Django Reinhardt - The Best Of The Broadcast Performances (Reissue)

This 36 track collection draws from live performances recorded in his prime from 1940-1950. Reinhardt's playing is excellent and the bands sympathetic, the guitarist showing himself capable of adapting to changing times in jazz with arrangements that swing, but in a more modern way than his earlier efforts.

A good number of his own compositions are included, along with some popular standards and jazz classics by the likes of Ella Fitzgerald, Duke Ellington, and Fats Waller. Some material goes beyond these boundaries, such as W.C. Handy's 'St. Louis Blues.' Contains extensive liner notes.
