Track.1: Sitting Bull

The opening track “Sitting Bull”, encapsulates the philosophy of arguably the most complex of all Plains Indian leaders. Sitting Bull was a man who knew so much more than his lifetime permitted him to reveal. He understood the importance of respect throughout the passage of life and struggled to bridge the gulf between victor and vanquished. The sonorous strains of the song honour a man whose vision was never clouded by what he saw and experienced. Widely reputed to be scornful of the white man and intolerant of fools, Sitting Bull’s laconic style belied a passion and determination that soars like freedom through the words and melody of this song.
