This Columbia long-box set, Collection: Piano Man/52nd Street/Kohuept: Live in Leningrad brings together two classic Billy Joel records -- Piano Man and 52nd Street -- with a third: Kohuept: Live in Leningrad, one of his most famous live performance. Unfortunately, other than the albums themselves being classics, there are no bonus tracks, no remastering, nor any additional material to speak of. So unless you don't already own these, or prefer to have them stored in a different format than jewel casing, the original single discs might just be the way to go; if anything for the ease of storage. ~ Rob Theakston, All Music Guide
