I'll tell you his life story is amazing. I believe he lost the use of all but 2 fingers and still learned to play the guitar and even created his own techniques. I am not a big jazz fan but I love his music!

I don't have time to read the whole story right now, but isn't John Jorgenson heavy into Django? I wonder if he'll show up too?

I grew up on jazz, and Django Reinhardt was one of those who left his mark on me besides my countryman Robert Normann.

If anyone should be called the greatest guitarist of all time, it has to be Django ...
