to Abm Miami 2017 - Original in D, recording slowed to Db Allentown - down a half step Movin' Out - down a half step She's Always a Woman - Original in Eb, recording down half-step to D
Vintage but not the best year

12 Gardens Live is a collection of many hits of William Joseph Martin. However, live is rarerly as good as the studio version. If you want to be taken back to your memories connected with these great Billy Joel songs, find the original albums.
Great concert and album!!

I saw him in concert at the Hartford Civic Center in March 2006. He was great!! I bought this album during the 2007 World Series with the Rockies and Red Sox. I started listening to it and fell in love with it. I recommend this album to any Billy Joel fan and especially everyone that saw him live!!
Billy live and at his finest.

You'll never find another artist like Billy Joel. This 12 Gardens album gives you a hint about just how phenomenal he is live. My personal favorites from this album are Scenes from an Italian Restaurant and Zanzibar. Whether you grow up on the East coast or the Midwest, over the years he has gifted us with "a sountrack to our lives" (if that makes any sense). timeless.

The best part about this album is he performs tracks that were never released...some of which have never been performed live. All For Leyna is mysteriously missing from this live effort. I've listened to the entire album and for me his music sounds completely different (and not in a good way) without Liberty DeVitto behind the drum kit. You can't dismiss your drummer of thirty years who a lot of this music is built around and expect a good effort.I wouldn't buy this one.
