For Just The Way You Are, I've found a live version from 1977. As noted in the Wikipedia article, Just The Way You Are was written as a love song for Elizabeth Weber, whom Billj Joel later married. If you are interested, Elizabeth Joel produced a short film on Nocture, a piano track orginally from Cold Sping Harbour.

Just The Way You Are - Sax Solo

Phil Woods played the alto sax solo on the original studio album. I chose it for one of the best sax solos in my hall of fame. You can vote for it there as the greatest sax solo - or maybe listen to some of the other sax solos and vote for your own favourite.

I now also have a special collection of 1970s sax solos.

Old the Good Die Young

Live 1978

This is quite a bit faster than the sudio version, but Billy did like to pick up the pace when he can. If you'd rather listen to the studio version, there is a copy here. Personally I prefer the almost rockability style of the studio track.
