I saw Youssou N’Dour many times. I knew his gig would always be a contender for gig of the year. He had a fantastic band.
RIP
Jimmy Mbaye was a new name for me, even though I must have seen him live with Youssou
Here he is giving a guitar lesson. Impressive.

Now, a short gig.
Cant play guitar or speak French but sounded good.
