Buddy Red Bow is buried on the hill top east of Red Shirt Table, along where the badlands meet the plains, on Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, SD. His headstone is a metal guitar to remind us of his songs that helped my generation keep onto our dying grandparents and the stories of our greater grandparents and the little ones who never had a chance at a full life and died at the hands of the foul US government. Tears are real on this side of our story.

Yes, I Understand, How Us Indians, First Nations People's everywhere, are In the Mercies of the White Man, who are against Natives. And even These Days of the 20Hundreds, are much worse for All Indian People's across this Turtle Islands and Indian Country. As there are so many Races who are here Today. And many, Have no Understanding of First Nations People's, and what we did for this Country to Survive on. So yes Friends Brothers Sisters and Relatives. I Pray that each of you will try to understand, And keep teaching our Younger Generation and their families too. So that we can keep this Country and World alive. Until the end of time. When The Great Spirit, Our Creator, Calls us all home... Wopida. Live, n Love Your History, And Culture. We are The Red Man, And we will all die, Being Red, and Ready.

Does he have any kids or family left?

This was the first Buddy Red Bow song I ever heard - on KILI radio in August 2008. Then a descendent of a survivor of Wounded knee played that, and I was hooked. An aquaintance knew him and told us about him. Pilamaya

I remember listening this with my mother, grandmother, and uncle I’m so glad I found this on KZread. They’ve all made their journeys and I know that they’re all happy in the spirit world.

My grandma left me this CD

Lot of people mention what this song reminds them of, I will join. I have no native american descent but when I was 29 I was on my own spirit quest. Drove myself from NY to SD to go hiking in the Badlands. One day driving I heard this beautiful song on the radio, have never forgotten it. Always reminds me of the a amazing Badlands, South Dakota. Peace.

This is for my Father Joseph C. Picotte Sr. He passed away on December 6, 2014. In Bismarck ND. He was a fan of Buddy Red Bow. When I went home he was always playing these CD's.

RIP Eleanor Charging Crow you leave behind a legacy of love, honor, loyalty, and never leaving our side. We will carry in our hearts everything you taught us. Love you forever grandma.

His music always reminds me of driving down from the Hills to visit friends in Kyle and Wanbli.

I think of all the people who passed on in my life they are in that spirit world now.

He came to our area @ Janet McCloud's home and we just fell in love with him. My mom (Janet) used to play his tape until it wore out & we'd have to buy more. and she would do all kinds of activiites with his songs - when she passed & my husband we played his songs - it brings back beautiful songs and memories - his songs will live forever & when I go my kids will play his music. Send me off in a good way :)

Get yourself ready, get your body ready. Purify your mind while you can. Go to the sweat lodge, pray with the peace pipe. For the end is round the bend. For the days are coming and the nights are running, and soon you'll be leaving this land. And they'll wrap you in a buffalo robe and sing you this song. And they'll lay you on a bed of sage high above the ground. For the journey to the spirit world is a long one my friend. But, when you die that doesn't mean that this is the end. Yes, the journey to the spirit world is a long one my friend. And they'll lay the horse that you once rode so proud through the crowds. And the ones you love and leave behind you'll see in another time. So, get yourself ready, get your body ready. Purify your mind while you can. Go to the sweat lodge, pray with the peace pipe. For the end is round the bend. For the days are coming and the nights are running, and soon you'll be leaving this land. And they'll wrap you in a buffalo robe and sing you this song. And they'll lay you on a bed of sage high above the ground. For the journey to the spirit world is a long one my friend. But, when you die that doesn't mean that this is the end.

Dedicated to my nephew, Byron Travis Amos who made his journey. Your family will miss you greatly.

I have heard this since I was a child and I love it always It is comforting. It makes me think of my mom when she was young and strong. The end comes for us all it is how we live that determines who will be there when we die.

Finally found this again in sooooo Long. 1989 was the last time I heard this song and now again 2021.
