I still have this LP. I found myself in a rabbit hole of musical adventure when I first listened to it. Must find the CD now to hear the additional tracks.
For another Willner treat, check out his two-volume compilation of Carl Stalling music from the Warner Bros. Cartoons!
Also recommend GW Pabst's 1931 film version of Three-Penny Opera. Criterion's BluRay is excellent, but there are many uploads available on the Youtube...

Pabst's Threepenny Opera features Lotte Lenya singing Pirate Jenny! It features the primitive 1930s arrangements and feel. A real gem.
