The Bluesy Soundtrack of 'The Wolf of Wall Street'

I have yet to see the movie, however knowing director Martin Scorsese's love for blues music (he has included blues songs in many of his movies, such as Goodfellas), I knew there would be some blues music in there, and my instinct proved right!

The soundtrack features many blues and jazz songs, from Cannonball Adderley to Ahmad Jamal to Bo Diddley to Howlin' Wolf. Of course not the whole soundtrack is composed of blues and jazz, but if you want a solid music collection this soundtrack is available now.
