[pentejo420]

This video got me completely hooked, out of the nearly 68000 views, 2000 are mine. Is this recording available on CD?

[JazzAnnon]

this is a version that is going to be stuck in my head forever.

[JazzAnnon]

@5:46 it could be a great time for a pink panther theme. :D

[mrkalamaris]

[laughingogliphot]

[Bonnetryne]

Sounds divine :)

[mseraus]

Nice chords at 1:58

[makasoona34]

Bireli's phrase at 7:46 is unbelievable!

[funkyflautist]

WOW

[caroldbritz]

Smooth

[MrRock2Rock]

Phenomenal - Just as good as Josho Stephan

[PepitoSmooth]

HAHA ! Do you have ears ???

[MrRock2Rock]

@PepitoSmooth Yes! Two Ears. But i did a mistake. It was not good to use the word "just". They are both on a very very high level. A level which you and i will never reach. ;o) Mary Christmas.

[voodoosoup]

@MrRock2Rock josho stephan does not come close

[MrRock2Rock]

@voodoosoup Yes I know...Bireli ist the best guitarist in the wohle world and no other comes close to him. :.o)))

[voodoosoup]

@MrRock2Rock no thats not what is said ,josho stephan is not really that good as you think he is. technicly yes, but for the rest...

[voodoosoup]

@MrRock2Rock anyway its stupid discussing stuff like this. i own you an apologie for the trouble

[MrRock2Rock]

@voodoosoup No Trouble! Everything is good. It's my fault, 'cause I began that stuff. I wish you a nice weekend! Greetings from Germany!

[WawauAdlerJazz]

Django.

[kerjiji38]

Absolument genial

[l5e2n9]

Django took the Jazz guitar farther. Thanks to him we have amazing Jazz guitarists like Bireli. Who keeps the True essence of gypsy Jazz alive.

[VintageReverb]

Bireli's feeling is awesome........!

Is this from a DVD?:)

[alan271164]

[fabb91]

[zarisstokell]

i think that's restraint.

[MegaDeina]

Viva France and Germany

[slowbrain67]

Bireli is the king of jazz guitar!!!!!!!!!!!swing,tecnich­e, spirit,sense of humor,chromatics and all the rest!!hats of and neal down for the king!!!

rexious5 and all your critics and analisys...but who are you?Coltrane reborn?relax man take a nice cold beer and go jam with some budies..

[Hucho]

who are you then fagot? How can you call someone the king of jazz guitar? that's bullshit. btw Django was way more original than this guy

[Cthulhussama]

This man is realy amazing.

But there is no king of jazz guitar that's right.

And yes django was django

[jmarcsunken]

@slowbrain67 My gosh i do agree ! He's just the best of all ! A genius !

[giacimasu]

E' un grande genio della musica....senza parole...ha tanto gusto... tecnica..... inventiva.... ogni commento viene stretto...

[rexious5]

that soprano sax sounds cheesy in my estimation he shoulda went balls out dolphy style with the bass clarinet. yeah. although no critique to his playing he definitely kills. alright well maybe at times hes a little kenny g'd out or wait maybe it is just the sax. hmm.. Birelis nice, although i maybe slightly more prone to seizures now from all the dizzying chromaticganza. not sure if thats good or bad. maybe ease off it just a bit but then again he is a gypsy. nevertheless was a pleasure. bravo!

[zoroastrenietzsche]

One of the very best rendition of "Blues en Mineur". Biréli is awesome.

[scapinfourberie]

this sound is extraordinary to play gipsy jazz!!!it's rare that bireli was so concentrate and thoroughly in what he made!!!!!!awesome genius!!!!

[Dvareckas]

Bireli Lagrene solo virtuozo!!!

[Virghin]

saxofonist is great. Intimate, someone easily solid also, even sassy at times. don't know if it's lagrene who really rules here

[thejazzman8]

dreyfus is brilliant....bireli is outlandish though...

[MarioMaccaferriRules]

^^ Wow. Here's inspiration. Bireli forever :)

[xMiloTheGreatx]

I love how he changes style when he changes pick ups. Shows his versatility!!!

[Chief5228]

I agree with you 100% except I'd say that he changes pick ups when he changes his playing style, rather than vice versa. HAHA sorry for being picky, I'm a student and used to being analytical.

[thomaski]

YES

[alexpagan]

He's cheating.  He's using four fingers to fret.

[ruffzclone]

KUDOS!

Great recording quality for a live performance!

[oppis]

The song is called minor blues or blues en mineur. Composed by Django Reinhardt
