Henri Crolla (born Enrico Crolla; 26 February 1920 – 17 October 1960) was a French jazz guitarist. Born in Naples, Campania, Italy, to a family of itinerant Neapolitan musicians, he moved with his family to Porte de Choisy in France in 1922 following the rise of fascism in Italy. One of his neighbors was a young Django Reinhardt, with whose family he became close. He died in Paris. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Henri+Crolla">Read more on Last.fm</a>
