Video Clip: Panique!
Took me a while to learn this one, but I thought I'd post it! After all, I don't think any non-Ferrets have done it.
What a unique and brilliant composition... hard to believe it was done in '46. I'm really hooked on this musette swing stuff the Ferrets were doing with Jo Privat and Gus Viseur. Hope to learn more.

Great playing!
Is that the Sonora??
Can you recommend a few albums of this style??? I have the Gypsy Jazz School CD with Baro's version... I'd love to hear more of that.
Thanks.
Enrique: Yeah that's the Sonora guitar! I've been playing it a lot more lately... it sounds so nice, very dark. It's a tough guitar to play, but what you get out of it is totally worth it.
Manouche Partie http://www.7digital.com/artists/jo-privat/manouche-partie/ (Jo Privat & Baro) has a lot of great and unusual waltzes in it. It also has some of the best arrangements of classics like Dark Eyes, Nuages, and Minor Swing that I've ever heard. I never get tired of listening to that one. I have another collection with Gus Viseur and both Baro and Matelot that is really excellent too. I can't remember the name.
Neill: The backing track is band-in-a-box, believe it or not. I hacked around with the "waltz paris" style and removed all the accordion and extraneous stuff.
Now I just have to talk the band into playing it! They think it's too weird.
I darned near bought that guitar just out of respect for him - one of the most amazing rhythm guitarists out there. It just didn't seem right that it sat there for a couple of months.
Damn, I'm glad you got it Vic - that guitar should be played well!

I think a lot of people passed on it because it doesn't look like a selmer and nobody knows who made it. But hey if it sounds good, who cares what it is. Every time I take it on a gig I get compliments about how good it sounds.
I like the sound of that guitar! Has a nice dry, bright sound which I like. There are probably so many "sleepers'"out there like that.

You are making that guitar sing!!!
I've been curious about musette lately. Wondering if there are any general CD compilations?
