 Birdwatching Trip Report from The Gambia
We had excellent views, together with a tutorial from Tamba on the various gulls to be seen in the cove with particular reference to Slender-billed Gull, which is one of his favourites.
Tamba was doing his usual professional job of making the trip interesting for all involved but also gave the two of us special attention when anything less ordinary was seen.
Tamba however said that he would return in the evening and we could walk around the gardens of the Kairaba next door with the hope of locating Silverbill, which was still my bogey bird.

 Tamba Hali has met many challenges on his way to PSU
Tamba's father, Henri Hali, was willing to do anything necessary to get his children across a river, and finally an ocean.
Tamba's mother stayed beside the children as they were poked and prodded and, finally, approved for American visas, about a year after they had escaped Liberia to the safety of the Ivory Coast.
So when Tamba's father would say -- in a seemingly serious tone that he really only used to scare his children into good behavior -- that he was going to send him back to Africa, a preteen Tamba found himself thinking: Maybe that's not such a bad idea.

 Tamba 4 - Verve Records
He called it a tamba partly because that is an African rhythm and partly because it is also a Brazilian plant, but mostly because it sounds like samba, which is the mother of Brazilian music.
There is another very important ingredient in the Tamba sound and it goes back four centuries to the time when the cultures of the African slaves and Portuguese missionaries began mingling with that of the Brazilian Indian.

Tamba recommended Uncle Nuhas' restaurant for good traditional Gambian food, but we chickened out because it was very small, set well back from the road down a dark passageway, and nobody else seemed to be eating there.

One year later, their irresistibly swinging version of Jorge Ben 's "Mas Que Nada" (recorded for 1963's Avanço LP) became their best-known hit -- it was used most famously by Nike in a 1998 World Cup television commercial.
Tamba Trio continued recording into the late '60s, and provided the backing for Edu Lobo 's 1967 debut.
Though the group's two albums for Creed Taylor through CTI/A&M, We and the Sea and Samba Blim, were among the best work of their career, they failed commercially.

 Tamba by Luíz Eça
This 1974 recording by Brazil's famed Tamba Trio was revolutionary for its fusion of their trademark new bossa sound with electronic, jazz, and new music elements in their mix.
This is segued into the trio's composition/improvisation "Mestre Bimba," a samba in which layered woodwinds, keyboards, and echoplex are placed in direct counterpoint to the percussion as a piano plays an angular melody to both the percussion and a bank of electronics and the rhythm pushes both deeper.
This is a sharp change in direction for the Tambas, but it is also their Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band moment.

 Luiz Eca & Tamba Trio discography -- Slipcue.Com Brazilian Music Guide
Pianist Luiz Eca (1936-1992) his Tamba Trio were key figures in the flood of bossa nova-jazz "trios" of the early 1960s; Eca later branched out into a freer jazz style, and became known for his record producing and arranging skills...
Tamba 4 "We And The Sea" (CTI/A&M, 1967)
Eca and the Tamba Trio appear in the sidelines of this charming and authoritative history of Brazilian popular music, which documents the rise of bossa nova, tracking the careers of Joao Gilberto, Antonio Carlos Jobim, Vinicius De Moraes, Nara Leao and others in a gossipy, informal narrative that's a delight to read.

Its glaze is marked with the flaws caused by ashes from the burned wood of the kiln, and no attempt was made to smooth the ridges and dents that occurred as the clay was shaped.
It is a fine example of the pottery once produced in the kilns of Tamba, a mountainous area in central Japan that today is recognized as one of the six important pottery areas of old Japan.
Kanji script, applied in white slip in a wonderfully free way on two sides of the jug, gives the name and location of a sake shop that most likely had a standing order at one of the Tamba kilns for its bottle supply.
