Thanks very much to Charlie, Guenter, Steve, and Robert. I very much appreciate your listening and your comments.

The whole range of Gypsy Jazz music really brings to the forefront the idea of chops in the service of the song. The players in this genre are the original shredders, and it is heartening to see the number of current guitar heroes who acknowledge the Django Reinhardt influence and inspiration. The music serves as a great example that high energy music need not be electric!
