Hi all,

If you happen to get the Sundance chanel on your TV you might want to  
look for this 1 hour special on Django - it is kind of a fun look at  
the current state of "appreciation" of the Gypsy-Jazz Master in  
Europe, Japan, and parts of the USA. There are a few unusual new  
revelations, and a lot of good music - but the main point is how a  
master from about 60 to 80 years ago can be so miss-understood - even  
by his own "people..."

according to the Sundance website there are no current showings, but  
you should stick this info into your Tivo or whatever...
