Billy Joel's keyboarder David Rosenthal has carefully arranged all the songs from the 89 album to combine the piano parts and vocal melodies into playable arrangements with precise transcriptions of the classical piano parts. The songbook contains a foreword by David Rosenthal, photos by Billy Joel and copies of his handwritten lyrics. The big hit "We Didn't Start the Fire" is included together with nine other classics: And So It Goes, The Downeaster "Alexa", I Go to Extremes, Leningrad, Shameless, State of Grace, Storm Front, That's Not Her Style and When in Rome.
