The late Dennis Cowen (from Southern Medicine Drum) made a Navaho Flag Song that is sung frequently in the southwest.

The late Dennis Coan composed a song about the Navajo TRIBAL FLAG...not about the US Flag!

It's also not been accepted as THE song for the Navajo Nation. I can think of at least 5 groups, all Navajo, each with their own Navajo Flag Song.

The wording in it is somewhat incorrect in terms of certain word usage, and in some instances, the words are just a bad match for what he was trying to say. The same can be said of his gourd songs.

......but, I respected the guy.
