Northern Cheyenne Flute
" I made my first flute in the summer of 1977," Joseph Fire Crow begins the
liner notes to his surprisingly textured and haunting collection of Northern
Cheyenne flute songs, "Fire Crow." Few, if any, of contemporary music's most
sincere performers-from Bob Dylan to Lucinda Williams and whomever else-can
boast of the summer when they twined the strings along their first self-made
guitars. This speaks to the heart of Fire Crow's achievement, as each song
resounds with the urgency of a confession to the universe. There are no neon
hairdos or flashy synthesizers gunning for pop-chart glory here. This is
music made with a man's hands and residing within him, a music of the sort
of honesty and integrity that eludes the vast majority of listeners in
modern western culture. |
