Here's Yusuf's appearance on the premiere episode of The Chris Isaak Hour on The Biography Channel. The original airdate was April 9, 2009 - with several re-airings afterward. I'd wager that the show was probably taped sometime in February, as there was an online interview, dated March 1st, referencing it. Yusuf is interviewed in an informal, casual setting and performs several songs with a a small group of musicians. Enjoy!

Interview and off-the-cuff acoustic snippets of I Love My Dog, Wild World, Morning Has Broken and Peace Train.
