On American Indian Music: A proud heritage

A few American Indian music favorites on my iPod, including one by Baha’i Kevin Locke. -gw

Muscogee Creek Stomp Dance, Proud Heritage, a Celebration of Traditional American Indian Music

These songs are about expressing God’s love for one another, also about the elders, those who have passed on, and their being with us in spirit.  (from the liner notes)

House Made of Dawn Light, Douglas Spotted Eagle, Closer to Far Away

The First Flute Song, Kevin Locke, The First Flute

Birds, the brook, the flute, and a story…

Praises, Bill Miller, The Red Road

Wash Your Spirit Clean, Walela, Walela

Classic album. Walela is the Cherokee word for Hummingbird and the symbol of inspiration for this family of women singers
