Minor Swing - Django Reinhardt & Stéphane Grappelli

[FANDORINtv]

BAAAAAARIEEEEEEEEEEERA!

[senorchipotle]

as awesome as django plays on this track, grappelli really stole the show. that's some ridiculous fiddling, i think django knew it, too.

[huschow]

Geniousity..

[azorpico]

Absolutely the best Django and Chet Atkins , different worlds but masters in their own, what a joy their music and style.

[muckyducky70]

Pure joy.

[eddiethehead137]

@wesd52 concuerdo contigo, es muy adecuada para acompañar una actividad relajante

[SVAFnemesis]

It's the city music for Downtown and Oakwood

[SVAFnemesis]

Thank Mafia for opening up the world of Swing Jazz for me

[featherinthewind123]

despite all the great guitarists who came after him, the older i get the more i realise django was possibly the best improviser of the lot

[zwa2k7]

purpette te cavaddrhu, wine, friends and good music ...the best for me!!!

Bella!!!

[zegh8578]

who else makes jazzy faces to this tune, or any face, oh yeah *makes face*

[wesd52]

Simplemente me encanta, que mejor que pasar una tarde de domingo leyendo al ritmo de un buen swing de Django

[jedajuz]

can I listen this if im not from italian gangsters family?

[MrSlapjakk]

@jedajuz of course, django was from Belgium!

[flattermonkey]

where's my suit

[MyFairDiva]

@flattermonkey Don't know, but I'm all dressed up here, let's go swingin'!

[ccorrao]

I'm not sure if 'swinginest' is a word, but if it is this might be the most swinginest ever.

Thanks for the post!

[zouzousable]

simples et efficaces, Django et Stéphane, l'éternité

[Pooch92893]

ESTHERO SAMPLED THIS.

[SetzerGodlike]

why the commentaries are enabled ? :-)

[hovercrafthooligan]

That's the dislike bar I want to see... or should I say... I want NOT to see

[quieroterry]

oh yes im enjoying A LOT

[artmusic101]

The Master at work.

[DinaTheNomad]

Minor Swing was first recorded by The Quintet of the Hot Club of France in 1937. It was recorded four other times throughout Reinhardt's career . Which one is this record?

[wajmeawinstonmetal]

@DinaTheNomad If I recall properly thi is one of the last recording he actually did not sure if the last one tho.

[patrizioserni]

a genius ......

[qubinrubin]

I wish I could like this twice.

[AnarchyAlleyCat]

one hundred years from now, no one will really remember or listen to most of todays pop stars, bud Django Reinhardt will be classic as Chopin, Bach or Jimi Hendrix :)

[auliasoemantrihardjo]

this is so... mindblowing! AAAAAAAH YEAAAAAH :D

[tigerstyle84]

Definitely it isssss!

[MrBogdanChe]

The worst part is after 3:14, definitely.

[lolita19711]

magnifecent

[pachendrix]

3:11 Is that "Master Betty" from Kung Pow? Anyways both Django and Stephane are genius, is great to see guys like Patrick Leguidcoq(Romane) and Stochelo Rosenberg still carrying their legacy.

[kakapipipupuchupa]

Django..what a fucking genius

[RoboHendrix]

Wow. Just wow.

[piikapoka]

I am so learning this on the guitar! :D

[LuckyFrench1]

Django was a genius! He re-framed the art of jazz guitar, played like a "god", and he missed 2 fingers on his "chord" hand, his left hand! Wow! my had to You, Django! Thanks for your contribution to the Jazz Music and guitar playing in general!

[JackTheRipper677]

Damn this song moves. One of my all time favorites for sure.

[Tablerockg]

Thumbs up if you are reading my comment.

[CRAZYGROUCHO]

@Tablerockg hahahahaha

[Misslotusification]

aaaaaaaa, le vrai Swing manouche que mon Papa aimait tellement!

[jacobei3849]

Django and Salvador Dali were cousins and whenever they met up at Thanksgiving and Christmas all they did was talk about their moustaches.

[piikapoka]

Heard of this song from the movie Chocolat :) <3

[unkind2006]

extraordinary talent..

