about
A setting of the epigraph from the opening of F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel 'The Great Gatsby'. The words are attributed to Thomas Parke D'Invilliers, a pen-name of Fitzgerald's.
lyrics
Then wear the gold hat, if that will move her;
If you can bounce high, bounce for her too,
Till she cry “Lover, gold-hatted, high-bouncing lover,
I must have you!”

The sense of light and colour this album creates is so otherworldly: Josephine Foster's ethereal voice fluttering high over those creaky, mud-spattered arrangements. Astonishing. Mary Hampton
