The quality of the recording isn't the best, there may be the odd fuzz of feedback occasionally.
The filming may be a bit “all over the place” and the spectators sometimes cut over the top.
But WOW. Imagine strolling through Jerusalem and coming across this. Magical.

Mahamadou Souleymane, known better by his professional name 'Mdou Moctar', is a Tuareg musician and songwriter from the small village of Tchintabaraden in Niger.
After hearing artists such as Abdallah Oumbadougou, one of the founders of the  Ishumar genre of the desert blues (or Assouf), a guitar-driven, politically conscious musical genre of the Kel Tamasheq people of North Africa's Sahara region.
Growing up in an area where secular music was all but prohibited, he taught himself to play on a homemade guitar cobbled together out of wood he found and an old bicycle cable, which he untwisted to make the strings.
He quickly became a star amongst the village youth and, in a surprising turn, his songs began to win over local religious leaders with their lyrics of respect, honor, and tradition.
His unconventional interpretations of Tuareg guitar have pushed him to the forefront of a crowded scene of Saharan music.

His first album, 'Anar', was recorded in Sokoto, Nigeria, in 2008, featuring “spaced-out” autotuned vocals and demonstrating influences from Hausa music. (The Hausa are one of the largest ethnic groups in Nigeria, Niger, Ghana, Sudan, Cameroon and many West and Central African countries).
Speaking in an interview of his first realising the interest of an audience outside of the Saharan region, Moctar said in late 2014: “I first met him (Christopher Kirkley of Sahel Sounds) on the mobile phone as he had called me…It was a weird conversation, as I thought my cousin was pulling a joke on me so I hung up. This American guy calling me, saying he wanted to work with me for my music, it just couldn’t be real. He called me again and we talked. He came to visit me in my village and also sent me a lefthanded guitar, which is very hard to find in Niger. This guitar has crossed several African countries to arrive in my hands, I have been playing it ever since!”
