That's an awesome interview John. Thanks for sharing.
I got my cow horn Risha for Christmas, and I have to say I will never go back to plastic again! Fantastic! Thank you!

OK, the filmmaker gave the cat no name. That's happened before. And he gave Farid Al Atrash no name. Not so good. Strangest of all he gave you no
name. Your are "The Oud Maker". Very mystical and all that, but decidedly odd. All the same I enjoyed the film. Quite a bit about yourself, about
wood and luthiery and tools were conveyed in a very short time and in a good favorable way. And that oud sounds great!.
