Really been digging Django Reinhardt. The fact that he played all of his solos with just two fingers is unbelievable. It has to make you wonder whether having those other two for solo-ing would have actually made his music any better. I feel like within the ragtime gypsy style, the kinds of runs and hammer-on type stuff that Chuck Berry busted out a few years later just wouldn’t have fit quite right. That said, he can play ridiculously fast with those two fingers.
