1937 version - both Reinhardt and Grappelli at their absolute best, it gets me every time.

Thank you Mr. Reinhardt for your wonderful music and for inspiration. You see, back in Birmingham UK, a young left handed guitarist lost the tips of his fretting fingers in an manufacturing accident. He considered quitting and was depressed about the accident until a friend gave him a copy of a Reinhardt album. Inspired that a man could play like mad with only two fingers the young Tony Iommi decided to keep playing. His band Earth changed their name to 'Black Sabbath' and you know the rest. I picked up the guitar because of Iommi so I too am in debt to Django's perseverance.
