I was thinking of some of the ground we covered in this thread, and it just occurred to me - the other singer/guitarist I would have thought of as having a gypsy influence was Martin Carthy, himself.

If you don't hear a gypsy influence in Django, you probably would miss it in Martin's work. But I reckon its there. Something in the way he does a song like Geordie - some phrases. What is it the Spanish call it, cante hondo ....something like that. Anyway i can't prove it, but I think its there.
