Another stunning release from very unique stylist Taylor. He tackles many stories of the plight of the Native Americans w/ great lyricism and top-notch playing here by the entire ensemble. Instrumentation of banjo, gtr, bass, drum, cornet, organ. Trance, blues, rock, stuff all his own. Play it all. No FCC’s.

*My Favorites*: All.

1. (4:28) Slow / Mid. Title track. Mellow, sad, beautiful.
2. (3:30) Mid. Rock-ish w/ elec gtr, song of loss.
