# 1 - Louis, but I don't know the tune. Don't need to, it's Louis!
# 2 - Not Louis, and I still don't know the tune. I'll assume that it's Django, but I hope it's not. Not in the mood for this kind of thing right now, it sounds pretty gross, actually, but that's just me at this moment.
#3
oh HELL yeah.

Toots, Buff, Bus, and Jerry rockin' the section politely but rightly. Fletcher Henderson as played by Benny Goodman, that's a very real thing, hello!
#5 - I heard Les Paul right away, but the cut itself was unknown to me, had to hunt, but found it. Hello Joe Venuti, and I tell people, don't sell Kay Starr short, that woman could deal. I'd buy this...hell, I just did, thanks!
#6 - Django & Ellington live. Somehow this was among the first Django I heard, probably on some crazy back alley Ellington lp. Very simpatico those two, and check Django out, getting all hip and shit, that guy...
#7 - And this time https://www.discogs.com/Django-Reinhardt-Le-Quintette-Du-Hot-Club-De-France-Avec-Hubert-Rostaing-On-The-Sunny-Side-Of-The-St/release/5390085
#8 - Diddy Galippy on the Stuff(y) side of the street, with his bebop joe carrol on parade.
#9 - almost a Trenier?
#10 - No idea
#11 - That trio, Gene Krupa, eh, whatever, but Benny & Teddy always fir, from then until the end
#12 No, not Bob Wills, wrong "Western", but swing, yes. https://www.discogs.com/Django-Reinhardt-St%C3%A9phane-Grappelli-Eddie-South-Lady-Be-Good/release/7516952
#13 - No idea
# 14 - Sounds like Benny's band recorded all wrongly. But that tenor player is really familiar. Oh shit, that's Shaw..and that's Buddy Rich, with Georgie Auld on tenor. Who mastered this?
#15 - Eric Clapton?
Hell, you kept me up past my bedtime, starting with Hawk, Hawk was a motherfucker, not that Louis wasn't, but Hawk, geez, that one hooked me right in, then Benny, then Kay Starr, hell, I gotta go to bed. But this was some tasty stuff, hooked me for longer than I had planned, thank you!
