Recordist's notes
Nungwi beach is, by Zanzibar standards, still a relatively public beach and a good mix of crowds come here to look at the sunset. White sands, crystalline blue water, and of course, musicians everywhere. This day a boat was coming back from an afternoon excursion, probably, and there were some 4 or 5 drummers on board. As the boat got anchored they looked about ready to stop jamming, but kept on going, almost stopping again, and continuing. It was beautiful to watch and no-one on the beach wanted them to stop either...
