Django Reinhardt was a Romani-French jazz guitarist and composer. Born on January 23, 1910 in Liberchies, Belgium, he became known for his incredible talent as a musician. Reinhardt's artistic abilities extended beyond music; he was also an accomplished painter and enjoyed activities such as fly fishing and billiards. He had a notable career and left a lasting impact on the jazz genre.

Reinhardt sadly passed away on May 16, 1953 in Fontainebleau, Seine-et-Marne, France due to cerebral hemorrhage. His legacy lives on through his family, including his brother Joseph Reinhardt and his son Henri "Lousson" Baumgartner-Reinhardt. He is also remembered as the grandfather of David Reinhardt.

Throughout his life, Django Reinhardt collaborated with various artists who shared his passion for music. Some similar artists include Stéphane Grappelli, Charlie Christian, The Rosenberg Trio, Angelo DeBarre, Sidney Bechet, Dorado Schmitt, Fats Waller,Biréli Lagrène,Joscho Stephan,Yorgui Loeffler,Benny Goodman Sextet,Wes Montgomery,and many more.

BMG Rights Management is a multinational label that was established as a joint venture between Bertelsmann AG and Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. It operates under the name BMG Chrysalis in the USA, UK, and Sweden, following its acquisition of Chrysalis plc. In 2012, Bertelsmann bought out Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co.'s share of the company after an unsuccessful attempt to acquire EMI's recorded-music assets. While BMG Rights Management is the successor of the original Bertelsmann Music Group (BMG), it has undergone significant changes and now operates independently with no connection to its former incarnation.

Stunning quality remastered by Francis Dreyfus. Using 24 bit remastering and achieving a restoration that is nearly unbelievable; Dreyfus has given us Django like we have never heard him before. From recordings done in the confines of the Quintet Of The Hot Club Of France in the late 30s to more obscure settings including Reinhardt in the mid 40s on electric guitar; this album provides listeners a superb opportunity to hear one of the greatest ever with a new set of ears.
