I liked it. Evocative. When you said Django, I did think there would be a whole-lotta-chunkin' goin' on, but I liked it.

Somethin about this style really fits you. It seems so emotive when you play it.

Thanks Miguel for the comment. @Lenador: I've always enjoyed this style of guitar. It's too bad I haven't learned more of it yet. I have to be more disciplined with myself. I remember Todd saying one time about me being lazy in many areas and I think that is fair to say. I get easily side tracked. I think it's time to really get serious.

Very cool. Is there a particular piece by Django that inspired you to write that?

May very well be... Thanks for the comment.

@machopicasso: I should have titled the video as "Django Reinhardt Improvisation #5".. It's not mine.. He wrote that.....

Here is another video in the same style....
