[Harp-L] Larry Adler plays gypsy jazz with Django Reinhardt

[David & Jackie Naiditch <french10@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've been playing the chromatic harmonica at various gypsy jazz  
jams.  I was originally inspired by Larry Adler who recorded 4 tunes  
with Django Reinhardt--My Melancholy Baby, I Got Rhythm, Body and  
Soul, and Lover Come Back to Me.   You can hear samples at

+His+American+Friends.htm

Scroll down to Django With His American Friends Album DISC 3  to find  
these 4 tunes.


Django was Toots Thielemans's first idol and he got to hear Django,  
but never played with him.  Recently, however, Toots played at  
Carnegie hall with the great gypsy jazz accordionist Ludovic Beier.
This show wasn't recorded, but you can hear Ludovic play with the  
great gypsy jazz guitarist Angelo Debarre:
