Manoir Des Mes Reves (Django's Castle) Non-pedal

[Andy Volk]

Here's a beautiful old Django Reinhardt tune from the 40's that I worked out in A6th
lap steel tuning. Some of Django's trademark diminshed & augmented runs
lay very nicely in A6th. Thanks to Rick for suggesting it.

Thanks, guys. Glad to hear other non-pedal players enjoy Django's music as much as I do.
