Sainte-Marie, Buffy - Power In The Blood (CD)

Buffy Sainte-Marie is an international superstar performer, an anti-war and rights icon, and a leading songwriter who has given the world classics like 'Up Where We Belong' and 'Until It's Time for You to Go'.





The lists of artists who have covered her songs is a true accolade to her gift to write numbers that so vividly and movingly bring into focus how we can all be touched by subjects like love, war, rights, religion and mysticism.

Elvis Presley, Barbra Streisand, Neil Diamond, Donovan, Francoise Hardy, Cher, Joe Cocker and Bobby Darin are a few of the virtual who's who of the music business who have tapped into her rich catalogue.



This set of 15 of her greatest hits is testimony to her never-tiring prowess as a prolific songwriter, peace campaigner and Native American heroine. Listen to Universal Soldier and try to disagree.

The Pathfinder: Buried Treasures offers with the benefit of hindsight a glimpse into this prolific artist at a time when she was defining the protest music genre that underscores the 1960Œs. Buffy struggled to get airplay at the time, not knowing until 2006 when she discovered that both the CIA and FBI had kept her under surveillance during the Johnson and Nixon administrations, who actively sought to gag many artists in the media who were critical of the government as well as the Vietnam war. This collection of 33 songs is a vibrant travelogue through the mind of an icon. It offers a distinct and refined listening experience that is a must have for any folk, country or blues aficionado fascinated with the music that denotes the complex of inter-related cultural and political trends of 'The Sixties' which continued to develop throughout the 20th century and beyond.

On her first album in 13 years, folk icon and Native American activist Buffy Sainte-Marie comes out swinging. She takes on corporate greed over the furious tribal beat of 'No No Keshagesh' and makes effective use of audio samples of pow-wows on both the blistering 'Working for the Government' and the dance-floor-ready 'Cho Cho Fire.' With those three cuts followed by a gorgeous, lilting reworking of her own 'Little Wheel Spin and Spin,' Running for the Drum boasts a simply phenomenal opening sequence. Those songs speak to the depth of Sainte-Marie's focused folk-singer outrage and her still-razor-sharp ear for a memorable pop hook.



The lead track 'Keshagesh' means Greedy Guts. It's what you call a little puppy who eats his own and then wants everybody else's.
