Just Friends
"Just Friends" is a classic jazz standard composed by John Klenner and Sam M. Lewis in 1931, known for its tender melody and romantic lyrics. While Django Reinhardt did not record this particular piece, its timeless appeal has led to numerous interpretations by jazz artists, with the gypsy jazz community frequently drawing inspiration from such standards. The song’s structure, with its beautiful chord progressions, fits perfectly within the improvisational style of gypsy jazz, making it a favorite among musicians in the genre.
