American Indian Music - 11/24/2006 6:12:21 PM

Status: offline 		Hi there,

We are having a thanksgiving dinner here tonight, some guests coming over etc. Master wants me to put together a CD of american indian music, I"ve found a lot of flute type music, but what I had in mind was voice combined with drumming or something more powerful sounding than flute.

Would anyone have anything like that in mp3 format? If so, could you email me on here and I will hook up with you on yahoo or something..

Danke
Jali

ALthough probably not soon enough for TONIGHT...so check on amazon, they often have songs to download.

Anyway, I once asked him for some Indian music and I mused aloud if he played anything.

"Yeah. Piano," he said. "Would you like to hear?"

"Yeah! That'd be great!" I didn't know there was paino in Indian music. He sat down on the bench and played every Randy Newman song he knew.

"That wasn't what I was expecting," I told him.

"It wasn't?"

"No."

"What were you expecting?"

"Indian music."

"Well duh. Randy Newman isn't an Indian."

I've always liked Carlos Nakai who uses both the drums and flute. Matter of fact....I often fall soundly asleep to it.  ; }

Well, I'm in love with traditional native american music now, so I might follow up on some of those suggestions for the future

Thanks again

In particular, his Canyon Trilogy CD is good.

Status: offline 		I was just checking back on this thread, thanks for the extra replies :) It was interesting listening to the native american music, some of their words were very similar to sanskrit and the beats and chants sounded very similar in a lot of ways to hindu ones..(interesting huh)..or created/invoked a similar type of atmosphere..
