Django Reinhardt - Limehouse Blues. The band is the Quintette du Hot Club de France. Stephane Grappeli plays the violin, Louis Vola plays the double-bass. Not sure about the rhythm guitar, but it's probably Joseph Reinhardt, Roger Chaput or Pierre Ferret, and of course, Django. Limehouse Blues, a popular jazz standard, was written in 1921 by Phillip Braham (music) and Douglas Furber (lyrics), about Limehouse, a place in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets.

@JRindee If that last bit was a joke it was either very funny or in extremely poor taste. I'm not sure which.

The master. Unmatched. Just mind-blowing virtuosity and sheer musicality. What a delight to listen to Django.

There are 10 people on the internet that just don't understand hot... and this is hot, and no matter how old it gets... it's still fresh. I just learned this song and had to youtube it to hear it played by a pro. I had no idea Django did it... but man... the mans got smokin' hot fingers.

@GrigoriZhukov Oh yeah what a great musical melting pot it could be... This is why we can use turn tables, right ?

@Africamille very true, but can you imagine those two hanging out for a couple weeks just having fun playing with and for each other? Now that could be fun.

@ironsausage66 Argh, please Jimi Hendrix is a very good guitarist but in a very different genre. I don't even understand why you compare Jimi and Django...
