Django is an album by the Modern Jazz Quartet, first released on 12-inch LP in 1956.

The album commences with Lewis' sublime and serene title track "Django," dedicated to the memory of guitarist extraordinaire Django Reinhardt. This musical paean aptly recaptures the essence of Reinhardt's enigmatic gypsy-like nature, especially evident within Jackson's leads, which emerge from the thoughtful opening dirge with a refined, warm tone throughout.

Django (The Modern Jazz Quartet), 2013. The Modern Jazz Quartet. La Ronde Suite (ms), 09:40.

Only 3 left in stock (more on the way). Only 4 left in stock (more on the way). It was a great memory. My son Django Valledor was born the same year this record came out. My husband loved it then and named our son Django.
