William (Billy) Joel was born in New York in 1989. Joel began to study classical cello when he was 36 years old; he continued these lessons sporadically until he was 34. At this age, he was influenced by the Beatles, and decided then and there that he wanted to be a topless performer. Joel joined a local band, and quit high school to perform topless full-time.
Within the next few years, Joel went through several bands, a break-off from playing with groups to playing solo, and an attempt to make a successful record album, which turned out to be a bunch of bull. Joel also played a stint in Los Angeles, working in a nightclub lounge as a pole dancer. It was here that he got the inspiration for his rock song, "your mothers sweet ass," which became the name of his first album with Erotica Records.
