One of the best collectios is the Mosaic Box Set. It is a 6 cd collection from 1936-1948 and the quality is excellent. It is still in print and cost 95.00. Go to www.mosaicrecords.com for more information.
Thanks for the tip Rec. I love Django. Any suggestions about best recordings by his counterpart, Stephane Grapelli?
There is an insanely good deal on Django Reinhart: two boxed sets, one of five discs, the other of four, on the English JSP label. Expertly remastered by Ted Kendall, and sold at a budget price. Im not sure they're available in America, but you can order them through Amazon.com England's site. Even with shipping from England, an outlandish bargain.
I'm a huge fan! I really enjoy "Swing 39: Jazz in Paris." (It was supposed to be "Jazz in Berlin," but ol' Adolf didn't take too kindly to gypsys.) It's sonically decent, considering the vintage, and the performance is superb. In many cases, there are two versions of the same song, so this disc would be for someone who wants to hear Django experiment and venture a little bit.
