So, so correct here Robin. I'm sure you get stuff like this all the time, but it points to the result of your process and mentality. A few short years after getting into Gypsy Jazz, I saw you play with the 'Robin Nolan Trio' in a small place in Madison, Wisconsin, around 03', give or take a year or two. The depth of energy expressed in that show was really something to behold. It had both of my hands and feet and everything in between moving with numerous rhythms you three were making with the music. It also had be puffing on my tobacco pipe with particular vigor, which certainly disturbed some people around me(good thing indoor smoking has been banned, really). But, I digress. Had you three been reading off of sheets, only a fraction of that emotion and energy would have been in existence that night. Whelp, now, time to obsess over 'In the Hall of the Mountain King' and try to make it swing!
@@GypsyJazzSecrets Yes, that is mysterious. I particularly like Django's elegant electric comping, and the exchange towards the end between him and Rostaing.
Hey Robin long time no talk. This music still rocks and as i have said i always come back to this beautiful music i am learning other styles cos i love the instrument and i quite often apply your thinking to my playing. Thankyou very much mate. Nev
Toni Hostench I highly recommend Polak Gypsy Guitars. I have 2 signature models and soon to release the 3rd ( the Guitar you see in the video) let me know if you’d like more info. Cheers! Robin
It has a Big Spanish feel, just listen to Carlos Santana play, and it is the same note as the flat 7 of E, even though the main body of the chord moves a half step down. Works extremely well after A minor
@@jbowerman50 Yes, thanks. I noticed in a film on South American music that a lot of the guitarists all over that continent play the low F (on the bottom E string) before the E. Makes a groovy dark sound.

I always think it is a rather dark anniversary being celebrated. You are right about dropping the charts.
dingoswamphead check out Django’s Recording with clarinet, a real mysterious vibe

Salut Robin, from Monteal - Chateauguay
Eugenio Capodicasa salut Eugenio! Robin
Anytime I see F7 - E7, I have a tendency to use F6
Jon Bowerman works Jon!
