Werner Graebner writes in the liner notes of<span> <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Nyota-Black-Star-Musical-Club/dp/B000000ZRW/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1215190376&sr=8-1" target="_blank">Nyota: Classic Taarab Recordings from Tanga</a> </span>(Globestyle ORBCD 044, 1989):<br/><span><br/></span></p> <blockquote> <div>… It was the strong cross-fertilization between <span>taarab </span>and dance music, the interchange of musicians and instruments, which produced the excitement of the new style and made it acceptable to the broader public. the Black Star Musical Club introduced guitar and bass guitar into <span>taarab</span>, the guitar often being played in the style well-known through Tanzanian and Zaïrean dance music. The normal line-up of the group featured the following instruments: 2 guitars, accordion, organ, <span>taishokoto</span>, bass guitar, <span>rika </span>and <span>manyanga</span>. Influences on the rhythms came from dance music (samba and rumba) as well as from local <span>ngoma </span>(dances of the different ethnic groups resident in Tanga and the vicinity)…</div> </blockquote> <p>Werner credits Black Star vocalist Shakila (<span>née </span>Tatu Saïdi) with establishing a new vocal style shorn of the melisima and vibrato characteristic of classical <span>taarab</span>. Shakila and her husband left Black Star in 1971/72 to establish a new group, Lucky Star Musical Club, which is featured along with Black Star on <span>Nyota</span>.
