That's really cool! I did a similar transcription of his version of Ou Es Tu Mon Amour with the solo and accompaniment behind Grappelli's solo which was really fun to do but I found it hard to be sure exactly what he was doing on the accompaniment because it is with a full band.

Which album is that transcription from?

Thanks

Dario Napoli

Thanks man!
This is from the album Django in Rome, 1949-1950, Disc C.
So true, on both ends (lead and comp) there's so much to learn from Django, I also did the Out of Nowhere duet and it's just poetry...
Did you post a link to your "Ou Es Tu Mon Amour" example?

Thank you for the videos. I'll be finding them very useful I'm sure.

Glad you enjoyed it!

The version of Ou Es Tu that I worked on was with a full band (incl. piano). Is there a duet recording out there somewhere?

I think I posted the transcription of the solo a while back. I'll see if I can find it. I didn't transcribe the accompaniment or make a video. I've never tried to video my playing before since I don't think it's very good but maybe I'll try and see if it's worth posting.
