My mood stabilizers prevent such stuff. My doctor tells me I'm much happier.

Yes, there is that............

I always liked the Django Djypsey djazz stuff. I also like the way John Jorgenson does it, in fact he had a cd out on it called Franco-American. The rhythm player was none other than Brad Davis! John also played Django in a movie about him.

All that said, I have no desire to play that style. Some times it's more fun to appreciate something from a distance.

Frampton does a couple nice ones(w/Jorgenson, as well) on his "Fingerprints" intrumental album . . .

"Fingerprints" is an excellent album.

He told me at NAMM that he now does all of the recordings for his albums at his home studio using Cubase at 96K.

Jorgenson IS great...It was because of Jorgenson that I went out last weekend back and bought a used Gitane D-500 ($350).

It was after playing with that very nice guitar for a bit that I found the Debarre clip. Well, THAT was certainly good timing!

I'd LOVE to see that Django movie! Anyone know the name of it?

The movie is called Head in the Clouds ("http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0338097/). It has nothing to do with Django. He appeared in one of the nightclub scene, that's all.

Thanks, PA...Oh, well...a movie about Django WOULD be nice though. Guess I have to stick with books and the internet 'til then!
