Buffy Sainte Marie - Lazarus

[@artredoubt3629]

Buffy brought me here. And she has carried me on her strong wings for close to 70 years. There is a PBS special now on her career, for those who like and love her music and what she stands for.

I love Buffy’s early albums. Her material is the most interesting of all the folk singers from that era.

[@malcolmjonestaylor541]

It a southern folk song about a black factory worker who was fired,and framed for trashing his office place and stealing money. Its an Urban legend from Alabama I believe in the early 1900s this may have actually happened and a song was made about it

I used to put echo effect on and crank it, Amazing

[@A_Pa-Plainjane]

That's not an echo effect, just the vibrato of her natural voice

[@owensound1000]

Ian and Sylvia also did a great version of this folk song.

[@samplebible]

Kanye is a genius for this

[@folkmusicgirl]

Any chance you could please upload Buffy's cover of "Many a Mile?" Thank you. I noticed many of Buffy's other songs from that album are uploaded but not her cover of " Many a Mile." for some reason. Whenever I thought I found it was actually just the album name indicated but not that song uploaded. (just other songs from that album).
