I love Django, but sometimes he seems kind of a lazy composer. He should have kept going a little more the fantastic sequence that begins at 2:28. Instead he (yeah, Grapelli, I know) drops it at 2:38 to reinstate the song's main theme. Fuck you, Django! I want more of that!
Just simply the BEST ! I'm assuming this is Django with Grapelli Anybody know who makes the comment at 2:33?? Also a thought for the guys playing 'la pompe' and bass, you too make it swing!
I hear every time at 2:32 that he says "Yea Finland, come on!" :P

I love 1:01 to 1:05 talk about makin' a statement!
I also love the trade to the violin - he gives the song to Grappelli like a newborn rabbit

In my opinion this is just the best version of the song.
It is almost unbelievable that Django could play all this with only 2 fingers.

@Ishouldliketosay he could use the 5 fingers, some of them were injured but he could still use them in some way

It sounds like he's saying something like,.."yeah(?) Stephane,..c'mon"
It's probably Django.

@sexyfatbastid Yes, it's Django saying "Yeah Stephane, go on".
