  Hi Shawn,
  
  Before it was played by Django Reinhardt, 'Ménilmontant' was a song by Charles Trénet. I don't know of any transcription of DR solo. But I have the music sheet of the original song. I will attach a .mp3 of the song.
  By the way you don't indicate which DR version of Ménilmontant you are looking for (the Rome sessions I guess).
  
  I hope this helps
  
  Best regards

  Thank you very much Francois Ravez, at least I now have the melody to this song. I have been looking for this for a long time...I appreciate it very very much! This helps quite a bit.

  I finally decided to do a transcription of Django's solo on Menilmontant from Djangology '49. It's going to be quite a rough copy (ie. not 100% accurate I am sure). I am doing it in powertab format so anyone can manipulate it, and I was wondering if anyone would like to review it and make any changes to get the transcription as accurate as possible? Maybe a sort of group collaborative effort.
  
  Any takers? I am about half way through with the solo as of now.
