The legendary Buffy Sainte-Marie is finally having her mid-70s records released on CD on July 15th. I have been waiting for years for these truly wonderful albums to be properly transferred to CD. The three albums are “Sweet America,” “Changing Woman,” and “Buffy.” That’s 33 Buffy songs altogether…. Yippee!
But there’s more…. At the end of June Buffy’s all new original song CD “Running For The Drum” will be released. Her last CD of original material was 1992's critically acclaimed "Coincidence and Likely Stories."
Back in 1979 Buffy was a guest on Perry Como’s Christmas Special. In addition to singing a wonderful duet with Perry of her beautiful “Until It’s Time For You To Go,” she also debuted “Starwalker,” which is one of Buffy’s favorite songs. As Buffy said, "It’s about the incredible energy of our contemporary Indian people. Because of what our ancestors went through for us, I sing it for all our generations past; and all our generations yet to come.”
Here’s a YouTube clip of that very special television event.
If you haven’t discovered Buffy Sainte-Marie you need to click on over to iTunes and take a listen. You’ll be hooked.
