This is a short video I posted with some pictures of Django Reinhardt , gypsy jazz legend, born in France.Reinhardt's most popular compositions have become jazz standards influencing many musicians including classical guitarist Julian Bream.Django was placed on a list of ten most influential guitarists of the 20th century.
Enjoy !
I heard this on CBC radio at 6:30 this morning. What a way to start a Friday morning! CBC=Canadian Broadcasting Corp., our public broadcaster. And my neighbour's son is named after Django. Nice!

Tune was written by Victor Young, first published and recorded in Chicago around 1928 or so. Isn't this a recording of the guys with Teddy Hill's Orch in Paris? I've seen reference to this recording.

I wish I met that Sue girl :D
She must have been a beautiful woman when this king of poetry was written for her.

Loana, you know what year it was recorded? I`ve just uploaded another version of this song, recorded in 1935. The biggest diffrence is that "my" version has vocals included. Great share!
