Fate Video, Django Reinhardt meets Paul Whiteman.
This is a video shot last summer, I thought I would share it and hope you like it.
"It was fate when I first met you" or more commonly known as "fate" by Byron Gay, recorded by Paul Whiteman and many other greats including Django Reinhardt.
Best , Charlie

Great video, but especially love the guitar solo entrance. So much attitude, it's like you're saying "LISTEN UP because I'm about to lay some pipe"
Good stuff Charlie!
I Have erased my previous comment...
...either I’m a really careless reader or Charlie has edited his original comment to explain the reference to Fate....

Yes I edited the post, for some reason you couldn't see the song title if not directly from youtube. Thank you guys!
Anyone have a link to Django's recording? I can't find it on Youtube. thx
Well then I will too since it would just confuse. Isn't it nice Will that we can just take it back as politicians like to say these days?
You are going to find it incredibly difficult to find a copy of Django playing this tune anywhere. The closest you will probably get is him playing “Fat”!!!
Here is Paul Whitman’s version

“Mexico will pay for my new Holo guitar!“
Oh... sorry, Mexico!
