Zanzibar (instrumental)**+[13:01](E. Lobo): Jazz instrumental augmented by Afro-Carribean style vocal improvisation. Latin
percussion is the foundation that spans across the whole track. An ambitious guitar solo, spirited trumpet solo and a cool
organ solo are all uplifting. Philip Bailey exhibits his percussion prowess and does not disappoint. Alto saxophone layered
on the top toward the end adds a nice touch.
Also of note: Clocking in at just over 13 minutes, Zanzibar is the longest EW&F song featured on any album, but despite
the length, this song goes through enough changes as well as captures the ability of each musician that it doesn't get redundant.
