William Martin "Billy" Joel (born May 9, 1949) is an American musician and pianist, singer-songwriter, and classical composer. Since releasing his first hit song, "Piano Man", in 1973, Joel has become the sixth best-selling recording artist and the third best-selling solo artist in the United States.
Most of his greatest hits are here in this compilation, all the way from the early storytelling songs ("Piano Man", "Captain Jack", "New York State of Mind", etc.), the radio-friendly classics ("Just The Way You Are", "My Life", "Uptown Girl", "The Longest Time", and so on), and the later gems ("A Matter of Trust", "We Didn't Start The Fire", "River of Dreams", etc.).
