Rock legend Billy Joel is racing up the road to recovery - he's back on his feet less than two weeks after undergoing a double hip replacement.
The Piano Man, 61, checked into a hospital in Long Island, New York on 20 November (10) to fix a congenital hip ailment.
He recently returned home, where he is being nursed back to full health by his 28-year-old girlfriend Alexis Roderick.
And her love and care appears to have done wonders for the rocker's recovery - friends of the star tell WENN he is in "good spirits" and is managing to get around with the help of two canes.
