'Northland, My Land' is the full-length vinyl-debut from Cree singer-songwriter, actor and force of nature, Morley Loon (1948-1986). Drawing from his Cree culture, language and environment, Loon developed an organic style that inspired many Indigenous musicians. News of his talent even reached producers at the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) in the late 1970s. Two 7-inch EP's of original Cree language compositions were laid down first and later compiled into the 'Northland, My Land' album, which was released in 1981. Accompanied by percussion and flute, Loon taps into a spiritual place with this material, achieving a transcendent quality rarely heard in music. 'N'Doheeno,' which translates to 'The Hunter', reflects the hunting and gathering traditions of Loon's people and region. This is a great vinyl reissue.
