A hundred years of taarab in Zanzibar
This new collection presents popular Swahili music from the eastern coast of Africa — Lamu, Mombasa, Tanga, Dar es Salaam, Zanzibar and the Comoros — with archive recordings from the 1920s-1980s supplemented by contemporary recordings of special interest. Vol 1 pays a tribute to Ikhwani Safaa, Zanzibar’s (and probably Africa’s) oldest music club, celebrating its centenary in 2005.
