However, the 3rd and 4th fingers on his left had were injured/paralyzed in a fire, and this, as you can imagine, greatly effected his playing style. The solos are done with the 1st and 2nd fingers, and he used the paralyzed ones in limited fashion for chords. Even with his injuries, his recordings often sound as if he had 8 or 9 fingers on his left hand. I like his version of this tune - I'm more used to the version by Louis Armstrong. |

jimmunn Aug 15, 2010 - 16:00 | Is it just me, or did Django and the bass player get a beat or two off from each other towards the end? |
