notes: 
-this is one of my brother's masters. We got into John when my bro lived in Wisconsin in early 90's where John played frequently. Real nice quality here, easily an "A-" 
-John is a great Native Amercican poet/activist who is Dylanesque lyricly (Bob is a fan of his) and speaks his words more than sings them. The band can rock hard and also play Native American soundscape type music too. I believe it may be his son that does the vocals on 4 tunes. Anyone fond of great folk/political lyrics or Native American music should check this out - great stuff/highly recommended.
