" I filmed the concert of Mohammed Jimmy Mohammed Trio in April 2006 without planning to turn it into a film. Han Bennink had already played with Jimmy in Addis-Abeba, and made a special trip from the US to do this concert with them. An excerpt appearred as part of a special event honoring Ethipia.
