[Dixielandjazz] Bireli Lagrene

[Ed Danielson]

Steve Barbone posted the schedule for Iridium, the New York nightclub, and 
one of the acts was this:

May 11-15 BIRELI LAGRENE GYPSY JAZZ
A Tribute To Django Reinhardt

Lagrene is a French gypsy guitarist, prominent in fusion music circles, but 
influenced by Django Reinhardt and quite capable of playing standards and 
pre-bop music.  His newest CD, "Move," sounds like Django-meets-Bechet... it 
really swings!
