Excellent music!! I saw/heard Chet Atkins when I was a kid living near Dallas, TX. He was amazing to watch. I've never heard of Gypsy music...what exactly does that mean? Just curious. xo

Optimistic Cro!
The difference between an optimist and a pessimist, is that the optimist enjoys himself whilst waiting for the inevitable! I AM that optimist!
This is a daily, optimistic, 'photos and comments' blog. I make no judgements (only occasionally), just notes. If you wish to comment in any way at all, please feel free. Everything and everyone (except the obdurate and dictatorial) is very welcome.
I was born just south of London, but for the past 50 years I've lived in S W France. I am a painter by profession, and writer by desire. Lady Magnon and I live between an ancient cottage in a tiny village in perfectly tranquil French countryside, and a bijou townhouse in Brighton UK. In France we have plenty of fruit trees, all situated amongst a view that takes the breath away, in the UK we have a handkerchief sized patio. We also have a Border Collie called Billy. I try to treat our planet with respect, and encourage others to do likewise (without preaching).
Contentment is a glass of red, a plate of charcuterie, and a slice of good country bread. Perfect!
Nice song, and made Amanda smile from across the room when I played it.

She would be great to paint. Very strong features.

ReplyDeleteIt's that French Gypsy sound. Django was still the best.

ReplyDeleteI think it just refers to that era of Jazz in Paris with The Hot Club de Paris; Django Reinhardt, Stephane Grappelli, et al. Lovely swing jazz.
DeleteThanks, Cro. I'll look some of it up. It's always a great day when I learn something new. xo
