Actually django and he didn&#8217;t get along well because Django was jelouse at him , also very different personality.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway Django wouldn&#8217;t get along with Gadjo (non-gypsies).<\/p>\n<p>He played with Jimmy Rosenberg at around 1990. He was very old by then but it was great to see him.<\/p>\n<h4>Jean Django Reinhardt (Born 1910 in Belgium)<\/h4>\n<p>I guess No need to tell you who this is , right? We all thank him for giving us life !!<\/p>\n<p>By the way, he was born in Belgium officially , because gypsies at this time go around belgium for winter and Django was born when they were there.<\/p>\n<h4>Joseph Nin-Nin Reinhardt (Born 1912 , france)<\/h4>\n<p>The brother of Django , Used to play rhythm guitar for Django but he also played cool solos .<\/p>\n<p>After Django passed away , he said &#8221; I&#8217;ll never play guitar &#8221; and retired.
