Joseph Reinhardt

Joseph Reinhardt (1 March 1912 – 24 February 1982) was a French musician who was the younger brother of guitarist Django Reinhardt. He played rhythm guitar on most of Django's pre-war recordings, especially those with the Quintette du Hot Club de France between 1934 and 1939. He was a pioneer of the amplified jazz guitar in France and performed for years on a home-made instrument of his own design.
