I transcribed it a few days ago with the clarinet part that, curiosly, no guitarist plays as far as I know (everyone play the Rosenberg's version of this part). I'm actually working on playing it on time and clearly. You are right bro : my hands hurt and I'm sweating, but my daughter love it more than any songs I played since her birth (she is almost 2), and if you could see her jumping around like a flea, laugh and dance with her soft toys... ahah, she really like it! 😂
Django was unique we will never see his like again. Even the top guitarists spend a lot of time and effort learning and perfecting solo,s he just pulled out the air and improvised and every solo is a perfect musical statement
Everytime I hear Django, I can't help but think "HOW!??!?" He was truly a once-a-generation master - The right hand dexterity, how clean each note sings even at this crazy tempo, the creativity behind his improvised lines, truly a very special guitarist.
Yeah, I'm playing it actually in order to make a cover, it's all about accuracy, in the theme as in de sweeping part. In the clarinet part (which is comonly played by guitarists who play that song), it's accuracy AND speed, it is the "not piece of cake" part of the song, if you ask me. 😁
I believe that this piece talks about the atrocities and the absurdity of the World War II. That's what I see what I litsen to this mechanical and surrealistic music. Just like the paintings of Max Ernst. Terryfying in its beauty
From the Wikipedia article, *this piece* was supposed to be "acceptable" by the Nazis. I don't understand that statement, or the quote that appears right after that statement, in the Wikipedia article. I get a very "Raymond Scott" feel from this piece of music. Very patterned, methodical, almost mechanical images.
This makes me think VERY much of Raymond Scott - his studies of music provided so many recognisable tunes, with so many that got widespread exposure through Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies cartoons (like Bugs Bunny cartoons from the 30s on). I hear the same rhythmic melodies ass is The Factory, Powerhouse, etc. I wonder if either had heard the other?
@@georgealderson4424 Heh... I watched a lot of Bugs Bunny cartoons when I was young. I got exposed to music too them, mainly classical and jazz - and hence, the Raymond Scott. Find "Powerhouse" for a good start. For more modern references, the Squirrel Nut Zippers have used both RS and DR references in their music. Fun listening!
@@colfaxschuyler3675 I first listened to a version of this song by Frank Vignola a day or so ago, and thought the same thing. I was curious about the relative timing of this song and Powerhouse.
Your link in the description the full album of this has been taken down. Will it go back up? This playlist is a good stand-in, but full length removals come just before the fall. Is this channel going to get copyright erased, too?

IS just not fair that we don't have more video of Django. Would love to see him play this song.

once in several generations, near as I can tell!

Tony Iommi brought me here. I am amazed.❤

This makes me think of George Gerwishin's music fir some reason

@@colfaxschuyler3675 Thanks. I have just listened to Powerhouse while I was having a baked potato. Both were good!

Why does this remind me of Raymond Scott? Did they ever meet, perhaps when Django was in the US?

I think primus and claypool must've listened to this
Primus sucks!
yes.
That on edge feeling, definitely
You're the guy from the hamburger train, right?
Primus, Greg Ginn (Black Flag), Captain Beefheart, Zappa...
