КОНЦЕРТ (often inaccurately rendered KOHUEPT; it is pronounced ) is the second live album by Billy Joel, released in 1987. (see 1987 in music). The album was recorded during Joel's 1987 tour in the USSR; the album title is the Russian word for "concert" (kontsert). The accent (stress) is on the second syllable, and as a result by the usual rules of Russian pronunciation, the "o" in the unstressed first syllable is pronounced much like an "a".

"Back In The USSR" was released as the single off this album, ending Joel's record-setting streak of 39 Billboard top-40 singles from the start of a career written by the artist who performed it.
