Jim Pepper - Witchi Tia To

Turn up the volume, peeps... it's Today's Classic Jazz Corner, and one of my favorite tracks/albums ever. Hope you like it too.

RIP, Native American legend Jim Pepper! you did a lot for us humans.

from
Wikipedia: "Witchi Tai To" is derived from a peyote song of the Native
American Church. Pepper learned it from his grandfather, and is the most
famous example of this hybrid musical style. The song has been covered
by many other artists including Harper's Bizarre, Ralph Towner (with and
without Oregon), Jan Garbarek, Pete Wyoming Bender, Brewer &
Shipley, Larry Smith with members of The Bonzo Dog Band, Yes and Keith
Moon under the pseudonym of Topo D. Bill, an unreleased version recorded
by The Supremes in 1969, and also covered in 1973 by Quebec
singer-songwriter Robert Charlebois, himself of partly American-Indian
descent.
