Buffy Sainte-Marie "The Best Of Buffy Sainte-Marie" 1987

Sainte-Marie pursued a variety of musical styles, from folk to country to experimental rock, and all are represented on this wide-ranging double-record compilation…...It doesn't all work, but there are some terrific songs, among them the Native American lament "My Country 'Tis of Thy People You're Dying," and the romantic "Until It's Time for You to Go," and a musical adaptation of a passage from a Leonard Cohen novel, "God Is Alive, Magic Is Afoot." (Beware of the abbreviated version, Vanguard 73113.) - AllMusic Review by William Ruhlmann

Thank you, good intro as I'm not familiar with her work.

Thanks, RYP.

@Art58Koen - I'd recommend you try her most recent album where she redoes some of her better known material for a better take on where she is a a musician.
