Review
A second volume of Django Reinhardt issued by the Fuel label features American Popular Songs, for the most part, over 16 tracks. There's a good dose of swing, blues, a little boogie-woogie, bolero-tinged music and straight-ahead standards as you would expect. The best single cut might be "Air Mail Special," while the tail-end of the CD has some basic Reinhardt originals like "Impromptu," "Just for Fun," and "Blues." Not essential or comprehensive, but a sliver of sweet cake signifying a taste of the important music Reinhardt brought to the world during the European based Golden Age of Jazz. ~ Michael G.
