Django and QduHCdeFrance made a lot of recordings for Decca when in London in 1938. Decca issued a boxed set in the 70's of 5 LPs which I loved. Sadly the Removals people in Basildon pillaged our possessions when we hired them to return them to Canada and fully 1/2 of my Jazz collection was lost including all items from N-Z, so Reinhardt was right in the middle.
I don't entirely understand Shuttlebill's comment, except that you could pick up girls at the dances. Django just played.

Some people below are right, he spent most of his life in France, died in France, so maybe, but all in all hes considerd Belgian

He shoulda been targeted, but he got those Krauts LAAAIIIIIDDD! Which explains more about the human condition than any socio-pol analysis evar did.
