Thumbs Up if you heard this on the catwalk above the Tea Garden in Bioshock 1 ;)

Thank you, Bioshock

I like to listen to this song while going through old photos. Reminds me of simpler times.

If that's Django, I shall now part the sea of idiots and walk through it without a drop of ignorance touching my robe.

Jitterbug Waltz is a 1942 jazz composition by Fats Waller and His Rhythm. It was also was recorded by Django Reinhardt with Stéphane Grappelli, Eric Dolphy, [1]Erroll Garner, and Chet Atkins. - wikipedia (and cited in a book about one of the members of Django's accompaniment)

I really like this recording no matter who it is. The beat is steady and swinging. Far too many interpretations are all over the map with the beat and play havoc with the note signatures. Pyeng Threadgill does a very sweet version of this song.She keeps it simple but still stretches is artfully. As far as musicdoq's comment that the strumming is barely adequate., well I don't think that is fair or accurate. He 's is accompanying and doing it very musically,not showing off!!!

You have no idea how long I have searched for this !!!

gracias bioshock por los buenos momentos

Such a joyful sweet mellow vibration! Thanks so much for posting this!☺

I always found weird these songs were credited to DJango when they sound not very Django-like. Most likely the Faux Frenchmen, the mostly unsung heroes of the Bioshock 1 soundtrack!

This is a modern day tribute duo called "The Faux Frenchmen" a swing ensemble who are Paul Patterson on violin, Brian Lovely on guitar, who are based in Cincinnati, Ohio. The Faux Frenchmen are a group that specializes in playing the 1940's "Hot Club" style swing pioneered by Django Reinhardt.

HE TACKLES SONGS THAT NEED 10 STRONG FINGERS. AMAZING ,TALENTED MAN. NICE WE HAVE THIS TO WATCH AND LISTEN TO. THANKS A MILLION.

Hell yea thanks for posting!!!

Thanks BioShock :)

This is an awesome version of this song. I wish it didn’t cut off

I love this guy, have allot of his earlier stuff on my Ipod.

GRAN INTERPRETACION MAGNIFICA

This song is in Bioshock, In the level Arcadia

el mas grande!!!

@geroen : I'm not 100% sure, but it does turn out in lastfm search engine and it was named as such in the official bioshock soundtrack

@OrganGrinderLola Probably Stephane Grappelli on violin. They recorded quite a lot together.

Stéphane Grappelli was the one who put Django on the commercial map and was credited as being one of a few who could put up with his flamboyance behaviour and tardiness.

@OrganGrinderLola : If I knew I would have included the information. If someone does find out and shows me a reliable source, ill be more than happy to include it in the description and title

@elliotcheely : Thanks for the reply!

Django Reindhardt great musician

@WawauAdlerJazz Hey, I do recognize your name from the "Jazz Manouche" volumes. Your work is great! Greetings from Germany.

they have should pick thise on in the game Bioshock 2

I think everyone wants to know who it is, which album to get, and where to get it. Please! TY

There are some comments about the authenticity of this recording,like if it's not Django it's nothing. Well I have news for you doubters, who the hell cares?? It's very nicely done , very listenable, musically elegant and I don't a damn who played it because it swings; Quick trying to define things from a very limited viewpoint. There were lots of great guitar players, not just Django.

Is this Fats Waller? It really sounds like that’s Fats Waller!

Would love to hear these tracks without them being cut off at the end...

Yupp! BEST Level. I think :)

Its most likely Grappelli. Sounds like his phrasing. They played together on so many great recordings.

Game recognizes game.

Beginning sounds like a lofi song about to go hard

Stephane Grappelli, I suppose. He co-founded the Quintette du Hot Club with Django Reinhardt which was Gypsy Belgian.

I've heard that once he switched from Musette to jazz Django was reluctant to play anything in 3/4 time so it makes me wonder too, I like it though!

You should check out the 52 disc box set of Django music on Integrale. He played many waltzes.

Une chose est certaine et ce n'est un secret pour personne, ce n'est pas Django Reinhardt, ni Stéphane Grappelli d'ailleurs ! Ce n'est pas Eddie Lang et Joe Venuti non plus. Les seuls enregistrements originaux enregistrés par Django Reinhardt présents dans Bioshock sont "La Mer (Beyond the Sea)" et "Chasing Shadows". Le style musical général et le rythme joués pour cet enregistrement sont bien trop "modernes", en tout cas selon moi. J'ai la malheureuse impression qu'on ne saura véritablement jamais qui a enregistré ces titres additionnels attribués à Django Reinhardt ("It Had to Be You", "Jitterbug Waltz", "Liza" et "Please Be Kind"). La théorie la plus vraisemblable semble être la participation, de près ou de loin, volontaire ou non, du groupe américain "The Faux Frenchmen", connu pour leur formation musicale rendant hommage à Django Reinhardt et au quintette du Hot Club de France. Pourquoi l'équipe de développement de la série de jeu vidéo Bioshock ont décidé de mettre ces enregistrements plutôt que les enregistrements originaux de Django Reinhardt ? Pourquoi (s'il s'agit réellement des "The Faux Frenchmen") ne sont-ils pas crédités sur les génériques ou les listes officielles des bandes son originales ? En tout cas, je trouve que ces titres sont très réussis et le guitariste soliste comme le violoniste rendent un très bel hommage à Django Reinhardt et Stéphane Grappelli. L'essentiel est là d'après moi, ce sont de très jolies musiques avec un excellent jeu vidéo.

