Swinging Gypsy Guitar


I recently caught a documentary on Jimmy Rosenberg, the Dutch - Romany django - style guitar player.

I was in awe at his hand speed & the material, however his turn to narcotics & his father's incarceration & the break up of the family was heartbreaking.

There is really more than one jimi of the guitar.

This was sadly my first exposure to this genre for a long time & I was so glad I watched this powerful film.
