The record
Django Reinhardt and Stéphane Grappelli over a wall of rhythm guitar -- Joseph Reinhardt, Pierre Ferret, Roger Chaput -- with Louis Vola's bass holding the floor. Horns turn up in the credits too: Arthur Briggs and Pierre Allier on trumpet, Alix Combelle on tenor and clarinet, Eugène d'Hellemmes on trombone. Grappelli carries both violin and piano. Prestige gathered the sides as PRST 7614 in 1969.
