Hi all,
Unfortunately we couldn't find a host for this month, so I will just post a quick idea for keeping us busy, but I won't be very active as a 'real' host picking a tune and commenting on everything. Would be nice if we can play that role together.
I have been a fan of Gypsy jazz since I got to know about Django Reinhardt & Stephane Grappelli and the Hot Club de France many moons ago:

So for this month B&I TOTM I would like to propose to play whatever song you want, but with a Gypsy style backing track.
Many of those backing tracks can be found on the Tube, for instance here:

I can for sure join with many old tracks (no new recordings from me, I lost my place to make recordings).
Let's see what you guys come up with this month. :mrgreen:
