Al Coholic Posted October 15, 2008 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 The good news is, you're not the only one.. every self respecting guitarist must at least appreciate a Django Rheinhard, and he is in my top 3 all time guitar favourites. However you will find that active playing interest in a style tends to be inversely proportional to how hard it is to play. Hence the abundance of punk/rock bands. Let's face it, solos without distortion so that you can actually hear the fingering details, 13th, ma6/9, diminished chords, scales other than pentatonic....

scottyboy Posted October 15, 2008 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 guitar techniques does bits and pieces on gypsy jazz now and again. there's a lot of stuff on youtube; some of it is probably good if you can be bothered to dig around. As Al Coholic said you will be hard pressed to find people wanting to play jazz on this forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigsby Posted October 15, 2008 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 I like listening to all that Django stuff, never really tried to play it but would have probably been up for trying.But I'm moving to Edinburgh in two days time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*Nina* Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 Not sure if this thread is still alive but I love both gypsy music and jazz, not just guitar but ideally as many instruments added as possible. I'm a singer/songwriter myself and play guitar as well (rythm, not lead), and would be up for jamming if anyone is interested. Cheers!
