Django Fakebook
The Django Fakebook is a free-to-download PDF book of about 200 songs. http://www.guitare-jazz-blues-rock.c...ook-Django.pdf I've written out a half a dozen of them i plan to post soon. This first one (Anouman) was written by Django It's not the easiest to play but the melody has that European (jazz) sound that I like. Also I've written out 'Confeesin' (I'm Confessin that I Love You)If anyone would like to post some of their favourites from this book it would make a great resource for gypsy jazz fans
Confessin' That I Love You- KC - Reynolds-Daugherty
Anouman (Django Fake Book) - Unknown Composer
Also La Vie en Rose
Smile - Charles Chaplin

The Djanjo Fakebook has already been charted in iRp format and is posted in the GYPSY JAZZ thread:

I've already downloaded these 300+ gypsy jazz tunes but I haven't found them all that useful They have the original Real Book chords that are mostly in mainstream jazz styles(not gypsy rhythm chords) Many are in completely different keys.
I've used the actual chords/key signatures from the Fake-book. I've kept the tempos slow for easier practicing/soloing over and set the style to 'La Pompe'

The GJ playlist is a random collection of manouche grills, RN charts and others, that many have found useful.
If you follow the link I posted,

You will find an iRp playlist of most all the charts, accurately transcribed from the full Django Fakebook 2008 that you sourced, each title labeled "dfb".

Thanks for this -it helps me get a better grip on how iReal pro and the forum works. And I certainly appreciate the hard work people like you have done and then offered it for public use. However I take issue slightly issue, a bit, about DFB using 'vanilla' chords. Surely what you're calling vanilla is really a european approach to jazz that is less influenced by the 'blues'. Dominant 7th chords/notes are replaced with 6ths (major or minor)

ROBIN NOLAN Style Gypsy Jazz Playlist
Many of these charts are quite similar to charts already posted. This may result in what seem like duplicate charts. All the titles in this playlist are coded "rn" so they can be easily identified.
I personally prefer playing most Robin Nolan versions over the Django Fakebook charts (the ones coded "dfb")
Robin has shared many FREE instructional videos on YouTube.

Dear PDXJAZZ
I didn't mean to be dismissive by saying I hadn't found the GJ playlist very helpful -I should have said it hasn't been that helpful yet. I'm absolutely sure it's stuffed full of very useful info. it's when you play play some of the be-bop/latin/ballads with tempos between very fast and very slow they seemed a bit removed from my idea of GJ As a lower-intermediate student I need simple tunes at a moderate tempo
