The Great Gatsby: Hit Songs of the 1920s is a riotous collection of songs and dance hits that perfectly captures the spirit of one of the most liberating, influential, radical and decadent decades of the modern age
This larger-than-life compilation features some of the era's most renowned composers - including Irving Berlin, Spencer Williams, Richard Rodgers, Fats Waller and Walter Donaldson. Classic performances come from Bing Crosby, Gene Austin, Ruth Etting, Miff Mole, Bix Beiderbecke, the Dorsey Brothers, Paul Whiteman & his orchestra, The Knickerbockers, Ted Lewis & his orchestra, The Charleston Chasers and many more.
These are the songs heard and enjoyed by the likes of Cole Porter, Ernest Hemingway, Ezra Pound and F. Scott Fitzgerald - the magnificent musical world of The Beautiful and Damned, This Side Of Paradise and, of course, The Great Gatsby.
