Our Take
Step aside, coffee table book jazz fans, because Django Reinhardt is back with Volume 2 of his Paris and London recordings from the late '30s and early '40s. This album is a delightful romp through Reinhardt's unique brand of gypsy jazz, blending traditional swing with his signature fiery guitar playing. From the opening track, "After You've Gone," Reinhardt's virtuosity is on full display, with lightning-fast runs and intricate chord progressions that will leave your jaw on the floor. The Paris recordings capture the infectious energy of the city's bustling jazz scene, with Reinhardt's band effortlessly navigating complex arrangements and swinging like there's no tomorrow. But it's the London recordings that truly shine, showcasing Reinhardt's adaptability and willingness to experiment. Tracks like "Daphné" and "Limehouse Blues" see Reinhardt incorporating elements of traditional British folk music into his already eclectic sound, resulting in a truly unique listening experience. Overall, Volume 2 of Django Reinhardt's Paris and London recordings is a must-have for any jazz enthusiast. With its impeccable musicianship, infectious energy, and innovative blend of styles, this album is a testament to Reinhardt's enduring legacy as one of the greatest guitarists of all time. So grab your beret, pour yourself a glass of wine, and let Django Reinhardt whisk you away to a bygone era of jazz perfection.
