You need to define what prime is in this case. I think it’s fair to share the entire story. I have all his recordings available in the U.S. I would hate to drag him down, as of 2024 the latest info is he is clean and has people around him who genuinely care about his well being. Adulation, in this case never did balance with accountability. He understands his reputation covers everything. Putting this video up without context shorts him of respect. It denies Manouche, and its practitioners the fame they deserve as well. Buy the records/cds. Help the artist. In this case the players almost never got paid for their skill.
Just fast playing is what Jimmy Rosenberg does.. the other Rosenbergs really made actual music! Gypsy jazz isn't just about ramming as much notes through a beat as possible..
Oh the irony. “It don’t mean a thing if it ain’t got that swing.” Also, this is just a video of a solo. The rythm guitar is not shown, but it makes up half of the sound. Technically impressive.. But that’s all.
My man playing like this and didn't even need to roll up his sleeve
I don't play acoustic but i think we only roll up our sleeve cuz we need to mute the string when we play with distortion
Amazing
That's some mean swing...✅
Excellent.... beautiful guitar
Gypsy jazz lives on 🎶
His trio album with Debarre and Lagrène is a jewel ! This tune on it of course
what's the name of thew album?

The Limehouse Blues video with Frank Vignola is outrageous!
Great performance, Django would be proud of him! 👍👍
Excellent 👍😎
I hope he is doing well...genius boy
Jimmy in his prime

Sounds wonderful!
Django Rheinhardt did exactly that with only 2 Fingers on his FRETTING HAND!!!
I watched a doc on gypsy guitarists many years ago. They start them very young. One small town had more guys like this than our entire nation.
I heard this guy was taught by Corey Feldman, can anyone confirm?
Incredible how easy he makes it....
Django did it with two fingers.
Hey, you should show frank vignolia’s solo also: it’s a and hot as fuck and he plays some fire chord shit in his solo that is insane
the Rosenberg 's brothers..they are very well known in France
That pinky is just there for moral support.
Not a very used finger by gipsies. Django had only two...
@@SolalBarca Yeah. Huge Django fan. Kinda why I said it. I was kidding you my friend.
Sinti!!!!
Guitar looks very familiar…. Something Reinhardt played often.
Its a selmer guitar

Why did I see this and think "it's gotta be a Levi Transcription"?
One of Jimmy's easier tunes to play ;)
Jimmy is King of the Gypsy players.
Its just sad, he has a continuing battle with his demons
Never uses his pinky playing the solos. Wow.
I keep saying” want to get better? Learn to play gypsy jazz”
Hotel room session. Those guys were on fire
I can’t listen that fast!
That’s a shame
That's funny... gotta use that line for shredders
I can Guthrie playing this but cleaner...if that's possible but it's Guthrie 😅
Yea I played that last night when I was drunk and passing on democrats sign
The best part is that this kid probably doesn't even know what a major scale is
A shame that this talented young man started using drugs and saw his life go down the drain.

Pinky not interested unless playing a chord
Don't forget that al lot of these techniques come from Django, and he only had 2 fingers.
@@selliantuttimusi6735 good point
Wtf
Compare this playing to metal shredders where each note is more meaningless than the last.
Django Reinhardt wanna be???
