• An aptly titled CD from the gifted gypsy guitarist Dorado Schmitt, who learnt the manouche swing style, epitomised in the playing of Django Reinhardt, from his father and has passed on his skills to his own sons, who appear on this recording along with other members of Dorado's family

• Like Django, Schmitt has overcome a physical challenge to make music of great depth. Aside from a few popular Reinhardt tunes the group -- four guitars, accordion, drums & double bass -- play several of Dorado's own compositions including the sublime and Strayhornesque “Un Si Beau Jour”, a highlight of the disc
