Stephen Chambers Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Lovely stuff Randy, I absolutely adore that tune - you just need Django Reinhardt on guitar with you, like Stéphane Grappelli did! Mind you, Rina Ketty made a lovely job of singing it too... J'attendrai, le jour et la nuit,J'attendrai toujours, ton retour, J'attendrai, car l'oiseau qui s'enfuitVient chercher l'oubli dans son nid.Le temps passe et court,En battant tristement dans mon coeur si lourdEt pourtant j'attendrai ton retour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephen Chambers Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 (edited) here is the Django/Grappelli clip Yes, it's said to be the only film clip of Django with a soundtrack and I think they only recorded it once otherwise, at Decca, London on 1st February 1938. That was under the original Italian title as "Tornerai" and with Stéphane on piano: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p8EzuGIPHnI "Tornerai" had been an Italian mega-hit for Aldo Visconti in 1937; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SHvWKkDaWE8 before becoming a French one for Rina Ketty as "J'attendrai" (with French lyrics written by Louis Poterat) in 1938; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ctU8sVUwF4Q Edited November 18, 2014 by Stephen Chambers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was on YouTube a while back then disappeared. Thankfully, it's back! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
