Sony Classical have just released the jazz recordings featured in the latest Baz Luhrmann film The Great Gatsby on a new CD and as downloads. The Great Gatsby –  Jazz Recordings feat. The Bryan Ferry Orchestra – A Selection of Yellow Cocktail Music provides plenty here from the Bryan Ferry Orchestra, and tracks by Jelly Roll Morton, Louis Armstrong and Irving Aaronson & His Commanders. It’s a big mix of the contemporary and vintage including “jazz age” styled covers by the Ferry Orchestra of songs by Amy Winehouse, Roxy Music and more. Of the jazz in the context of the film Jelly Roll’s ‘New Orleans Bump’ worked best for me, but if you’re after real vintage jazz in a recent film specially curated from a more literal jazz perspective then this isn’t perhaps for you, although the Ferry approach is definitely quirky. Wynton’s score for the Dan Pritzker silent movie Louis is better as is Ludovic Bource's music for the Oscar winning The Artist, but the Morton here is well worth buying as an MP3, as are the Armstrong and the Aaronson portions of the soundtrack.
