Hopefully more of this old footage gets realeased. It's really cool to see FK playing in his prime. Anyone know which strong man rhythm this is?

thanks for posting

the other videos are awesome. I mean the rest of the videos by that user.

beside the two you already posted, there's three videos with Noumoudy Keita on solo and Famoudou on the sangban. These are the first Noumoudy Keita videos I have ever seen.

I haven't got a name for this rhythm (there aren't for every dundunba). But it's played in Hamana, no record or ballet invention! Very nice one, simple but melodic, I played it once in Babila.

Billy calls it Bilakörödundun and says that according to his father it really was only played for Bilakörös before. Today it's not. They play it with the other dundunbas in some villages.
