Billy Joel, 75, loses his balance and topples over on stage after throwing his microphone: 'He looked frail'


The singer, 75, was performing a gig at the Mohegan Sun resort in Stamford, Connecticut on Saturday when he lost his footing.

Billy's illustrious career as a musician began back in the mid-1960, which led to the release of debut studio album, Cold Spring Harbor (1971). The Stranger album, which was the first Joel's to be produced by Phil Ramone, went on to spend six weeks at number two on the US Billboard 200 chart, en route to selling more than 10 million copies worldwide. Maintaining his momentum, Joel dropped 52nd Street (1978) the following year, and it would end making his fist number one album of his career, with the support of such hit singles as My Life, Big Shot, Until The Night and Honesty.
