 Blind John O'Gunn is a 19 year old boy who I discovered when I travelled to Mali.

I found this young boy playing guitar and singing near the Djinguereber Mosque in Timbuktu, so I went and talked to him.

Apparently he learned english by guiding tourists around the city, and one day he found a mp3 player with a john lee hooker album, and ever since then, it's the only music he listens to.

In his announcement card he says he accepts donations in either "cash or batteries". 

So I sat down with him, put my mp3 player in record mode and improvised some solos over his guitar playing, singing and stomping! 

So this is little John's only recording so far.
There are a few more songs that will be published soon.
