0: 44 I'm certain slaves didn't have that much room on the ship. The slave ships were described as crowded, humid, and dark (as the slaves were held below deck most of the time.

It has a wide range of sounds, which is really interesting to experiment with alone or in a group. I'm in a band, so, in coffee houses especially, we usually don't bring a full drum set with us.
