Django Reinhardt - The Classic Early Recordings In Chronological Order - 5 CD Set
The music on this CD set has been restored from the best available 78 copies, which have been carefully checked for pitch by the sound engineer Ted Kendall. His work is so good that it can literally be said that Reinhardt has never been heard with such presence before. The guitarist's fingers can be heard moving across the fingerboard, and there is a new resonance as he plucks each note. Kendall has cleared away audio rubble... and has brought out sounds which haven't been heard since the recordings were made in the studio.
