I'm wondering if that were tones or slaps he was doing in that girl's behind...

@Waraba: It's what Famoudou calls danba on one of his discs and what I see as the traditionl origin of the "dundunba" "takonani" (we had this discussion...). Kankan is the biggest town or only city in Upper Guinea. Have a look at google earth or something like that: take Kouroussa and Siguiri (both next to the Niger river), between the two you will find Niandankörö. Follow the river that meets the Niger there (Milo river) to the south and you will see Kankan. Or take Kouroussa and follow the RN1 direction south-east...

@David: It's normally slaps d;-)

Thanks, Afoba
