Zelda tended to hear the ripple of music throughout life; her memories were often washed deep in musical images. “Paul Whiteman played the significance of amusement on his violin,” she said later. “Three O’clock in the Morning” was recorded at least once more that year, and advertised in the pages of the New York Times on Saturday, November 18, 1922, as the Fitzgeralds took the train through New Brunswick to the football game.

“In the real dark night of the Soul,” Fitzgerald wrote much later, “it is always three o’clock in the morning.” Perhaps this is the waltz Zelda was asking him to save: she found her novel’s title, she said, in the Victor Record Catalogue. Music measured life into beats: “Listen,” David tells Alabama, “you’re not keeping time.”
