I posted the fretboard diagram of this in some other thread, so I looked to see if there are videos of people playing it. Of course there are, and I watched about 194 of them before I found one even close.
Jimmy Rosenberg-Django's Improvisation #1Everyone else was sloppy and got tripped up on the same parts. Jimmy even has trouble with that monstrous lick at 1:38 but he still pretty much nails everything. Interesting that nobody can replicate an improvised performance by a guy with 2 fingers in 1937.
