So far, this is the only film of Django Reinhardt playing guitar

and didn't like being filmed. I don't blame him
It's amazing. Django is a jazz guitar legend. You would think there would beAT LEAST one more video of him playing guitar. This is it!!!!
There's nothing else substantial that I could find on YouTube.

Bits and pieces of this performance pasted into other videos.
Oh well.... Better to have this than nothing.
I never realized that creepy looking guy in the group was Django's brother Joseph




"Joseph "Nin-Nin" Reinhardt (March 1st 1912 - February 7th 1982) 
If anyone was born in someone else's shadow it was Joseph Reinhardt. Brother to Django Reinhardt 
he selflessly played a rhythm guitarist's role for his more famous brother, 
even though he was a great guitarist and composer himself. "

MY COMMENT:

They called him "Nin-Nin"???
