Grapelli and Reinhardt killin it

I love the James Johnson recording - nice to hear it played in original rhythm. The Django Reinhardt has a nice 30's flavor to is as well.

2:50 Those are some SU-WEET looking guitars!

It was a surprise to find out that producers would add dynamics to piano rolls.
But I shouldn't be surprised, I guess. If sheet music publishers routinely simplified works by Eubie Blake they can just as easily enhance a piano roll.
I think Charleston #1 was enhanced with added dynamics. Simpler versions I've heard of The Charleston seem closer to how I imagine JP Johnson would have performed it.

Oh yes, the ones in this video are quite nice indeed (authentic too) but the one that trampakoulas007 posted was terribly hokey, it's just theme music.
This is the GOOD stuff :)
-
By hoki, it's still quite nice, eh?
-
It's not a charleston, just some hokey "theme music" for the scene played on an out of tune piano. It sounds like it borrowed a bit from "Entry of the gladiators" march.