Grappelli did a version with Toots Thielemans, a renowned harmonica player, in a similar rhythm, for what it's worth, but now I'm 100% positive this isn't Django. His son, Babik, has a few live recordings floating around too, but I don't think this is one of them either, given the stale violin playing.

hey hayenmill, it is based on Fats' song. this is Django's cover of it, and a really good one at that =)

It's Joe Venuti.

This absolutely sounds like Django and Stephane....

Big Django fan, and I had at first the same doubts that this was him, but I've decided that it ABSOLUTELY IS Django and Grappelli. Fats Waller tune, they did many of his (honeysuckle rose, sheik of araby) No surprise to hear them doing Jitterbug. Give Django a little more credit-the style you're hearing was in full swing, and of course he could play it, he just didn't on his official recordings. this is a jam. Listen to the intro. That's django. violin and guitar? who else would it be?

The Faux Frenchmen - Paul Patterson on violin, Brian Lovely on guitar

The Violinist is none other than Larry Fine

Stephane was 'flamboyant' himself but I'd be very surprised if this was him and Django.Nor does it sound like Venuti and Lang.Somebody like Eddie South with that classical influence or Stuff Smith?

@OrganGrinderLola ...er, there's this guy called Stephane Grappelli... maybe you've heard of him? He's kinda, well, HUGE.

@OrganGrinderLola That's Stephane Grappelli...

hmm. I feel like this sounds too 'straight-ahead' to be Django and Steph. Where are the chromatics and embellishments? And Django NOT playing a little more than just chords? And square on the beat? Doesn't seem like him at all. Django and Stephane split up during WWII and Stephane was known for recording some very light, tea time-ey jazz stuff, in Django's absence. this may be from that archive. That archive, in my opinion, not quite like DJ & Steph together but still great.

So... why did it just cut off? Is there something I'm missing?

Yep Stéphane Grappelli

@OrganGrinderLola Stephan Grapelli

@geroen My ears tell me you're right, not Django.

This is not Django. He never recorded this tune and it sounds nothing like him.

Stephane Grapelli is the violinist. He collaborated with him on a lot of Django's work. This sounds a lot like Grapelli's style, too--very mellow but resonant

NOT even Grappelli! Nor Venuti and most certainly NOT Django!

Any guitarist no matter how good is making a fool of himself trying to pass for Django

Stephane Grappelli was always Django's violinist from what I know, though I'll admit this doesn't really sound like his style

Django also recorded with violinist Eddie South.

@OrganGrinderLola Im guessing Stephane Grappelli as they are in the 'Hot Club de France' band

this is obviously not Grappelli or Django !!

lol

Maybe Stefan Grappelli? He often played with Django.

This is clearly NOT Django and Grappelli. If you would take the time to listen with even half a critical ear, you'd easily see that it's Slash and that dude that plays violin in the Dave Matthews Band. "Would you kindly" listen again and tell me I'm right?

Are you sure this is Django playing? I doubt it, doesn't sound like him and it's not in Django Integrale, maybe it's someone called Reidenhardt;-)?

This is NOT Django Reinhardt! And it is NOT Stephane Grappelli OR Joe Voenuti!

I must add my comments to those already on here, this is not Django, it's not even gypsy style and the guitar playing is nothing like Django and it's not Stef either

it seems one of the students from django...perhaps? donald duck?

I think the violinist might be Stephane Grappelli. They recorded dozens of songs together.

Probably not

Stephane Grappelli, violin

Stephane Grappelli

i didnt like fats version better in comparison... ive always liked django (mafia soundtrack :p)but didnt know he did a cover of this....and yes bioshock brought me here

It isn't Django or Grapelli.

You're not giving the violinist credit. Who is it? Stuff Smith?

Ni Django, ni Grappelli, soyez un peu sérieux...

Yeah, does not sound quite like Django, but quite nice. If only there were a guitar solo, that would settle it.

This is NOT Django!

doesnt swing

I don't believe this is Django or Stephan....nicely played but "too modern" in the chord strumming...pax doug

This doesn't sound at all like Django Reinhardt or Stephan Grappelli.

Doesn't sound like Django...
