Gatsby Blog

I believe that since The Great Gatsby took place during the jazz age jazz music would be a good fit for it. I think the first i would choose would be "Charleston" by James P. Johnson. This would be a good song because during the twenties this was a very popular song to dance to and would fit well in one of Gatsby's parties. Another good song would be "St. Louis Blues" by W.C. Handy. This would be a good song because it talks about a hopeless love and his girl is leaving town and this is kind of like Daisy and Gatsby.
