Description

2001 CD, originally released in 1969, a spaced out gem from Native American folksinger and activist Buffy Sainte-Marie picked by the Wire magazine in 2000.

Written-By – Buffy Sainte-Marie (tracks: A3, A5 to B7). Notes. Sweet America ‎(LP, Album).

Sweet America was the twelfth studio album by Buffy Sainte-Marie and her last before retiring from music to work on Sesame Street and in education. The album was dedicated to the American Indian Movement and featured some songs with tribal rhythms and vocals that she was later to develop on her 1992 comeback Coincidence and Likely Stories.

Illuminations, released in 1969, is the sixth album by Buffy Sainte-Marie. Though most of the tracks did away with the backing she had used on her previous two albums, Illuminations had a completely different sound from anything she had previously done. From a basis of vocals and acoustic guitar, Sainte-Marie and producer Maynard Solomon used electronic synthesisers to create a sound that was much more experimental music than folk.
