Bøker av Michael Dregni

Django Reinhardt was arguably the greatest guitarist who ever lived, an important influence on Les Paul, Charlie Christian, B B King, Jerry Garcia, Chet Atkins, and many others. Capturing the extraordinary life and times of one of the great musicians of the twentieth century, this work offers a portrait of this great guitarist.

Michael Dregni expertly traces the development of Gypsy Jazz not through straight musical history, but instead in a fascinating travelogue and detective story, following its birth with Django and its subsequent legacy, including all of the famous guitarists who have followed in Django's footsteps-Bireli Lagrene, Boulou Ferre, Dorado Schmitt, and others.
