Rocky Gresset Django Centenaire show on Monde TV channel 5

Bob Holo

(Thanks Ivan for the heads up on this)

Rocky Gresset on Monde's TV5's jazz show commemorating Django's Centenaire.

This guy has a wonderful touch. He has a near perfect mix of archtop & acoustic style... He can make that big Gibson jazzbox cry - and then hop on his gypsy guitar and light-it-up old-school style or do the new French school (ala Selmer607) style. I really hope he comes to Djangofest in the near future. He is a rare talent. He got signed by Dreyfus a few months ago and has been doing some really phenomenal work.

Bob Thanks for posting this. The guitar sounds great!!!! I love that he and Noe switch back and forth between selmer style guitars and archtops ( my two guitar geek loves). They play some gorgeous L-5's by the way.
