About the Artists

Buddy Red Bow, Lakota, Pine Ridge Reservation, South Dakota

Listen to Sample MP3

Buddy Red Bow was one of the first and greatest of native contemporary musicians. He was a personal friend of Milt's--in fact, Milt was the first person to record Buddy and put "Indian Love Song" on a little 45" record.

This special Oyate "deal" is an hour-long documentary produced on Buddy's life and music for KILI FM Radio on the one-hour anniversary of Buddy's death.

I (Jamie) remember writing this program and worrying all along that the script was too thin, that it wasn't working. Milt kept saying to me "Just wait--there is the music--a lot of music." Finally, I handed him the script, he produced the show, did the final mix, and handed me back a cassette copy and said, "Now listen". He left the house and I popped the tape in and listened. An hour later, when the program ended, Milt came back in and I was sitting on the couch crying like a baby. "It's so beautiful," I sobbed.

Buddy Red Bow was made up of all heart. A bigger than life guy whose music reflects this. We miss you, Buddy!

 

We miss you, Buddy!
