Featured are some of the giants of the music world; Elvis Costello and Burt Bacharach are backed up by a string orchestra and the trademark Bacharach flugelhorns. Flea contributes his distinctive bass work to Jewel's "You Belong To Me."

The programming on the disc was done thoughtfully, and the performances flow like a well planned concert.
