We can't split hairs here...Grapelli and Django have two completely different styles. Both are geniuses, Django being a natural uneducated talent and Grapelli a master. Lets just be utterly grteful that we're priviliged enoughto have had them both! By the way this posting's great...thanks. By theway OlymPigs2010, i agree with you my friend.

The scene where McCoy smiles at Stephane makes me cry...thanks for posting this.

This is sublime....OK, it's Grapelli's show but he's lucky enough to have a top ensemble here...anyone who isn't moved by this doesn't appreciate music, jazz or pure talent. What a wonderful moment in time. Brilliant!

I think Grapelli was learn some thinks from Great D´Janjo, but he may be have not special wood he was´nt be able to do this difficults magics thinks.

diminishedlogic: I agree 1000%! How Grappelli allowed himself to be a part of that crap amazes me. The beauty of this music (IMHO) is the acoustic instruments.

Stephane Gapelli said he learned his violin style from listening to Django play! One of the great/amazing things about Stephane is that he played with as much ease and consistency on the really hard parts as he did on the easy parts!

An authentic genius. At least we had him around for a couple of decades after Django's demise. |
