TWO - Incongruous music!I

We got here eventually. Today is Wednesday, 5 March and we are at Lucias Guest House, Sinquerim, Candolim.
Three times we have been serenaded, the first night in Sri Lanka we had a meal in the evening when three musicians wearing flopping straw hats and batik shirts, played "Island in the Sun" and various other 1950s favourites. There was two guitars and a little drum, and it was like the Mexican bands we heard several years ago at Playa del Carman.
The night before last, we had the pleasure of three more musicians, this time in Goa, wearing black sombreros. We were at an excellent resaurant in Candolim eating delicious tandouri kingfish. One played a trumpet, one a drum and one a guitar. They played the Percy Sledge standard, 'When a Man Loves a Woman', and 'On the Banks of the Ohio'. Occasionally the trumpet player switched to a violin. Outside, was the dark beach and the Arabian Sea.
Last night, over the loudspeaker in yet another restaurant, we listened to more 1960s standards, the kind I used to dance to at parties in 1960s and 1970s.
