NATIVE AMERICAN INDIANS
VA - They Are Native American Indians CD1+CD2 (A Butterboy Compilation) + Bonus VA - Sacred Spirit I & II, Chants And Dances Of The Native Americans [1994 +2000]
They are many notable musicians and singers, who are from Peoples indigenous to the contemporary United States, including Alaska Natives, Native Hawaiians, and Native Americans in the United States. Native American identity is a complex and contested issue. The Bureau of Indian Affairs defines Native American as having American Indian or Alaska Native ancestry. Legally, being Native American is defined as being enrolled in a federally recognized tribe or Alaskan village. Ethnologically, factors such as culture, history, language, religion, and familial kinship's can influence Native American identity. Historical figures might predate tribal enrollment practices and would be included based on ethnological tribal membership, while any contemporary individuals should either be enrolled members of federally recognized tribes or have cited Native American ancestry and be recognized as being Native American by their respective tribes. Contemporary unenrolled individuals are listed as being of descent from a tribe. (Wikipedia)
I have only included artists that have been named as be Native American Indians, not self proclaimed indigenous artists. Here are 50 tracks that show the impact of Indians in rock music. The most famous being Charlie Patton and Link Wray. Also included in this post is a wonderful set of Chants And Dances Of The Native Americans" highlighting the traditional sound that can be found in many of the tracks Included in " They are Native American CD1 & CD2 ". Whether strait out rock, bluegrass or blues there is no doubt that Native American Indian artists, traditional and Modern added a special flavor of American Rock and Blues...

This is so cool. I was just looking at some albums by Native Americans and was wondering what the influence on American Rock and Roll has been. I am looking forward to hearing this! But Damn you! Another rabbit hole to chase... Can't wait...
ReplyDeleteHi Pol.
DeleteI first posted this in 2019 (I think) it was well received then, and this repost sees as popular now. Glad you think it's cool.
Cheers.
