Lords of 52^nd Street - Legends of the Billy Joel band featuring saxophonist Richie Cannata, drummer Liberty Divetto and guitarist Russell Javors. In 1975 when Billy Joel was looking for a new band, these musicians were selected by Billy Joel and Phil Ramone to record and tour the album Turnstiles and were coined The Lords of 52^nd Street.

They also recorded the album The Stranger which was a commercial success, it holds a RIAA diamond certification (10x platinum), and several #1 singles including, “Only The Good Die Young” and “Just The Way You Are.” The Lords of 52nd Street helped Joel establish a popular music career and his formidable sound.
