When my dad was health and well he would play this song all the time practicing for his band jams, how I miss him playing and hearing him play downstairs for hours. I would do anything to hear him pick up his guitar to play me a song. I think it’s my turn to play for him.

@StuartwasDrinkell

it's official, you shall now be know as Maestro Alex. Your lessons make me believe I can! Thank you for putting out the transcription, this going to be my main project till I nail it - what you said about the musics humour was impactful, it's full of joy.

@mandolin-george-uk

brilliant - I thought after Louisiana fairy tale - I would hear no more old early jazz - this is fantastic - we are about to play this in a mandolin group so this will be very helpful. Love it. ps the clothes and hat change makes me smile.

What a phenomenal lesson! I adore your chord melody of the main theme. So gorgeous! I remember trying to learn Django's solo on this via a combination of by ear and extraordinarily shitty tabs which were online in the early 2000s. Then, about 5 years later when I got heavy into Gypsy Jazz, and learned Gypsy picking/rest stroke technique, I had to completely re-learn the solo, because I had to finger all of the notes differently to accommodate my new right hand technique. Then, for a fucking third time, I forced myself to re-learn it yet again, because I wanted to play it exactly like Django would have....so I transposed the notes of the solo to the probable '2 finger' fingering that he used with the left hand, only using my index and middle fingers to fret the notes. LOL!! It's pretty incredible how the Django sound really opens up, both sonically and theoretically, when you just use 2 fingers. All those arpeggios just kinda make sense. Like, he played that way because he literally HAD to... I'm not so strict anymore, and use a combo of what's comfortable for me, with a touch Django 2 finger flourishes thrown in haha. One thing that I've not mentioned before, Alex, is how fantastic your video and audio production quality is. It is SO good! And your music room looks like the coziest room in all existence LOL! Thanks for another amazing video!

Great lesson. Especially like the ending chord sequence. And you cleared up some things I 've been playing wrong on this tune.... I know there are a million lessons on Rhythm Changes, but I'm always looking to get ideas on navigating those changes. Or perhaps "There Will Never Be Another You", "April in Paris", "Autumn in New York", "How High the Moon" to name a few. Many thanks.- Matt
