gypsy jazz guitarists who write new tunes

edited March 2011 in Welcome Posts: 83
I see alot of people playing the old tunes and alot making pop covers in a gypsy jazz way.(some very bad).
Which gypsy guitarists make new tunes?
Are there albums without minor swing etc.
Name a few please.
I would like to purchase a cd with new work only.

    I really like John Jorgenson's compostions, especially on Franco American Swing and One Stolen Night. Gonzalo, aforemenetioned, also writes some beautiful stuff.

    its pretty awesome. all originals. some tunes that he has been playing live for quite some time, simplicated, broken, death of a good wolf... but several new pieces that are much more classical in feel style and composition that all flow like separate movements of a larger piece. its a very mature work and it all blends together like a concept album. GET IT!!!!!
