5 out of 5 stars What a find!.......2007-04-03

This is an incredible collection of jazz..classic Django and much more. Great combos and soloists including trumpet, sax, mouth organ (harmonica?)and clarinet among others. I only wish there were a way to identify who the players are. Django is obvious, but the others are really talented musicians (without names?). Recordings are good, and variety makes it listenable for hours. The price is an extra bonus.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent value.......2007-02-17

You can't get a better value than this on Django's stuff. The recordings are not the best but are still listenable.

5 out of 5 stars THIS IS AMAZING!!!!.......2007-02-17

If you're into Django Reinhardt, look no further! I'm just starting to peel back the layers and this generously-priced collection has ALOT to offer. I got mine the other day and am still working my way through the 10 hours or so Django. I initially feared that the price reflected the quality of the recordings but that simply isn't the case. Every song sounds superb! And, needless to say, Django shines!

5 out of 5 stars Djangology 10 cd set.......2006-07-03

Wonderful set. The only (monro) complaint I have is the lack of liner notes, so there is no information on when a song was recorded or who the personnel were on the recording. This is a very minor complaint. Te sound quality is excellent. I would definately recommend this set to all Django fans.

5 out of 5 stars django 10 discs.......2006-03-10

This is a sweet set. 10 discs complied from different years. Good mastering. For this price or any price you can not go wrong.

    Album Description

    The first album, Djangology has been recorded with the WDR Big Band (from Koln, Germany). Bireli debuted this exquisite program to standing ovations in his headlining performance at the 2006 IAJE conference in New York. The second disc, To Bi Or Not To Bi - is exclusively composed with live solo performances. Intense moments in which improvisation is king and surprises are plentiful!

    An exceptional 2 CD boxset to celebrate the 40th birthday of one of world's most exciting guitarists.

    Amazon.com

    In 1949, Django Reinhardt and Stephane Grappelli reunited for a brief tour of Italy. While they were there they recorded about 50 tunes with an Italian rhythm section, and although they didn't know it at the time, these sessions marked the last time the Gypsy guitarist and the French violinist recorded together. This CD collects 23 of the best tracks from those final sessions, including versions of Hot Club standards like "Minor Swing," "Bricktop," and "Swing 42." Reinhardt and Grappelli don't try to recreate the raucous swing of their earlier collaborations, opting instead for an intriguing blend of romantic, almost classical melodic soloing and bebop-tinged harmonies and rhythms. The attempt doesn't always succeed, primarily because the three musicians on drums, bass, and piano are clearly out of their depth. But when the two masters click, as they do on "I Got Rhythm," they demonstrate an eagerness to explore the new musical possibilities offered by postwar jazz. Sadly Reinhardt died not long after he returned from Italy, so he and Grappelli were never able to continue their musical exploration, leaving the music on Djangology as a final farewell to one of the great partnerships in jazz. --Michael Simmons

    4 out of 5 stars Great music...but only decent CD.......2006-12-20

    First off, this music is great. Reinhardt's reunion with Stephane Grappelly is a worthy addition to his library. While not quite as good to these ears as his mid/late 30's recordings, they're still pretty good.

    My only problem is with the sound quality of the CD itself. I'm assuming it's probably just the original source material, though it could be a mastering issue. The sound, while good for the most part, does seem a bit distorted in portions. It's sometimes scratchy, and you can hear instruments bloom and distort from time to time, moreso on the high & loud notes. I have many recordings from this era, and they typically sound better than this. This WAS recorded in Italy, and i'm not aware of what the Italian studios were like in the late 40s. Perhaps they didn't have quite the sound capability that American studios had at the time. Perhaps the originals were not stored well in Italy. I don't know.

    It's not a bad enough problem to make me not want to listen to it, but it is unfortunate that i have some Benny Goodman Trio recordings from 10 years earlier that sound cleaner than this. I never buy bootleg recordings...only the ones released by the owning companies, who utilize original source materials. That having been said, i'm a bit disappointed. While i would still recommend this CD, i would also recommend some of the earlier Reinhardt stuff, especially from the late 30s. The sound quality on those is at least as good as the stuff on this 1949 disc.

