He is the goat, right /mu/? European gypsies took jazz

I like his music quite a bit, too bad all of it sounds like it was recorded in a potato

>>74267345
Of course. He rendered almost all subsequent gypsy jazz obsolete. European free jazz was influential too.

What do you expect a band of gypsies from the late 30's and 40's could afford? Not that recording techniques were very mature at that point in time either.

I'm aware of this, but it makes it hard for me to enjoy his music, nice trips btw

>>74267345
So much that the kids back then would tape their fingers together just to try to learn his style of guitar playing

>>74267735
I guess it just shows that guitar is all about speed, he moves his fingers constantly even if it isn't up tempo playing, his leaps are so fast it's crazy

>>74267345
What other level did he take it to?

>complaining about production quality of jazz in the 30's

Modern music has spoiled people

A level accessible for people getting into music.
