In 1964, Buffy Sainte-Marie left Greenwich Village to attend a pow wow in Saskatchewan, which deepened her passion for Native American music.
This made its presence felt in her vocal inflections, subject matter and
heightened rhythm-driven elements after she signed to Vanguard and
released her debut album. The following year, she released her second
album, Many a Mile, named after the title track by Patrick Sky.
The set featured several Child Ballads, drawn from the songs from
England, Scotland and their American variants, collected by Francis
James Child in the second half of the 19th century.
