This very limited edition CD is meant to be, literally and figuratively, a homage to the great gypsy guitarist, Django
Reinhardt. All songs were written by Django except tracks 1 and 4, while not written by Django, were often performed and recorded by him.As a long-time influence to Reynold, Django's music and
playing style is both physically demanding and harmonically altogether different. This CD is not, by any means, a definite example of his style but more of both a showcase of his influences on generations of
guitar players and a celebration of the harmonic vocabulary he alone invented. Finally, Reynold encourages all listeners to take the time and check out Django's catalog and the growing group of European
gypsy guitarists working today. |
