Billy Joel Piano Man Vinyl LP, Columbia PC 32544, 1970s Reissue, Original Inner Sleeve
$22.00
Billy Joel Piano Man 12-inch vinyl LP on Columbia Records, catalog number PC 32544. Originally released in 1973, Piano Man was Billy Joel's second studio album and the record that brought him into the mainstream. This copy is a later 1970s U.S. Columbia pressing rather than the original KC 32544 issue. A nice copy for someone more interested in a clean-looking vintage record to play or collect than in finding a perfect jacket.
