    Lucas I have the same disability as Django with only the first 2 fingers available. This gave me a ton of inspiration after having to relearn the guitar all over again since my accident in 1971. It's much harder for follow Django due to the quality of film and the quick changing chords, etc. This really helped me immensely. Thanks a bunch!

  • @Vintage_geek
    @Vintage_geek 4 года назад +75

    So... there's a few corrections to be made here, though i definitely agree he was the greatest jazz guitarist to ever live (and one of the best guitarists of any style), as well as the very first iconic Guitar Hero.
    Django was not illiterate, though his literacy was very basic (there is a letter from him to Stephane Grappelli during the USA tour with Duke Ellington) in 1946 that shows that very clearly. Later in life, he was very aware of musical theory, and though he wasn't proficient in musical notation, he was composing a very sophisticated Mass with the help of friends.
    Last but not least he didn't play only with 2 fingers, though he had very limited use of the burned fingers. He usually employed them to pin down the lower strings in certain chord shapes he favored for chord soloing, for instance.
    (I've been researching the life and legacy of Django for the last 22 years and I am currently the administrator of the tribute page to him on Facebook).

    My first guitar teacher told me the story of Django back in the 90s. I was into thrash metal and punk. He told me to go to the library and check out his recordings. Best lesson ever. Django made me rethink a lot of what I thought I knew. Made me look at the guitar and how I played differently. He is the ultimate guitar player of all time! You did good man. Really puts things into perspective for those of us with 4 fingers.... and what our potential actually could be.

      You can pluck the strings perfectly fine, and you can play like Django with your fretting hand. Even f you don’t develop the level of dexterity that other players have, you’ll be able to do something different. You’ll be forced to play differently, and you’ll probably play differently than any other guitarists, so that even if you can’t do what they can, you have something different.

Also they ruined that symbolism anyway, you still hear the guitar riffs during meaningful moments while playing as Abby, which has nothing to do with her. Last of Us 2 was a great game in all respects except its writing direction, which was simply so terrible everything else great was harder to enjoy because of it. Credit to the writers and artists who still put all the effort in anyway, may their effort stand as testament to getting executives out of art and entertainment.

    Frettinghand amputee over here.. Recently lost my middlefinger and severely damaged my ringfinger in a chainsaw accident at work.. I play the most with index and little finger now with some thumb for the upper strings.. First I was like f****ck, but I've learned some quite interesting voicings/intervals for myself and my playing got waayyy more creative.. This opens up the understanding of the fretboard even more, I'm actually thankful learning this in a weird kind of way.. Your video gave me goosebumps man!!! It's some huge inspiration TY

    I heard the name DjR many times. Everyone from Chet Atkins to young Josh Turner mentions his influence. But I had never heard of his impediment. Things are now much clearer. He was amazing. As are you, my friend. Your videos are such good medicine.

    My friend who's a year younger than me and hasn't been in jazz class yet and he is so obsessed with van Halen and thinks that he is the best guitarist to ever walk the earth. And since he knows how to play eruption he thinks he's better than everyone else even though he doesn't know basic chord forming. He's gonna be dead in jazz this year.

    • @ihave_noidea
      @ihave_noidea 5 лет назад +3

      He'll adapt or just say fuck it and ignore the 7 and 9 chords like i did my first year of jazz band. Its laziness if he doesnt eventually learn it. I hate jazz but enjoyed the challenge it presented, just tell him to view it like that.

      @@ihave_noidea my first year I didnt particularly love jazz but now I'm probably going to a music school now that I've started. I love jazz now, and my first year was a little difficult but I started practicing a lot more on actual important things instead of fancy finger work. I practice almost 2-3 hours everyday now

      @@seanbrennan5192 Lol i was worried for him but since he started being a jerk I stopped helping him, and helping him was basically bringing him to the band room in our free hour and trying to teach him something, but instead him just playing a bunch of riffs from songs in the 70s-90s. He didn't even play the full song he'd play like one part and repeat it until I said I was leaving if he didn't stop. I'd much rather be working on some jazz stuff than dealing with his problems.
