3.0 out of 5 stars Under-documented re-release, September 12, 2001

This review is from: Authentic Native American Music (Audio CD)

This set reproduces the recordings on a quite old boxed set of phonograph records. The documentation is brief and general and pretty much useless. However, if one is already somewhat familiar with this repertoire, there are several beautiful and unusual tracks, such as the Korean War Veterans' song. There is a wholly unrecommendable condensed version of this 2-CD set which leaves out some of the original recordings (leaving out the Korean War item too).

3.0 out of 5 stars VIOLATION OF PRIVACIES...., February 3, 2002

By

This review is from: Authentic Native American Music (Audio CD)

THE NATIVE AMERICAN invited many into this sanction of the world. I do not own this CD but just in listening to the long time private ceremonial songs and dances of ritual puts an earnest feeling of VIOLATION of rights of others on my mind. I feel as though I HAVE INTRUDED upon a very personal space. One that should be left for the eyes and ears of those for whom the ritual is being performed. LISTENING for purpose OTHER THAN to learn to perform the ritual on a reservation MYSELF... is like having spectators attend my pap smear! This one should remain a PRIVATE AFFAIR!
