Thanks for that one Harry, looking forward to trying that tonight.

I just found an excellent example on YouTube:

Stochelo playing Nuages. At 0:18 he rips into the first of 2 ascending licks, very visable left hand, and some of the video his incredible right hand can be seen clearly also.

Looks like a similar thing to the other youtube i posted the link to of Django, starts on low D note, open D string, stays in first position thru each string up to the high E string, then he switches from multi fingers, to one finger to slide up to maybe high G i think... WOW.

I'm pretty sure in Mandino Reinhardt's video of the 37 Minor Swing solo he does it like this:

E ----3-2-1-------------------------------------------------1--5---77-----------
B -------- --5-4-3-2-1-0- --------------------------------3------------5---------
G --------- ---------------3-2-1-0 ----------------------1----------------5-----
D ------------------------------------4-3-2-1--0-1-2-3---- -----------------5--
A ------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------7
E -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

pretty much as Harry posted, I think the slight phrasing difference is to get two full D-U-D triplets on the B string when descending, that stuck with me as it wasn't intuitive for me at all.
