King, Les Paul, Stevie Ray Vaughan, [[Music/BlackSabbath Tony Iommi]], [[Music/LedZeppelin Jimmy Page]] and Music/RichardThompson have all gone on record stating their great admiration of his abilities.

When he was 18, his left hand was severely damaged by a fire started in his caravan, causing him to lose much of his ability to move his ring and pinkie fingers. Nevertheless, he continued to play music on the guitar, adjusting his style in a way that prevented his handicap from limiting his abilities. Later on, he was introduced to {{Jazz}} music from the United States-- particularly the recordings of trumpeter Music/LouisArmstrong-- and soon met a very talented Parisian violinist named Stéphane Grappelli who shared similar interests. Impressed with each other's talents after a jam session together, they formed an all string band called the [[FiveManBand Quintette du Hot Club de France]], composed of Django and Stéphane as the lead players, and a rhythm section composed of two guitarists (one of which was Django's brother Joseph) and an acoustic bass played by Louis Vola. They became the biggest act of the French Jazz community, with records that reached audiences across the Atlantic.

The Quintette broke up during [[UsefulNotes/WorldWarII the Nazi occupation of France]], with Grappelli fleeing to England while Django elected to remain in Paris. After the war, Django briefly reunited with Grappelli for another tour in the UK before heading to the United States for a tour with famed Jazz composer Music/DukeEllington in 1946. Django returned to France in 1949, spending the rest of his days in retirement. He died of a brain hemorrhage in Paris on May 16th, 1953.
