Django Reinhardt and Stéphane Grappelli play J'Attendra

Django Reinhardt and Stéphane Grappelli - J'Attendrai - Newsreel 'Jazz Hot' from Stoney Lane on Vimeo.

A short film of the great gypsy jazz guitarist Django Reinhardt, violinist Stephane Grappelli and their band the Quintette du Hot Club de France performing on a movie set in 1938.  The Django Section begins around 2:30.  His two finger fretting technique (he lost most of his left hand in a fire) is amazing.
