Review by Tyler Barnum

Paris 1938 Londres 1938 is an outstanding album that showcases the exceptional talents of Django Reinhardt, Stéphane Grappelli, and the Quintette Du Hot Club De France. The album features 20 tracks, each one a masterpiece of jazz music. The album is a compilation of live performances from the band's 1938 tour of Paris and London.

The album opens with "Avalon," a lively and upbeat track that sets the tone for the rest of the album. The band's virtuosity is on full display throughout the album, with each member contributing their unique style to the music. Django Reinhardt's guitar work is particularly impressive, with his lightning-fast fingers dancing across the fretboard. Stéphane Grappelli's violin playing is equally impressive, adding a touch of elegance to the band's sound.

The album includes several classic jazz standards, including "I Got Rhythm," "Sweet Georgia Brown," and "Honeysuckle Rose." Each track is performed with precision and passion, making it easy to see why the Quintette Du Hot Club De France was such a popular band during their time.
