From Amazon:

Stars is a huge anthology in both volume and talent. Each story, available only here, is based on a Janis Ian song that meant something special to the author, who then wrote the story expressly for Stars, creating a meld of jazz, prose, and science fiction found nowhere else.
Ian, who won the Grammy Award for spoken-word entertainment for Society’s Child, joins the cast of this unique audiobook to narrate portions of Stars and also to perform the music that inspired each story.
This edition of Stars also features an original new story by Michael Swanwick, “For I Have Lain Me Down on the Stone of Loneliness and I’ll Not Be Back Again”, based on “Mary’s Eyes”, a Janis Ian song that has always moved him to tears.
Stars was compiled and edited by Mike Resnick and Janis Ian and includes stories by Nebula winners and such science fiction greats as Joe Haldeman, Jane Yolen, Gregory Benford, Orson Scott Card, and more. It also includes Ian’s first original story, “Prayerville”.
