Mark Stewart (Paul Simon guitarist) gives a great TEDx talk


Mark Stewart is a remarkable musician.  I recently had the pleasure of seeing Paul Simon at Hyde Park for the 25th anniversary of Graceland.  Paul played the entirety of Graceland with the original line up of African musicians (more or less), but he also played a repertoire of new and old tracks with his regular band.  Mark plays guitars, saxophone and a few other bits and pieces for Paul.  He's such an engaging musician to watch, and his playing is inspiring.  Here he gives a really entertaining talk on using home made instruments. enjoy.
