Thank you so much for putting me on to the Hot 
Club of Cowtown.   Obviously, a takeoff on the Hot 
Club of France, -- it's quintet starring Stephane 
Grappelli & Django Reinhardt.

The tune is one of Django's most famous.   
Stephane was probably one of the 3 or 4 greatest 
jazz violinists that ever lived, and Chet Atkins 
names Django as THE most influential guitarist of 
all times!!

Altho I'm sure they play a lot of Western Swing at 
the club, this isn't it!
