In this clip Django’s brother Joseph<\/a> demonstrates his considerable skill as a soloist and composer. The unusual flat top guitar he is playing was supposedly built by Joseph himself. In many photos from after Django’s death, Joseph can be see holding this same guitar. Also take note that Joseph’s accompanist, Eugene Vees, is playing American style flat four rhythm on an archtop guitar. These are all characteristics of the post-Django era in Paris, in which musicians tended to stray away from Django’s style and repertoire.\n
