Концерт (often corrupted as KOHUEPT; pronounced /kɒnˈtsɛrt/) is the second live album by Billy Joel, released in 1987. (See 1987 in music.) The album was recorded during Joel's 1987 tour in the USSR; the album title is the Russian word for "concert" (kontsert). The accent (stress) is on the second syllable, and as a result by the usual rules of Russian pronunciation, the "o" in the unstressed first syllable is pronounced much like an "a".
Performed during the The Bridge tour, Joel plays three songs from the album; "Big Man on Mulberry Street," "Baby Grand," and "A Matter of Trust."
"Back In The U.S.S.R." was released as the single off this album, ending Joel's record-setting streak of 39 Billboard top-40 singles from the start of a career written by the artist who performed it.
