Lulu Swing Recordings

Michael Bauer

I heard Wawau Adler play Lulu Swing at Django in June and really liked the tune. Could anyone recommend any good recorded versions of it. I have probably 50 GJ CD's now, and it's not on any of them.

Hi Michael,

Here's what I have...the Jimmy Rosenberg is the only one that's in print on CD AFAIK.

Lulu Swing - Jimmy Rosenberg & Stian Carstensen - Rose Room
Lulu Swing - Häns’che Weiss Quintett - Fünf Jahre Musik Deutscher Zigeuner
Lulu Swing - Lulu Reinhardt - Tradition Manouche (Various Artists)

I also have a live Raphael Fays version...

There is a Lulu Weiss Ensemble album Guitars & Gitanes (also available through iTunes) but I've not heard it.

You probably already saw this thread on Lulu Swing ...

I posted a version of it by Cafe Noir, a GJ group that was active in Dallas in the 1980s-90s.

Not CD stuff, but youtube has a few vids!

Thanks, gents. I did see the other thread, but am looking for something I can have on CD.

John. I am sending you a PM to see if you want to get together and play, amoung other things.

There is of course, that wonderful clip on Tchavolo's "Alors Voila!" CD - which includes a CDR clip of him and Romane tearing it up!
