The Song of Crazy Horse was released in New Zealand on the Pye label in 1973 and won the Recording Arts Talent Awards (RATA) Album of the Year Award in 1974.
US singer-songwriter J.D. Blackfoot arrived in New Zealand in the early Seventies with his recently married Kiwi wife.
He already had the workings of this album's 18-minute title track which he recorded at Stebbing Studio in Auckland with Tony Baker co-producing, arranging and conducting.The title track is a saga about the life of the Oglala Sioux Chief Crazy Horse.
There is a stellar band of New Zealand jazz players on hand too: drummer Frank Gibson Jnr, bassist Billy Kristian, pianist Mike Walker, guitarist Bob Jackson, saxophonist Jimmy Sloggett and Baker playing sax and organ.
