 Dreams of Wounded Knee Praises Two Hawks Reservation Road | Tumbleweed Faith of a Child Many Trails Trail of Freedom | Inter-Tribal Pow Wow Song - Bill Miller, Pyawasit, Myron Kokopelli's Journey My People |
| Professional Review: |
| Bill Miller's first major-label album, The Red Road, reflected both musically and lyrically his background as a Native American who grew up on a Wisconsin reservation. The wooden flute and acoustic guitars of that project are replaced by a conventional rock & roll band on the follow-up, Raven in the Snow, which reflects another side of Miller's childhood. Unfortunately, Miller's heavy-handed approach to rock includes stiff, clumsy rhythms, overstated vocals, and such hackneyed lyrics as "With the wings of sorrow, I have taken flight/Cloaked in the darkness like a thief in the night." --Geoffrey Himes |

Written on January 10, 2002 Summary: Faith Of A Child... What a wonderful song, on a truly great CD. Gives me chills evertime I listen to it. Bill Miller's songs really touch your soul. Written on May 18, 2001 Summary: Powerful and beautiful I not only have this music in my collection, but have had the experience of seeing Bill Miller in action. His music comes from his soul. It reaches out and grabs your heart. This CD is a must for anyone who appreciates the multi-layered talents of Bill Miller, or who loves Native music in general. I never tire of listening to his voice or his music.  Written on February 20, 2000 Summary: A response to the hack named Geoffrey Himes The review by Geoffrey Himes is far from accurate. It is amusing that he uses "hackneyed" and "heavy-handed" to describe the music and lyrics on Bill's finest recording, The Red Road, that includes "Tumbleweed", "Faith of a Child", and "Trail of Freedom". The CD is actually one of the best folk/country recordings ever made by a First Nations' artist. "Faith of a Child" is, perhaps, one of the most evocative and inspiring songs ever written about physical disability. The production work by Richard Bennett is flawless. But, hell, ole Geoffrey Himes is probably an insensitive lout who begrudges anyone this type of meaningful sentimentality. Judging from his "hackneyed" reviews in No Depression magazine and the Washington Post, I suspect that both he and I should remember the old adage: "Don't say anything at all about someone if you don't have something good to say." What do you think, Geoffrey? Forget this guy's review. Go buy it; you'll like it. Written on February 2, 2000 Summary: Native American girl in Texas Bill Miller is an awesome artist. I recommend his cds for anyone...just to relax to in the morning (Kokopelli's Journey) or to really get the blood pumping (The Intertribal Powwow). And "Memories of Wounded Knee" came from his heart and landed right in mine. This album is a must for anyone interested in good music. Written on January 27, 2000 Summary: One Great Album! I've heard Bill Miller play live three times since 1991. I must say he is one of the most inspirational artists i've heard. The Red Road contains songs from some of his previous albums (unfortunatly not available here) and some which are new, including native american flute music and chants. A great mix of songs with native american instruments and songs with acoustic guitar melodies. Regardless of what instrument Bill Miller is playing, he plays from the heart. An incredible songwriter and an incredible album! |
