    Elvis Costello's absolutely stunning version of Lost in the Stars tops my favorites. I recommend this for Weill afficionados as well as those new to this genre and Weill in particular.

    This record, while not everyone's cup of tea, contains many extremely interesting interpretations of Weill's music. Contemporary reinventions by Cave and Costello bring unique color to the standards. Most interesting is noticing the places where Weill's style and these contemporary performers' sensibility intersect.
