Native American Music

My significant other's father just bought a wooden "flute" which looks just like one of those recorders they used to make us play in grade school. Anyway, he's just nuts about this thing and keeps calling it his "Indian flute." He's interested in finding some Native American music that incorporates woodwind instrumnets. Do you have any leads? Thanks.

I recommend the catalogs of Coyote Oldman and R. Carlos Nakai. Two of my favorites by Coyote Oldman: Compassion and Tear of the Moon and Nakai: Big Medicine and Journeys vol.3.

Budrew & Rec, do those recordings also include percussion? Thanks (I'm a big fan of all kinds of percussion).

The Coyote Oldman albums do not. However, Nakai does various collaborations and some of them do include percussion. Go to Amazon.com and listen to some sample of the various albums. I don't recall offhand which ones do.
