Tribal Waters: Music from Native Americans

Amazon.com
Another in Earthbeat!'s Tribal Collection series, Tribal Waters is a marriage of contemporary and traditional sound. It's a celebratory synthesis, bringing together nature sounds, bells, spoken word, chant, drumming, horns, flute, and keyboards. Presented by artists of multiple tribes (largely from the western United States), each song is a meditation and prayer, a call for mindfulness. Tribal Waters as a whole is like a river running through all terrain, weather, depth, and velocity. It can be enjoyed as a centering touchstone as the listener allows the sound to unwind and heal while he or she is bathed in beauty. This collection is a reminder of our connection to one another as well as to the earth, and of the great reverence we must hold for that which sustains us. --Paige La Grone

Customer Reviews:

More music, less talk.......2007-01-04

I buy CDs like these (Native American flute and drum) for the music. I find it very soothing when I want to relax or as background music at small get-togethers. On this CD somewhere towards the end of the first track or maybe the middle of the second track, a man begins giving a speech or maybe a sermon about clean water and how soon we won't have any, yadda, yadda, yadda. It's not that I'm insensitive to the serious current threats to our environment. But I thought I was buying soft music to relax to.

not what I expected.......2006-05-18

Based on other reviews, and my love of many Native American recordings, I thought I would love this CD. I was wrong. Just not my style. Next time I'm definitely going to have to listen to the tracks before I buy. A few of the songs are nice, but most just not what I like.

A spiritual bathing.......2005-09-07

If you seek the elusive tranquility in a hectic life, this selection will bring it to you with its balance of natural and musical sounds, complimented by sage and poetic thoughts.

looking for music to remember the Lewis&Clark expedition.......2005-08-02

I haven't listen to the whole CD yet, but from what I could gather, the name and the music samples make me think this is the best music companion for my trip down the Columbia river. I'll be on the river 200 years to the date when Lewis&Clark continued their journey from the Snake River, into the Columbia and finally the ocean.

I'll let you know if it work indeed.

The Best Ever!.......2004-04-08

This is the first CD I have ever bought, or heard, from Native Americans. Now, I listen to it over and over and over again, no matter what I am doing. It is very beautiful with a variety of calming, moving sounds. You can feel the music move right through you, clensing your mind, body and senses.
I definitely recommend this CD above all others.
