Has anyone got a CD quality version of the soundtrack, one of the most admired aspects of the film? Nelson Riddle did a great job but there is no CD of the soundtrack. I have the 2 LP version on vinyl and although the imperfections of vinyl add to the nostalgia, it'll be nice to get a clean copy...
Not since Bobby Fosse has there ever been a film director like him, Roberto Marshall!
I love the song from it:
What'll I do
When you
have gone away
and I am blue
What'll I do?
I don't think it was written for The Great Gatsby, though, right? Isn't it a famous song from the 30's or something?
Its a very famous 30s hit by a little known Russian born composer named Irving Berlin ( he made his name up, I think ) called What'll I Do? The song fit this movie so perfectly that its hard to imagine the two things not springing from some same source.
In England, many people were asking what a "wattle" was. True story.
That is my second most favourite song ever! After that clown one.

Irving Berlin, huh? I should have known that one! <slaps palm against forehead>
What's a "wattle?" ROFL
The music was simply fantastic. I have the soundrack and had it converted to CD. I listen to it often...(except I really don't like the "Tom and Myrtle" music. So....drug out and boring.
