''Songs in the Attic'' is the first live album by Billy Joel, released in 1981 (see 1981 in music). At the time of its release, it was the first widely available appearance of music from his first album, ''Cold Spring Harbor'', originally released in 1971. ''Songs in the Attic'' introduced Billy Joel's early work to fans who had only come to know his work after ''The Stranger'', according to liner notes written by Joel. In his earlier work, most of the instruments were played by session musicians while Joel himself sang and played, piano, keyboards and harmonica, but by the late 1970s, Joel had a fairly consistent touring group, and so he wanted to showcase the songs with this band. The single-releases included: "Say Goodbye to Hollywood" and "She's Got a Way," which made the top 25, and "You're My Home". In Japan, "Los Angelenos" was also available in 1981.〔http://billyjoel52ndstreetserenade.blogspot.co.uk/p/single.html〕 A series of promotional music videos were filmed. Though the concert filming may have been staged for the occasion, the audio versions are nonetheless different from the live recordings featuring on the live album. A total of five promo videos were filmed: four of them recorded at Sparks and one in a recording studio. At least two of them, were not released as worldwide official singles.〔https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T2zjVszdiXA&index=1&list=PL7yz〕 "Everybody Loves You Now" (not a single) directed by Steve Cohen (live at Sparks); "You're My Home" directed by Steve Cohen (live at Sparks); "Los Angelenos" (not a single, though a Japanese 7" vinyl was in existence) directed by Steve Cohen (live at Sparks); "Say Goodbye to Hollywood" directed by Steve Cohen (live at Sparks); "She's Got a Way" live in a studio, also a different version from the live album.〔 ==Track listing== All songs written by Billy Joel. ;Side one #"Miami 2017 (Seen the Lights Go Out on Broadway)" – 5:05 # *Performed June 24, 1980 at Madison Square Garden, New York, NY #"Summer, Highland Falls" – 3:03 # *Performed July 23, 1980 at Bijou, Washington, D.C. #"Streetlife Serenader" – 5:17 # *Performed July 20, 1980 at St. Paul Civic Center, St. Paul, MN #"Los Angelenos" – 3:48 # *Performed July 10, 1980 at Toad's Place, New Haven, CT #"She's Got a Way" – 3:00 # *Performed June 1980 at Paradise Rock Club, Boston, MA #"Everybody Loves You Now" - 3:08 # *Performed July 23, 1980 at Bijou, Washington, D.C. ;Side two # # *Performed July 14, 1980 at Milwaukee Arena, Milwaukee, WI #"Captain Jack" – 7:16 # *Performed July 5, 1980 at Spectrum, Philadelphia, PA #"You're My Home" – 3:07 # *Performed July 23, 1980 at Bijou, Washington, D.C. #"The Ballad of Billy the Kid" – 5:28 # *Performed June 24, 1980 at Madison Square Garden, New York, NY #"I've Loved These Days" – 4:35 # *Performed July 16, 1980 at The Horizon, Chicago, IL 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Songs in the Attic」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