    5 out of 5 stars Django.......2006-06-28

    Simply Django finally in a very well recorded edition. So it's something fantastic believe me. It is simply a marvellous listening experience, I searched for this record for some time and finally I have it in my hands... Oh Django! Some people are afraid of listening to Django because they have the impression that this music could be "dated", not trendy anymore. This music is brilliant and Django is forever! He was like Parker, Gillespie, Powell on their own instrument. Guitar (and even Jazz in a sense) has never been the same after Django. It is a boppish kind of session. It is still a classical Grappelli - Reinhardt cohoperation but it has been recorded in the late Django years (he died not few months after this recording) so he has already been exposed to the influence of bebop. He liked bebop (which music connossoir could dislike it?) and for a brief period he was even intimidated by bebop giants. But he was an unbelievable natural talent so in the end he started to play his own version of bebop incorporating it into his gitane music. Here you can find a lot of classic Django (Daphne, Minor swing), some very well known american standards (All the things you are, It's only a paper moon, After you've gone etc) in a small combo format. It's Django with Grappelli and few less known italian musicians who had the very lucky opportunity to play with the master. It is a sort of very appropriate introduction to Django's music, maybe together with the double Verve cd "Peche a la mouche" which I suggest too. It is sublime, very romantic but also very skyrocketing at some point. Django is unforgettable. he was really mature in his style, very in control, unbelievably virtuosistic but even melodic, as he has always been by the way ,... but here you can appreciate his talent in a very well remastered edition of some of his best music. Highly suggested!!!!!

    4 out of 5 stars Greatest Guitarist Ever! Great Packaging! Good Sound!.......2005-11-15

    No less a guitar great than Les Paul has declared Django the best guitarist that there has ever been. Les Paul should know as he's lived through many of them including Eddie Van Halen. From a guy who totally improvised great solo after great solo at speeds that Eddie could only reach by using his two-handed technique, Django just used the two working fingers of his left hand. Incredible! I used to own the old 2-disc "Djangologie" covering his material prior to this period and although his playing was great to hear, the hiss and bad recording wasn't so I'm glad although we have here the '49 version and only 23 tracks, the sound quality is vastly improved and is decent considering what must have been the condition of the original master after all these years. I also like the cardboard packaging and the liner notes. If you like to hear great jazz guitar played in the acoustic style, this is the one to get. Recommended.

    5 out of 5 stars A must-have for Django fans.......2005-03-29

    This CD's tracks are a good representation of the post-war Django, after he had been exposed to the emerging be-bop style and phrasing. Here, Django and extraordinary violinist Stephane Grappelli record some of their classics with three Italian jazzmen (piano, bass and brushed snare-drum), providing a somewhat different feel from the sound of his guitar-dominated 1930's Hot Club days.

    For "generalist" jazz fans, this CD will give a nostalgic taste of rhythms, textures and sounds of another time - delivered by the best. For Django and Stephane's aficionados, these tracks are a gem. Django's playing is red hot yet polished, crisp and precise, and continues to amaze for the sheer richness of his inexhaustible ideas both as a soloist and an accompanist. Stephane once again proves why he was the indisputed genius of the jazz violin - never missing a beat, a quarter-tone or an opportunity to say something fresh, new and heartfelt.

    The all-Italian rhythm section is in style and non-intrusive, allowing the two stars to express themselves to the fullest while providing great steady support. The occasional piano solo is delivered beautifully in a very personal style, with techniques clearly reminiscent of a strong classical background.

    Sound-wise, a great effort was made to rid the old recording of white noise and hissing. I am extremely pleased with the result - Django's Selmer guitar and Stephane's magic violin come across crisp and clear.

    Listen to "Minor Swing" or "I'll never be the same" if you want to get a chill up your spine. This CD helps understand why Django is, to this day, the most influential jazz guitarist who ever lived.

    4 out of 5 stars A good introduction to Django Reinhardt.......2003-03-07

    This cd was enjoyable for a listening session. There are enough familiar tracks ("Paper Moon" and "Pathetique") to pique the interest in the European Jazz of Django Reinhardt.

    It takes a couple of spins to get to know this album. I had never listened to DR before. The music reminded me of what Don Ho would play on his ukelele during his TV show run. Only when you realize when it was recorded can you appreciate the innovation of his music. Jazz is American in creation. It is also quite rhythmic in tempo. Reinhardt and other Europeans broke that convention with arrythmic variations to their music.

