Common Django tunes listed by key

The following lists are arranged in order of decreasing number. As you can see, Django really favored the keys of G major and G minor. You can find the chords for these songs at http://www.djangopedia.com/ and the free play along tracks at Stephane Wrembel's website (http://www.stephanewrembel.com/). Simply save the songs in your media player, burn them to a CD, and you have yourself an instant rhythm section. Please note that I have only listed the songs that are available at both websites.
