On this episode, Shane talks with Australian pop-singer Liam Cooper about their shared interest in the backstory to Billy Joel’s, Piano Man. Liam is the creator and frontman of a show called King of the Keys, which features the music of Billy Joel, Elton John, Paul McCartney, and others. Liam had plans to shoot a music video featuring the original piano from The Executive Room cocktail lounge, but Shane’s new research has led him to question whether Billy Joel ever worked at that location or played on that piano.