    I may be wrong, but, Django's influence can be detected in Led Zeppelin of all places (Jimmy Page using a bow on his guitar!).

    All in all if you want to learn about European Jazz this disc is a good place to make a start.

    Just Django and Grapelli recorded in a radio studio in '47, I think.Wonderful interplay, and the sound quality is so much better than than the early Hot Club records.

    4 out of 5 stars Late Django at his finest.......2002-01-16

    A valuable corrective to the conventional wisdom about Reinhardt's post-war playing, which, so far from deteriorating, actually achieved deeper levels of communicative insight. In fact, I think his solo "Ou est tu, mon amour" is his finest moment on record; and you can't say fairer than that.

    5 out of 5 stars Later-years Reinhardt/Grappelli gem.......2000-07-01

    This is clear cut evidence against the argument that Django's playing was slipping in his later years. Teaming up once again with longtime cohort and master violinist Stephane Grappelli, Django blazes through fourteen standards and six of his own compositions. The rhythm guitar backup that fueled their classic recordings of the 30's are subsituted with a standard jazz rhythm section of guitar, bass and drums, played by a trio of locals in Rome. The pianist, Gianni Safred, is particularly notable in the small solo space awarded him. He had obviously heard the sounds of Bud Powell which were making their way to Europe. And Django himself is breathtaking, playing with a little less reckless abandon, and little more composure than in his old days, but with the same fire and genius that has made him one of the reigning kings of his instrument. Just about all 20 tracks on this reissue are classics.

    5 out of 5 stars That unique Django style..........1999-03-13

    Man, this guy was cool! The swingin' Django Reinhardt returns for a post-war session with his old fiddling partner Grappelli, and the result is this sensational series of tracks. The "new" Quintette of the Hot Club of France features a typical rhythmn section (piano, drums, bass) to replace the guitar entourage, but the effect is revitalizing. "Honeysuckle Rose" may be the best rendition of this Fats Waller classic, and Dj. and company also to a teriffic job with other standards like "I've Got Rhythmn" and "Beyond the Sea." And, of course, he's got his own tunes, like "Heavy Artillery" (heavy swing, man, very heavy), "Minor Swing" (it's anything but minor!), "Djangology," and his most popular number, "Daphne". Great all around! If you like swing and are looking for something a little bit different or light years away from the deluge of modern jump blues, give Django a try. (I also recommend a modern band called 8 1/2 Souvenirs who do their own unique hommage to Mr. Reinhardt and his "gypsy swing").

    5 out of 5 stars TWO SWINGING ICONS MAKE BEAUTIFUL NOSTALGIC MUSIC TOGETHER.......2007-04-12

    This impressive slice of nostalgia by two swinging jazz icons with a style no one else has ever replicated, is served up via fifty-three tracks from their productive years 1934-1946. The esteemed gypsy jazz guitarist Django Reinhardt and the classically trained French-born violinist Stephane Grappelli may have come from opposite backgrounds but together made beautifully crafted music. Forming their Quintette du Hot Club de France, they figured highly when Paris was a jazz hot-spot and refuge for many American musicians who found respect, motivation and artistic freedom. Naturally, many of the songs emanate from the Great American Songbook with DINAH, OH, LADY BE GOOD, EXACTLY LIKE YOU and SOLITUDE just a few examples of their repertoire played on this compilation. LOVE'S MELODY, BELLEVILLE and the ever popular NUAGES occupy a rarer jazz concept. DAPHNE is credited to Django and SWING GUITARS indicates a joint Reinhardt/Grappelli composition. A couple of vocals by Freddy Taylor on SHINE and AFTER YOU'VE GONE contribute another layer to their unique upbeat style which lightly and brightly sounds cleanly keen on this definitive collection.

          5 out of 5 stars Stellar CD!.......2000-07-18

          Django's unique style is unmatched and absolutely fantastic! This CD is short; but the tracks are great. The only that could be better is listening to an original LP recording; hearing the music the way it was meant to be heard. Happy listening to all...I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. :)

          Django's guitar sound is totally unique and outstanding. This CD is short, but the tracks are great. I only wish that I could find a record recording of it to really hear the music the way it was meant to be heard. Happy listening to everyone out there...hope you enjoy it as much as I did. :)
