Creation's
Journey
from Smithsonian
Folkways
This is an ethnographically
valuable recording, not really designed for entertaining listening. It was
created as a companion to the book Creation's Journey: Native American
Identity and Belief [Smithsonian Institution Press, 1994]. The first six
cuts record dance music from the Blackfoot, Comanche, Navajo and White
Mountain Apache tribes. However, cut seven, Constitution Breakdown
is traditional fiddle, unrelated to the tribal music that has gone before.
Album also contains a Cherokee rendition of a protestant hymn by the
Kingfisher Trio.
