Django... Gypsy Soul Man!

pickinguy

Any serious musician must listen to this cat. If you know a pro musician and they do not know who Django is then...I recommend the book, "Django The Life and Music of a Gypsy Legend" by Michael Dregni. I've read it a few times. Pretty insightful. When listening to Django's guitar playing, it kind of paints a picture of his timeline. I've always heard Chet Atkins perform "I'll See You In My Dreams" but at the time I didn't realize that came from Django. In Django's version, he picks the strings so hard yet it retains a certain gracefulness. It impacts the listener to go "WOW". Everyone should have at least some Django tunes in their own personal music catalog. Such great music!

Timeless...

Normally found on dusty old vinyl, Django is an essential part of any well rounded jazz diet. Four out of five hipsters recommend Django Reinhardt for any listener who loves great music.