[jamirosmajicrocks]

he sure does look like Gomez Alonzo Addams from the Adams Family...

[msharvell]

Hey If Mafia brought some people here, I just have one thing to say about that: Whoever chose the music for that game had awesome taste!

[crunkalac]

@msharvell tony iommi brought me here

[rafaelgagocaceres]

Djangooooo!!!

[BlottoForever]

Why does this make me cry?

[Azuzur]

@BlottoForever Because of your state of mind

[fieldmarshalhough]

Thank God for Mafia...

[Zeratul723]

Django..... clearly the best. Maybe the best there ever was.

[sdoruconstantin]

27 people are not gypsy !!! ;)

[EXZ98]

im 13 and love this music

[Bluezbreakr2]

@EXZ98 Congratulations. Want a cookie?

[EXZ98]

@Bluezbreakr2 uhh no my mom tells me not to take things from strangers! you sound like a pevert! no afence.....

[cantsnapurpicture]

this guy played with three fingers, what some people can't play with two hands

[frizzzzzzal]

@cantsnapurpicture he played with two fingers

[cantsnapurpicture]

@frizzzzzzal i still count his thumb :)

[zedbazi141]

2:32 = gold

ahh yeah..

[guitar19904]

im glad django never fought in WW2, the allied troops needed his music for morale ; )

[Classicalclaudia]

This is awesome!

[rfondo]

27 people pimple-faced teenagers believe if it isn't played with EMG 81/85s, it isn't music

[LCKnut]

@rfondo Nice!

[tonydjangolopez]

why do people always compare django to god? i mean, he's good and everything, but hell, he will never swing like django!

[aliemregurtekin]

this is mafia game sound. i like :)

[6musky]

Please take that fucking advert off.

[theaverageguys223]

he also had 3 fingers making the notes not strumming

[MrThedalaillamaknows]

@theaverageguys223 He had three functioning fingers on his fretting hand, which is why he uses all the crazy chord shapes and stuff.

[RomanovD3]

@MrThedalaillamaknows Actually just two, man. Index and medium. The guy was really somethin' :D

[MrThedalaillamaknows]

@RomanovD3 Shit, did i say something else? i apologize profusely, you are quite right, it was just the two.

[RomanovD3]

@MrThedalaillamaknows Well, who cares. As long as we are able to listen to his music, that'll be fine enough. By the way, I saw some picture where he actually press some frets with his ring finger, but apparently without bending it. So I guess we're both right somehow. Truth is always more compicated then it looks at first sight :)

[MrThedalaillamaknows]

@RomanovD3 Hahaha, too true! on all counts!

[theaverageguys223]

Thumbs up if you love Django Reinheardt's music. {=

[bloderme]

@theaverageguys223 This guy and Stephane Grappelli, what a great combination

[thiscitysamess]

Can anyone let me know a website where I can download/buy the sheet music for this song?

[671kmn]

@xtomasmlcoch Not me !Get off the stupid video terminology and maybe pick up an instrument fool!

[thelicoptero]

Música gitana la amo!!!

[Catperson1013]

This music is fantastic! Makes me wish that I could have been around to see and hear Django and the Hot Club Quintet perform in person!  Find me a time machine, please!

[emamonti9999]

[fullxpd]

[omatu1]

[bvscfanatic]

Anybody else notice that parts of this bear a slight resemblance to "Midnight In Moscow"?

[myjanuary151987]

Damn, for me definitely better than Jimmy. 30's rule, rest sucks.

[Kristofftofferson]

[Pompiduuuu]

i loved this song in Chocolat.

[JurbsProductions]

I NEED THE NOTES!!!

[coal4life]

Zoot! Bigtime gypsy jazz.

[jrgorilla1]

All I can think of is Buster Keaton chasing someone around in sped-up motion.

[RobBrooksMusic]

That is such a bad ass picture

[121nutty]

24 people never play mafia :D

[mrsvalsparrow]

24 people wished they had a mustache like this.

[NuclearGuru350]

[adoreslaurel]

And to be able to play with those crippled fingers,SENSATIONAL.

