Cant forget Harry Buffalohead, Sterling Big Bear Jr. and Johnson Taylor (sp?). They all left us some great songs.

I like a lot of Lloyd Gwin's and Curtis Hamilton's too.

Just my 49 cents worth!

For the last 20 years, I've been researching my North American Indian heritage and I've purchased lots of movies, books, and music, during that time. I love Robbie Robertson, Walela, Joanne Shenandoah, Red Thunder, Primeaux & Mike, David Carson and many more. The last CD that I've purchased was at Christmas time and it's titled Spirit Connection-Medicine Song Woman by Brenda MacIntyre. She has videos on YouTube. Check her out. She is good.

How bout POWWOW songs, not really concerned with contemporary Native music, although I'm sure these artists have their own talent.

What about The Late Perry Lee Botone Jr.
There were some KILLER songs that come from him. RIP. As well as that Ol' man Leonard Cozad (RIP)

Also The late Ruben (Kahoo) Burgess. There are some KEEN songs that not many people have heard from that guy.

Berky Monoessy- self explanatory

Any more?

Oh yea, I have lots of pow-wow songs. In fact, I purchase a CD from a drum team just about each time I go to a pow-wow.

I have several of Eastern Bull's. I have Red Wolf Singers, I have one from the Halawia Saponi Drum team, I have one on cassette with several Western Drum Teams, and I have one called American Indian Dancers CD. It has the Fancy Dance Song performed by the Cedartree Singers, Butterfly Dance, performed by Twea, Northern Traditional Song perfromed by Cedartree Singers, Hoop Dance Song, Intertribal Song, Woman's Southern Cloth, Sidewinder, and I have pow-wow songs by Ulali. I have over 500 CDs and the ones that I don't play everyday, I have in several containers under my bed.

It makes no difference to me either/or.


What's a drum team? Is it like a drum line?

And, WhoMe, whenever I go to a pow-wow and there is an Indian recording artist, I purchase his or her CD. I have two autographed CDs from Arvel Bird and one from Ed Wind Dancer. I think Ed autographed the one I got from him but it's been about 5 years ago now. Do you want me to fax proof of the autographs to you? If you do, send me your fax number and I'll try to remember to do it on Monday when I go by the office. And I have a CD from Daniel Hicks called First Flight by Black Raven. Daniel sent me the CD through mail. I can prove that too, if you like. Lastly, I have Jamie Coon's new CD that I ordered from Amazon.com but Jamie and I send each other emails sometimes because she is kind enough to respond to her fans, personally. Can prove that too!

You tell me. I'm here to learn. I'm not claiming to know it all. If I used the wrong word or phrase, I'll appreciate you correcting me.
