Album Notes & Community Reviews

Recorded tragically close to his death, 'Django Reinhardt et ses rythmes' captures the legendary acoustic guitarist transitioning towards modern jazz and the electric instrument. Backed by a more contemporary rhythm section, Django effortlessly absorbs the complex language of bebop while retaining his signature manic, melodic swing. The recordings prove his genius remained remarkably adaptable and completely undiminished at the end of his life.
