Biography

Belgian jazz guitarist Django Reinhardt was a very poor gypsy who lost the use of two of his fingers in an accidental fire at the age of 18. Despite only being able to use two fingers on the fretboard, he still became one of the most popular jazz performers in Europe through the 1930s.

5.0 out of 5 stars Django Lives !, April 16, 2000

This review is from: Solo Sessions Vol 5 (Audio CD)
I have a fairly extensive collection of this artist's works. Though not known as a solo guitarist, his works on this record are timeless as today. I searched for his Improvisation No.2 for many years, and was rewarded with not one, but two versions of it on one CD.

I am struck by the similarity between Django and Jobim...something that I never noticed before. For people who are interested in the Guitar, and for the people who play it, this is a wonderful reward.

3.0 out of 5 stars Great music but..., April 26, 2005
This review is from: Solo Sessions Vol 5 (Audio CD)
As a recording this is 5 stars, but I'm deducting 2 stars because of the misrepresentation of the product. Of the 22 tracks, only 9 of them are solo guitar. The other tracks have an accompanying guitarist, piano, or in some cases, up to 4 other players! The music is excellent, but it's unethical to purposely deceive the consumer by naming a CD "The Solo Sessions", when more than half of the recording is ensemble playing.
