1986年9月の作品「ブリッジ」の後に行われたツアーの締めくくりに行われた1987年7－8月のロシア公演の記録です。このライヴ・アルバムの冒頭・・・政治活動をシニカルに眺める"Angry Young Man"や真摯な"Honesty"、ベトナム戦争を歌った暗い"Goodnight Saigon"と続く構成は（実際の曲順・内容を編集しているのだろうとも思いますが、それにしても）ビリー・ジョエルのベトナム戦争に対する思い、このソ連公演にかける熱意を感じさせます。
Kontsert is the second live album by Billy Joel, released in 1987. The album was recorded during the Soviet leg of Joel's 1987 The Bridge tour.
During the Cold War, rock music was not allowed in the U.S.S.R. because it was not seen as part of Soviet culture. In 1987, Mikhail Gorbachev implemented glasnost—the Soviet policy of managed openness—and the Kremlin invited Billy Joel to perform in the Soviet Union in 1986.Joel, being a history enthusiast, took advantage of this opportunity, knowing that this would impact the history of the Cold War.He was seen as a "nice, safe, first attempt at bringing in an American 'pop star.'"
