The legacy of U2's The Joshua Tree, and ambassador of the Great American Songbook, Michael Feinstein, performs live - a podcast by ABC Radio

With U2 in Australia on the fifth leg of their Joshua Tree Tour, we explore the legacy of their 1987 classic album ‘The Joshua Tree’, and take the temperature of the group once regarded as ’the biggest rock band in the world’.

It’s been twelve years since we last caught up with singer, pianist and custodian of The Great American Songbook, Michael Feinstein. In that time he's had his conducting debut, written scores for musicals, formed a foundation to preserve the Songbook and much more. He also manages to perform 150 shows a year, too.
