- Description: The dance which follows the chanting of Awu Mungoya. Part I. Each man had a pod shaped metal bell or two tied below one knee which emphasised the stamping of that foot. Unlike the Zulu, the Gogo appear to stamp only one foot, and not alternate feet in this dance. The flute obligato lends an attractive rustic touch to the whole. This recording is part of the dance which normally follows the opening song, the sound of the leg bells and the Mulanzi flute being heard. The full dance lasts for a considerable time and only a part was recorded. Nindo praise dance for men and women with Malanzi transverse flute, 2 holed, stopped, -11.331 x 2- and Ndwala bells.

- Description: In this recording the whole group sing the song again, this time not a dance but as a song with most of the stanzas included. It is clear that the length of the song depends largely on the leaders and the leaders and the stanzas they line. There are few in Africa within our experience who can compare with these Gogo musicians in their special field. Nindo praise dance for men and women with Malanzi transverse flute, 2 holed, stopped.
