Ma Première Guitare is a French jazz infused pop tune performed by Sacha Distel with Stéphane Grappelli on violin. It was released in 1972 as a Pathé 7-inch single (B-side Wakadou wakade) with orchestral direction by Gérard Gustin. The song blends Distel’s chanson style with Grappelli’s swing violin, giving it a light Gypsy jazz flavor. It has appeared on compilations such as The Very Best of Sacha Distel, and a later cover by Biréli Lagrène in 2021 shows the tune’s enduring appeal. Genre - French pop / chanson with strong jazz influence.