[735vinnie]

@professionaltroller1 ... LOL.... I've been sporting a mustache like Django's, for 10+ years.... since I learned of this greatest of sounds.

I share this music with any and all people I talk to, at work at play and everywhere I go and meet people who love listening to music and have not had the pleasure of discovering Django.

I like to think of introducing people to Django as a next stage in their journey of life. :-)

That what it that experience was for me. :-)

[JacobSijsma]

@professionaltroller1 Have you started growing your mustache yet :)?

[gageman70]

If evil had a theme song...

[piratelover43]

I was so glad they used this song in the movie 'chocolat'. made a great addition to an already great movie.

[unnamednewbie13]

@piratelover43 I was pleasantly surprised to hear it in the game "Mafia" as well.

[Enslaved6669]

I liked using only 1 finger...

[Tadesan]

I got my gypsy tears from Django.

[tilog761]

This man is a god! I can't do the quarter he's done with my 10 fingers...

[NolitaDenise]

@tilog761 - same reason times 100 why i can't listen to him very often. he makes me feel ashamed of myself for being so inept and not trying harder because i admit it, i'm weak when it comes to perseverance.

[Useless2112]

I'm making this comment section my bitch.

[roundtheblock1]

Django was a great guitarist because he was a great musician. As for his "legend," he is revered neither because of it nor in spite of it, but because of the music he left to posterity. We are fortunate that his recorded output is as large as it is.

[roundtheblock1]

Great music, great musician, mais tant pis pour la cigarette.

[Useless2112]

I was in the Vietnam War.

[Musclecar1973]

@Useless2112 Well Fuck You. It's not like you invented fucking war. Shit.

[DOCTORxWURZEL]

@Useless2112 Fail troll is fail

[Useless2112]

@DOCTORxWURZEL If I see this fail troll, I'll tell him.

[Useless2112]

Man, fuck Django Reinhardt! It snot like the motherfucker invented the motherfucking guitar or nothing. Shit.

[guillotinedeath]

i wanna take a pic with a joint like that with smoke and everything!

[Useless2112]

@guillotinedeath Shut the fuck up, I know what you're saying and I agree with it. Sheeeeeit!

[fromthesidelines]

Exactly HOW is my listing the members of the "Quintette of the Hot Club of France" who performed on this recording "bullshit", 'Useless'?

[Useless2112]

@fromthesidelines Sheeeit homie I don't make the rules! It's all about the game, know what I'm sayin? And that list was some BULL-SHIT. Ask anybody and they'll tell you the same, muthafucka.

[Useless2112]

This motherfucking shit is in fucking Mafia, that cunting video game. How the fuckballs do I still remember that shit? Holy sweet delicious piss.

[muckyducky70]

@Useless2112 You sure are one 'childish' little prick.

[Useless2112]

@muckyducky70 Bullshit! Imma tell my mom whut chu just said.

[fromthesidelines]

Recorded on November 25, 1937, with the following personnel:

Django Reinhardt, guitar

Stephane Grappelli, violin

Joseph Reinhardt, guitar

Eugene Vees, guitar

Louis Vola, bass

[Useless2112]

@fromthesidelines bullshit.

[john9944]

Great tune and the classic picture of Django. What a clean bean player and Stephane could carry his own weight. I met him late in life in a music store in Houston and his stories of Paris and the Hot Club, were to say the least spell binding. And with the Bob Wills style ending (The satisfaction) all I've got to say is...Ahh Yeah...

[girlycajun]

@john9944  This one reminds me of The Gypsy Kings. Django is great! And I'd never heard of him til now. Wonderful, wunnerful.

[Useless2112]

@girlycajun Fuck the Gypsy Kings.

[Useless2112]

@john9944 shut the fuck up.

[john9944]

@Useless2112 Never was a person so aptly named.  You picked a moniker that describes what you are.

[Useless2112]

@john9944 Wow, I'm 2112? That's insane! I prefer this moniker to Gigantic Cock McGoodlover, which is the moniker YO MOMMA GAVE ME! SHAZAM!

[pauso1998]

ank se è vekkia è sempre bll!!! :)
