Radio / Django Reinhardt & Stephan Grapelli: «I Will Wait»



Y esta joya la toca... RADIO Rancho Las Voces... para la PATO GUAJARDO...que nos escucha en el DF...saludos...Radio Rancho Las Voces...te complace...

En el sitio WFMU'S encontramos el siguiente comentario: Here's a cool short film of the great Gypsy guitarist Django Reinhardt and his Quintet of the Hot Club of France performing J'Attenndrai "I Will Wait". A newsreel-style announcer introduces the band as they lounge around a room, smoking and playing cards while a young Django and Stephane Grappelli lightly jam. Then it goes into a full blown performance of the Quintet. This is the first time I've ever seen Django play, after loving his music for 30 years. You can get a good view of Django's fret hand, which had two damaged fingers from a fire he suffered when he was eighteen. Despite his permanent hand injury, Django went on to be one of the main innovators of using the guitar as a melody instrument, along with Charlie Christian, Lonnie Johnson and Sister Rosetta Tharpe.
