For any of you folks who like guitar (anybody out there???) there are some videos of Django Reinhardt performing here that are quite cool.

Oscar Aleman

And for those folks who dig django check out Oscar Aleman, ( as if django lived to old age and kept his fingers ) an Argentin player who had a long well documented carer he even went to paris as Josephen Bakers dance partner! He is woefully and inexcusably unmentioned in the states, but David Grisman thankfuly has put out an excellent 2 c.d. retrospective on the Acoustic Disc label. Check out this picker!
