My Grandfather, born in 1909 used to play April Kisses and taught it to me. It's possible that he met Eddie Lang. Grandad played banjo in Harold Arlen's band for a while as did Joe Venuti (violin) JV played a lot w/ Eddie Lang. I was touched ny the authenticity that you bring to this song. Thank you.
Thank you very much. I believe there are too many good stories buried like your grandfather’s to be heard to next generation. It is nearly impossible to know early jazz history in my country unless I read jazz history books written in English. Eddie Lang and Joe Venuti are my heros which are almost forgotten in today’s world. But without them, Jazz history can be diffenet. I respect them deeply and want to keep them alive for today’s world. 😊
One of your finest videos. Glad to see you back with a full screen. Excellent stage setting. Beautiful guitar, beautiful tune, beautifully played. Thank you from Southern Oregon USA.
Like time travel. Everything is fantastic in this video. Your look, ambience, mood, sound, cool, relaxing playing, light, gust everything is so cool. ❤
Eddie Lang would've been proud!
I hope so!!!! He must have been better than we thought!!!
If only Eddie could hear this too ... He would love your rendition just like the rest of us do!
I wanna meet him in person🤩And, wanna see his action and strings. Probably, that was so different from what we think the guitar should be!!!😅💦
Nice...
Beautiful 👏👏👏
That was lovely 🙏

Nicely done. Who is the guitar Luthier ? thank you.
I believe SUMI.
Thanks for your comment!! Yeah, this is made by Sumi!!! Looks and sounds more vintage, although I had some L-5s including 16inch!!

Made by Japanese Luthier, his name is Sumi. He is famous for mandolin at first.
