Hello friends, Guten tag (I'm learning German),
Does anybody know of any site or forum where I can engage myself in discussions about the great three fingered Jazz maestro Django R?
I'm afraid I know of no others that this one...
A truly inspiration guitarist, and one who changed Jazz playing, and even guitar playing forever. If only I could find any of his recordings!

His name is "Musenfreund" - friend of the muses.
Museenfreund means "friend of museums" :lol:
Irrenanstalt means "madhouse"
Many German words are concatenations - "irren" means to err, go wrong, to be crazy, "Anstalt" is an institution, so institution for the crazy. Although internet is not that far wrong :lol: :lol: :lol:
I started with nothing - and I've still got most of it left.
Did you know that the word "gullible" is not in any dictionary?

If you have'nt already seen it you will be amazed at this video of Django.

How does he do that run?
I'll skip the video. Have to download a plugin for a proprietary player called "ViralVideo." That's got bad mojo.
"A cheerful heart is good medicine."
I don't blame you for being wary. The name sounds scary. ViralVideo is the name of the selection of clips on "IFilm" because they are infectous. You can't stop watching them. It plays on Windows Media Player on my computer. You can choose between WMP, RealPlayer, and Quicktime under "Change Video Preferences". I've watched several times, and no spyware or any other problems have occurred.
Anyway, Django's playing, especially the run he does down the entire length of the fretboard toward the end of the clip made my jaw drop the first time I saw it. It is totally awesome, at least to me.
Later Dude,
I just did another search of newsgroups for Django and found another site with several videos i've never seen.

What I've watch Is great. Gotta go now and watch the rest of them.
Later Dude,
Oh, also Ricochet, The clip that's on Viral Video is on this site too if you would feel better watching it from there.
Hey GuitarGombak,
I've only breifly scanned it, but this looks promising.
For some reason this link takes me to the middle of of the page. You might want to scroll to the top.
Later Dude,
